Remotes

[Stymied]

I purchased  an RCA Roku tv (RTRU5528-B-CA) 2 years ago. Last year the remote quit, got another remote that worked for about 1 day. We started using the Roku app. That stopped working a few months ago. I tried a reset and now the TV is stuck in setup at the "choose language" screen. Got another remote and it has no effect on the TV. Remote is functioning (checked with my phone camera). Is there some other way to connect with the TV? Is this a TV IR sensor problem? Thanks for any help!

Are you sure you got the right remote?  TV's use a different kind of remote than the standalone players.

Hey @Stymied

Thanks for reaching out here in the Community.

Have you tried contacting RCA support to inquire further? I'd suggest starting there to see what options or suggestions they can provide. Each Roku TV manufacturer provides direct support and warranty services for their products running the Roku OS.

You can reach them here: https://www.rca.com/support-products or call them at 1-800-968-9853.

We appreciate your understanding.

All the best,
Kariza

Yeah I'm stuck just beyond where you got stuck.  These people should be ashamed for selling such JUNK.  I have NO alternative but to return this nightmare to the store where i spent my hard-earned money on it.
