Re: Channel doesn't load and goes to home screen

Jump to solution

I'm having the same problem as well. TCL Roku TV 48FS3750 running OS 10.0.0 build 4209-08 (installed 06-30-21). Attempting to launch the Youtube channel (NOT YoutubeTV!) brings up the channel icon as expected, but then crashes back to the home screen after a few seconds. No error message or other info. I've verified the OS is up to date, and removed and re-installed the Youtube channel. I've also done the weird theme-swap thing some are suggesting. Nothing fixes the problem.

Done I followed all instructions YouTube still not loading.  I have 3 devices one in family room first floor working fine but the other 2 upstairs not loading YouTube what could be the issues? I restated the modem and did all the fixes . I tried other channels they loaded fine EXCEPT FOR  #YOUTUBE

ATTENTION:  If you still cant load YouTube/YouTube (or other apps):

1) Check for updates:  Settings/System/System update/Check now

2) Restore the default theme:  Settings/Theme/Restore default theme

3) Use a simple screensaver:  Settings/Theme/Screensavers/Roku Digital Clock/Set as screensaver

4) Load YT/YTTV/apps

** EVEN IF YOU ALREADY PERFORMED THESE STEPS, DO THEM AGAIN **

To be clear, this is a workaround, not a solution (which would require a firmware update).



IT TAKES ME BACK TO HOMESCREEN

Re: YouTube won’t launch on Roku

Jump to solution

Well the time has come to ditch this cheap TCL TV and Roku piece of **bleep**. HBOMax was slowwww and stopped using on this craptv until a week ago when the update came now it is fast they really fixed the problem. Now Youtube!!!! This continous update of the software without telling the user (FORCING US TO UPDATE IN ORDER TO USE OUR TV) has really got my nerve, am done with ROKU, no m3u player now, no youtube and no connection from my laptop to the TV wirelessly not even from a cellphone (android), even live tv cuts in the middle and goes back to the main menu, what is wrong with you!!!!  I now programming is though but come on!!!  You sell our viewing habbits, spy on the installed apps and cannot afford a deal with google for youtube and youtubetv.  I will use the tv as a monitor or give it away someone that has no need for a "Smart" or "Roku" powered **bleep** product.

I know you dont reply to angry customers but if someone experiences the same problems like me any advice is welcomed from the community

My device is a TCL-32S305

                         ROKU 5140X

                OS ver:    10.0.0   compilation 4209-08

By the way the device worked fine till  3:00 pm  (today  Sept-20th)

Roku TV: YouTube channel crashes back to the home screen

Jump to solution

09-20-2021.

I have an Insignia Roku TV model NS-32DR310NA17 and the YouTube channel/app (v 2.20 build 93005146) started to crash on start-up today. No error message, it just crashes to the home screen. I have tried ALL the recommended steps I've seen listed for similar issues short of a complete system reset. 

PLEASE get this issue resolved.
