Global Channel crashing to home screen

Jump to solution

TV model: Onn Roku TV 100012584-CA

I bought this TV a little over a month ago. 

Even though I do not have a TV service provider, I was still able to watch Global News on the Global channel on my Roku TV without issue since buying the TV until yesterday. 

This issue is only with the Global channel and not others (YouTube, etc. are working just fine.) I will click on it, the channel will load, but then it will crash after a few seconds, bringing me back to the home screen.

I removed the Global channel, restarted the TV and re-installed it many times without any change. I also did a factory reset and the issue is still there. 

I have a wireless internet connection on my TV, I also tried restarting my modem and plugging it in my Roku TV directly and it doesn't work.

I'm not sure what the issue is. I've looked through other posts to find similar issues but the advice is always to reinstall the channel (which I've already done) or to factory reset. 

Is there a fix for this? 

Thank you,

Anyone else having problems with Global app on Roku? It loads for about 5 secs and then goes back to the home screen. I'm subscribed to Telus and the app works on my tablet...

Re: Can't open any channel, kicked back to home screen

Jump to solution

Hi Kariza:

 

GlobalTV is the only channel this is happening to. Things I have tried:

Restarted my TV

turned off/restarted Roku

Took batteries out of the Roku and put new batteries in

Removed the channel, turned off/restarted Roku and added the channel back

Restarted Modem although it can't be the problem because all other internet services are unaffected

Checked all connections.

I have not done a factory reset

I'm having the exact same issue, and I have also removed the Global channel and re-added it, with no change. Still get kicked back to home screen after a few seconds. 

 

Anyone have suggestions??
