Express 4+ Won’t turn on unless automatically

Jump to solution

Originally  my Roku was connected to my TV and would turn on when I turned on my TV. It stopped doing that and would only turn on when I unplugged it and replugged it. I decided to take Roku’s advice and plug it into a wall outlet, but got the same results. Has anyone else had this issue and what did you do to fix it?

thanks

@Sjastremski-

Did your Roku recently receive the update to Roku operating software 10.5 that is currently rolling out?  Settings > System > System update will show you.  (While you're there you can click Check now to receive any pending updates for your unit.)

Roku 10.5 has added a new Power item in the Settings > System menu for some Roku models. If you have this Power item, under Auto power savings see if deactivating After 20 minutes of no interaction fixes the problem.
