Why does Roku keep messing with channel line up? Do any of you intelligent execs make these decisions to number channels and then put them out of numerical order? This is so ridiculous! I hate my Roku tv and if I could afford it Roku would be out of my life! Every time you correct or last stupid idea you come up with another! Put the channels in numerical order again!!!! Duh!!!!

Hi @Thisisstupid100,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention!
We understand your sentiments. Kindly give the following steps a try:
- Navigate to the Channel logos in your Live TV guide.
- Press the * button to open the Channel Options menu.
- Select the "Sort channel list" setting.
- Choose between "As recommended by Roku" and "By Channel Number".
- Select your preferred option to apply the changes.
By default, this setting is "As recommended by Roku," which removes channel numbers from the Guide display. If you prefer a sequential order for the channel numbers to be displayed, select "By Channel Number."
We hope this helps. Let us know if you have further inquiries.
All the best,
Janadee

Correcting Live TV Menu List Order
Hello,
I've tried several of the managing channels list options Roku provides and none of the 'how to' lists work.
For some reason, a month or two ago, my antenna Broadcast channel list rearranged itself. I want to restore it. Several channels with the same number have shifted to the top of the channel list and I want to put them back into order. I wrote all the steps and followed them. No go. It just got me to the 'hide' level for that channel with no way to edit the list order itself.
I just want all the channels to be in a proper numerical order.
Any suggestions will be gratefully accepted.

Prevent channel order from changing?
Super irritated about this--on the last update Roku completely changed the channel order I had set. Is there a setting somewhere to prevent that from happening? I'm sure it's because some streaming services paid them to make apps more visible but it's a poor way to treat customers.

Re: WHY THE **bleep** HAVE YOU REARRANGED & CHANGED THE CHANNEL NUMBERS???
I know HOW TO SORT THE CHANNELS! BUT Roku rearranged the channel NUMBERS! & GROUPED A BUNCH OF STUFF THAT I DO NOT WATCH INTO MY LINEUP! As an example, the 'ElectricNow' channel used to be at 349, NOW IT'S AT 287! They have changed all of my streaming channel numbers, now I have to scroll through the fricking lineup to find the channels I like. I did put some on my favorites list but not all! I have had it!

I try to keep an updated channel list on this thread https://community.roku.com/t5/Channels-viewing/Roku-Channel-Live-TV-Guide-List-Reference-List/m-p/78....
Roku occasionally reorganizes/reassigns channel numbers. (not very often).
