11 year old Haier TV and trying to set up TV controls.

I have a Haier Tv that’s 11 years old. Brand new Roku. Plugged the Roku with HDMI cables works great. I upgraded the remote and I’m able to use voice commands but when I try to set it up for TV control, I start the set up and can hear the music play but it never shuts off. Ran through a couple of codes and gave up after 30. 
Does anyone know if it will work with my older model TV?

  • I would recommend buying a model with a voice remote, instead of buying a model without one then upgrading (far more expensive).

    (e.g. the Express 4K is $30 (no voice remote) but the Express 4K+ is $35 (voice remote)...you are paying $5 more for the voice remote)

    Regardless, Tivoburkee  may have some suggestions for alternate manufacturers' codes that may work with your Haier TV.

      Try Sony or durabrand tv codes.

      Yeah it really is  more expensive the only reason I’m switching remotes is that the original remote that I had got stuck in some sheets and was washed. It’s no longer working so I went ahead and got a replacement remote with voice command. I’ll check out that site you gave me
