Re: TCL TV will not update software even after factory reset
What are the brands/models number of the Roku TVs or devices? What is the exact error you get?

Hey @Moosemittens,
Thanks for posting!
Just double-checking; all of your Roku players and Roku TVs won't software update?
Are you getting any errors when trying to update it? Also, what's the most recent software version on your devices?
Keep us posted.

Re: TCL TV will not update software even after factory reset
Odd thing out of all the TVs there’s only two of them that are doing this and that’s the ONN and the TCL and we factory reset them both and I am not sure what software update they were when we factory reset them I don’t know, but it won’t update now. Truly sorry a lot of things going on. Thank you for anybody that can help

Thanks @Moosemittens,
We've coordinated this with our Roku team for review.
If you get a chance, provide us with the tracker ID and Software and build a version of the Roku TVs. To get this, press the Home button 5 times, followed by the Back button 5 times.
Keep us posted.

Re: TCL TV will not update software even with USB
TCL TV will not update software. I've tried everything even with USB and I got this message : "Can't install older software. Your TV is running more up-to-date software. Installing older software is not allowed. Download a new file and try again" Please what's the latest software ? tvupdate.roku.com doesn't seem to have the right software! I've been trying to activate my new "smart" TV for two days now.
Big mistake to have bought this product :
