Re: Guest Mode is broken, bad firmware update

Following, as I have the same issue. It seems to last longer if the power save features are disabled but after a while, the Roku enables the power save again and the checkout is reverted back to Dec 31st. Very odd behavior.

Re: Guest Mode is broken, bad firmware update

Following as well. Mine are new (August) 4k sticks and have done this since I installed them. Mine are receiving power from the TV’s USB port versus a wall jack. I thought this might be a result of losing power when the tv is shut off but haven’t had a chance to test.

Re: Guest Mode Not Working, help

I’m having the same problem at my Airbnb. I have to manually exit guest mode for all of my TVs every time someone checks out. When the guest attempts to exit guest mode, they get a message that says “oops. There was a problem connecting to the server. Please try again later.” I’ve been having this issue for at least three months. It definitely undermines the main value of having Roku devices in a short term rental. Really looking forward to a fix.

Identical issue. Tech-support is useless.
