Re: [OS 10.5] Roku TV experiencing loading channel issues

Hi Danny, we’re experiencing the same issues on our Roku with the update that several others are. I’ve done the manual check and it says: software version:10.5.0 Build:4201. Can you please help us with this situation? Thanks, Jerry

I could not post when I first signed up, either. After I responded to this post, I got enough status to be able to post. Keep checking.

Same experience! We have 3 Roku TVs, and now are unable to access YouTubeLive (and potentially others). We have tried all the suggestions, including factory reset. I have been reading about this issue for months. With so many users experiencing the same issue with your update, what will Roku be doing to resolve the problem? Is the expectation we all go out to buy streaming devices to attach to the TV? We purchased our Roku TVs to have the built-in streaming capability.

It is not a memory/space issue, as after the factory reset we have fewer apps on the TV than when it all worked fine 2 days ago. If no solution provided via update, will Roku supply it's Roku TV owners with an external streaming device? Or will you expect us all to go spend more money on such devices since our TVs now will not work without one?

Not as severe as what others were reporting, but I have multiple RokuTVs (TCL 55S405) and all began experiencing brief split second audio drop outs when streaming from Disney+. Rolling back firmware from 10.5 to 10 fixed the audio issues.

I have a TCL Roku TV, model 55S421-CA and same issue...can't watch BritBox, Acorn, Paramount, tennis channel, sometimes Prime... NOT good!  

I just went to do an update and all I'm told is that I am up to date with the OS 10.5.  I thought a rollback was distributed?

I had to manually check for updates. If you're not seeing it, maybe it's still being distributed? One thing of note, after rolling back to v10, none of the channels would even launch. I had to then "check for updates" again, which then "updated" all my channels. Then things started working properly again.IMG_20211124_094405~2.jpg

I tried your suggestion and the Insignia Roku Tv did not update since it already checked for updates. I cannot watch CNBC without the channel shutting down throughout the day, losing the volume, and the audio and video not syncing. This has been going on for 2 weeks. Same thing with my other Roku Tvs thought the house. What is up????

How did you roll back the update?

Hey @AzKeW 

Did you get a fix yet?  Mine still is technically frozen, can't get remote to function to get into settings.  Danny said that he sent it to tech support & they will assist, this was last nite.  He's probably slammed with PM's but he was nice enough to reply to mine.

Yes, I actually kept searching for a software update and finally it showed me the option to roll back to the previous version about one hour ago. All my apps seem to be working fine again! I hope it stays this way.
