Remote doesn’t open TV when it’s turned off

I got a tv Onn. with RokuTV. First time, i can open the tv with the remote, change channels and navigate in apps. I turn it off and then i can’t open the tv again with the remote. I have to unplug the tv to use my remote again. What’s happening?

Thanks for the post.

Have you already tried changing the batteries in your remote? In addition, are you making sure to point the remote to the IR sensor on the TV?

Please keep us posted what you find out.


Thanks,

Yes, i’ve changed the batteries. The sensor is clear of any objects, remote works well except to open the tv the second time 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thanks for the follow up.

If you are still unable to resolve the issue, we would recommend contacting your TV's manufacturer directly to report this issue and request additional support. Each Roku TV manufacturer provides direct support and warranty services for their products running the Roku OS. 

If you need a replacement remote for a Roku TV, you would need to contact your TV manufacturer. You can contact Onn here: http://onntvsupport.com/#product_support-2 or at 1-844-334-2355.

You can also purchase a remote that is compatible with your Roku TV on our Products page
