Hisense 65R6E1 Loop screen & usb updater

Jump to solution

I activated the "awake" mode and now my tv is stuck on a start up loop screen. Turns itself on then turns itself off. Holding the reset button did nothing but make the screen go black for a bit but then it resumed the on and off dance. Has anyone been able to get the usb download link. I know this is a firmware issue so I'm trying to get the update onto a usb. I can't get past the roku tv hardware id question, with the tv looping I can't access the settings. 

Emailed Hisense for both support and the firmware update and was told to contact roku. Chatted in with roku and was told to call Hisense. Called Hisense and was told to contact Roku. 

If anyone can provide me with a download link or share the file I'd very much appreciate it.

I understand how to use the updater I just can't access the settings because of the TV shutting itself on and off as soon as it's plugged in. I'm needing the download itself or to either bypass the step one questions so I can proceed to the download. Any idea how to do that @RokuJechealR?

Thanks for the response, @OwlBeGaming.

Please note that we don't have any way to bypass that process. In that case, we recommend contacting your TV manufacturer for further assistance.

In addition, one possible reason your Roku TV constantly reboots on its own is a problem with the power adapter, cord, or power outlet. Ensure that everything is correctly connected to the back of the TV.

If you have any information about your device, please provide us with these details so we can send them to the appropriate Roku team for further investigation as follows:

  • Roku device or TV model, serial number, device ID, and software OS/version (these can all be found in Settings > System > About).
  • Tracker ID when this issue occurs (when you see this issue occur, press the Home button five times, followed by the Back button five times, and provide us with this ID).

Please keep us posted!

All the best,
Chel

I’m having the same issue. I’ve tried to replace all of the circuit boards and none of that helped. Now I’m in the same situation, trying to find a firmware download, but Hisense says my serial number is wrong and I can’t access any software issue due to the automatic on and off loop.

@RokuJechealR I've already contacted Hisense twice and both times I was redirected back to Roku. The issue isn't with the power cord or the wall outlets either. I'm not using any type of extension cord or surge protector. I've plugged the TV into four different outlets and it powers itself on and off at each of them as soon as it's plugged in. I've attempted to hold down the reset button and the issue still persists. Upon inspection the capacitors aren't swollen either.

The information I can provide from the labels on the tv are MODEL: Hisense 65R6E1 S/N: 65G2024Q5H01095 I've attached photos of the tv labels (there are two) and a gif of what the tv is doing.

yeah, the model doesn't populate on the Hisense website for me either, which is why I reached out to them. The second time I spoke to someone from Hisense they told me that the serial number won't show up on their firmware update site because the updates are provided by Roku. The only thing Hisense provides is the standard power and spec information.

@OwlBeGaming I found out that my issue was that only half of my LED strips were working. The T-Con board or the main power board (I can’t remember which one) was senses that they were out so the tv would try to reset itself. Unfortunately, however, I cracked the screen in the process of finding that out, so now it’s garbage lol
