Re: Global Channel crashing to home screen

Don't return your Roku. It's coming from Global. Roku company has contacted Global, but so far no response.

GLOBAL channel doesn’t stay on and bounces back to Home Screen

Jump to solution

Question for assistance:

when I open the Global channel it will stay open for around 20 seconds and then I’m returned to Rokus’home screen’. (Global will not stay open)
A)I’ve tried to remove and reinstall the channel b) looked for updates c) restarted Roku d) signed out and back in via Shaw Blue Curve TV 

The issue is the same using the Roku in my bedroom

All the other apps work fine

Hi,

I am having the same issue and so are a number of others.  There is another link lower with more of the same on it.  I got a reply back that it is a Global issue and waiting for them to deal with it.

Don't bother trying to restart/reset etc we can't fix it without a flick of a switch at Global!

cheers and thanks to the feedback I received.

New on this so nice to get some quick response!

cheers

I am having the same issue. I do not have cable and watch the news on global from the app.  The app seems to kick me out after a couple of seconds. for the last couple of days. 

Hopefully Roku will get an answer from Global.
