I want to get the HDMI extender & Rokyu keeps saying the serial number is not correct. The stick & remote was given to me by someone else.
What's the model number of the stick? Is it purple? It may not be supported anymore.
Same problem. Bought ROKU Streaming Stick Plus less than a year ago - now it overheats once in a while. after 1-2 hours.
ROKU troubleshooting says to order FREE HDMI Extender cable to resolve problem. After entering the info on the free cable request page, and pressing "submit" or "send" - nothing happens. Page not working.
Elsewhere when requesting replacement it asked to enter SN - and it says invalid. Checking the printed SN on the streaming stick - what we entered onto the web site is clearly what is printed on the Roku device.
No way to contact actual support agents it seems. Not happy.
Thanks for the post.
When inputting your serial number in the online form, are you making sure to use the number "zero" and not using the letter "O".
Please keep us posted and we will be able to assist you further.
Thanks,

I have the same issue and have tried entering it with the number 0 and the letter "o" Still says not valid. I've never gotten this stick to get beyond entering the password for the wifi before it freezes. I just want to exchange it for one that hopefully works since I've tried every suggestion I could find. I can't PM anyone because I'm a new member I guess and have had no other contact for support.
Thanks for the post.
I have responded to your PM and will continue to assist you from there.
Thanks,

I'm having the same issue with my 3820r. It froze up, won't respond to any remote input, including from the Roku app. I've tried every reset and re-pairing that I could find and nothing changes. An older Roku device works in the same HDMI slot. I just purchased the stick in January from Amazon, so it still shou;d be under warranty. When I tried to submit a claim it said that the SN that I was entering was invalid. I tried both 'O' and '0', both were invalid. The same SN appears on the stick and the original box so it must be correct. What do i do now?
Go to your account at https://my.roku.com and look under "Linked devices". Try the serial number that appears there. Only Roku knows why it doesn't match the one on the device.

Thanks Jim! That was the problem. The SN on their website was definitely not what appears on the stick or packaging. When I tried to submit the return quest again with the website SN it accepted it. Thanks for the help!!
