Posting this for anyone who is stuck.
This worked for me:

1. make your way to the recovery screen either from screen options of by pressing the reset pin (side of the tcl tv)
2. unpower tv for 30mins
3. turn on TV. Connect to personal mobile hotspot (Mine was an android phone)
4. complete the software update process and it should work from there

before this I tried the ethernet option and usb option .. all did not work. Roku tv did not upload the correct reboot file for my tv model.

@Hairstonr7, if you have an onn TV as this thread would suggest, they're the ones that would have to replace it.

For the past 5 months my TCL Roku TV has been stuck in recovery mRecovery modeode I have tried all of the resets the updates the USB update I've tried all the hacks online and it keeps continuing to be stuck in recovery mode I left it unplugged for 2 months out of the five straight hoping once I plugged it back in it would work because it is a TCL I was directed to that manufacturer as opposed to Roku is there any suggestions and again I have tried all of the regular steps to get this out of recovery mode and nothing at all is working thank you

it looks like some recent upgrade or feature must have bricked a lot of roku tvs.  (in my case, it came on when I tried to stream audio to the TV.)

the wireless update fails too fast.  it doesn't even seem to try to connect to a server.

the USB update process is also hosed.  the onn. roku TV update asks me for the 6-digit response code that the website gave me, but the website doesn't give me any code.   the website is asking me for a 12-digit code that is shown on my TV in a location that is not on my screen.  (does it mean the device id?  serial number?  either gets me an "Oops! That didn't work" response on the website.).  so, PLEASE, what is the 6-digit response code to continue my attempt to do a USB-based update?

my own information is

CTF.04E12221A

X01200TAKLE4

S13X338AKLE4

G891X

Who would/should I contact now?  Onn?  Roku?  TV is less than a year old, but this is obviously a software bug, rather than a fault.

I would most certainly would be happy to give you that information if I would get out of recovery mode. It's stuck and it won't let me go anywhere but recovery mode soon as I turn the TV on. I have no way to get go the information you're asking me for. Any suggestions please and thanks for responding 😊
