Remedy for disappearing channels on Roku TV

You are a lifesaver! I am so grateful for this post as I was not able to find anything else on the entire internet about how to fix this issue.

I had already thought to do the software update but I couldn't figure out how to do a system reset (aside from a factory reset) and had only tried powering the TV off and back on with no results.

This was incredibly helpful, so thank you again for posting this!

FWIW I've found running a quick internet connection test also seems to fix the problem which is becoming more and more prevalent. I've also discovered by accident that the problem is nowhere near as common for me if I use a wired connection instead of WiFi.

Re: Remedy for disappearing channels on Roku TV

Hello, I was playing with a new soundbar and I had to do a factory reset and my channel numbers are back. I have a 32 inch Onn/Roku. 

Yep, I just checked again and I have channel numbers (for now)

My channel numbers are gone again. I came back from watching YouTube and there gone.
