HiSense is asking me to rollback Roku Software

Hello everyone, 

My Hisense TV is not working as intended, the image flash and we can see it in double.

The TV is less than a year old, I have 6 years of warranty through Costco but first year needs to be serviced by HiSense.

They are telling me to rollback to Roku Version 11.5, it’s currently on version 12.0. They are asking me to contact Roku by phone to have more information on how to proceed?

If I reset the TV, how do I block auto updates so it does not go back to 12.0?

Thanks

Hi @PunchOut911,

Thanks for posting, and welcome here in the Roku Community!

We would like to know more about this issue to better understand this. Could you please send us an image with the "image flash" you have mentioned? In addition, when did you first notice this issue start to occur? Furthermore, is this display issue happening to a specific channel of generally throughout the Roku platform?

Let us know.

All the best,

Re: HiSense is asking me to rollback Roku Software

Hello, when you reset the TV so it goes to a previous Roku version, there is no issue but it automatically updates back to 12.0

It is happening on all platforms, Roku Menu or even hdmi inputs.

Here is HiSense email : 

Thank you for contacting Hisense Customer Support. 

 We have received an update that this issue can be resolved by getting the ROKU software update 11.5 version only , since this tv model is a ROKU TV which, since it runs on ROKU's own software, you would be required to contact them for the update.

You can contact ROKU to confirm the steps required  via  ROKU customer service number 1-816-272-8106.

 If you have any further concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us accordingly via email or our customer service line 1-855-344-7367 Monday-Friday 8am-8pm EST. 

 Best regards

 Andre

Thanks for the clarifying, @PunchOut911.

No worries. The appropriate Roku team would be more than willing to sort this out for you, but we need to gather your device's information first. Kindly provide us with the following information:

  • Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and OS version. (this can all be found in Settings > System > About)

We'll be anticipating your response.

Kind regards,
Carly
