Re: Brand new Roku Remote - right arrow not responding

I have tried everything. There's nothing we can do when it's just the right arrow not responding. All other buttons are working. Unfortunately, this is the second remote of Roku I am having that is having issues. The first one that came with the tv, the buttons were not even responding at all. I use my phone to control the TV but it's not convenient. I am not eager to buy a new remote as this seems like a general issue with Roku remotes.

I'm trying to reply to a private message to any one of the Roku customer service agents but the forum software is kicking out an error saying that I've already somehow passed my limit on private messages. 🤷

Re: Brand new Roku Remote - right arrow not responding

I am having the same problem with a 4 month old remote.  I can get the right arrow to work pushing real hard.  My wife and mother in law cannot.

What can I do?

I managed to get one message to send. After that, I got the red message shown below.

Not only is the right arrow button still broken, but private messaging on this forum is also broken.

Re: Brand new Roku Remote - right arrow not responding

I managed to get one response to send to the roku agent. I wanted to also send a picture to help identify the remote but the forum blocked me from sending a second message.
