Go into settings, system, system update.  You may have gotten a bad or partial update.

I am having the same issue. I’ve restarted the device three time and completed a software update and it runs normal but nothing really happens.

I installed channels on my computer account. I then went to software update -where it will also update your Roku channels. I can see it scrolling thru and acting like it adds the new channels, but it doesn't show them on the Home screen. So I know my network connection is good. It just wont run any channel.

Flagging this to bring it to the attention of Roku employees @RokuDanny-R, @RokuKariza-D, & @RokuMary-F

But in the meanwhile, please help them out, if you have not already, by reporting your:

  • Roku model and model number
  • Exact Roku software version and build installed. 

You'll find these via Settings > System > About.

And if your problem relates only to specific channels, please also report:

  • Affected channel name(s)
  • Channel software version and build number (To determine: Highlight channel in channel grid, press * on Roku remote.)
