Re: Roku Channel Won't Play Anything At All

Jump to solution

In case it's helpful to anyone else, my problem is that my roku was associated with a US-based account but I am using it in Canada. I factory reset and then created a new account in Canada and everything works fine.

Would be great if the app could share an error message rather than just silently failing like it does today.

Roku channel not working TCL TV

Jump to solution

I have a TCL Roku 4K tv

up until this week the Roku channel worked fine.

now when I try to play anything, the page just refreshes and nothing loads.

I have checked. The channel is up to date, the tv is up to date. I have deleted the channel, restarted the tv, re-installed the app multiple times. 
nothing works.

my older Hisense HD tv works fine, so it’s kind of weird that the newer tv isn’t working properly.

i’m in Canada if that matters.

I’m in Canada. My account is Canadian. I did a factory reset of the tv, as suggested by someone else, and it worked.

@RokuKariza-D I don't see GC Build... I made the account in the United States and I am still in the United States. The Channel is not working on either of my devices. I factory reset the TVs and made a new roku account. It's still not working

Please investigate:
