Is this a separate Roku or a TV?  A lot of TVs have a "store mode" or "demo mode" to show the TV off to potential buyers.

For anyone reading this and looking for help with a similar problem:

Roku TVs have a store/demo mode that can be selected during initial set up. If your set has no provision in the user interface to change this later, to get out of store mode you have to do a factory reset (Settings > System > Advanced system settings > Factory reset) and set up again from scratch. When asked, select home use instead of store/demo.

what does it say?

try Setting/Accessibility>> I basically have everything turned off like captions and Audio guide

Are you pressing the microphone button on the remote? just press it again..

I had the same problem -- a list of TCL Features kept appearing every ~2 minutes.  What worked for me (instead of a full Factory Reset) was SETTINGS => SYSTEM => STORE SETTINGS, then uncheck the box that says "Show store marketing messages."
