Hi, Community users!

Thanks for reaching out here in the Roku Community.

In addition to what our Community Guru provided above, the app Comet TV is no longer being offered on the Roku streaming platform. 

If you want this available on the Roku streaming platform, we highly recommend contacting the channel provider and letting them know you'd like their app back. 

For more information, read about Why is an app no longer available on my Roku streaming device? | Official Roku Support

For future announcements, you may visit the Roku Blog

Warm regards,
Carly

Comet TV all will not connect to Roku

Jump to solution

Comet TV app won’t connect on Roku. Other apps are working. Comet TV works on other devices fine so it isn’t down. Tried resetting Roku, the TV, the WiFi connection, pretty much everything.  Any ideas?

Do you mean how it just says "Back Soon" forever?

I had the same issue with Comet TV a few days ago! Rebooting everything didn't help me either. Did you try removing and re-adding the Comet TV channel? That finally worked for me. In the meantime, you can browse online stores for cool black door handles to spruce up your place while you wait to get Comet TV back on!

Some providers feed their content to different devices from different servers (not always even located in the same place), so the fact it works on other devices doesn't mean anything specific for Roku devices.

I've had the same problem on both my Roku devices.  It shows a "Be Back Soon" animation in an infinite loop.  Sometimes it'll show what's going to be appearing next in a blue box on the bottom of the screen, showing that it's talking to a service somewhere, but the actual program never appears.

I've tried rebooting, uninstalling/reinstalling the app, and nothing changes.  I last remember successfully watching Comet last Friday (6/21)

I didn't have Comet installed since I have a strong OTA station with it, but I just installed it to test. It works no problem on my Premiere 3920.

Appears to be fixed.  I guess "Soon" meant a few days.  🙂

I just discovered this also. I watch this every day. It says it has been removed by Roku.
