Roku tv screen shattered can I take the Roku out and use it on another tv?

Jump to solution

So today my daughter knocked my insignia Roku tv over, it's completely **bleep**ed the whole screen is shattered. My question is is it possible to take the Roku out of this tv and use it on a regular non smart tv?

No, there's no Roku within the TV. It's simply the operating system the TV manufacturer uses within their hardware. Sorry.

There is no data to transfer. Anything tied to your Roku user account will appear on every Roku device you link to your account. A Roku TV would have the local TV channels stored after you scan for them, but that would have to be done on any new TV.
