Backdrop feature causing the Roku TV to power off

This does not work when backdrop has done something to the TV which makes it power off every time you touch a button on the roku remote. So what do I do in that case? Because now the TV is completely useless. I can't do anything or it powers itself off. Why would you put an app on here that takes over complete control like that.
