My remote for the Roku Streaming Stick is only 3 months old and ALWAYS stops working. Sometimes removing the batteries for a few seconds will reset it. This time it seems as though the remote has completely stopped working, but the pairing light on the back continues to blink. I have tried unplugging everything to reset it, but no luck. I'm assuming it's time for a new remote, unless I'm missing something?

Re: Roku remote constantly stops working, even with fresh batteries
Review my "Unresponsive enhanced remote fix?" post I made today. Review the results, see if yours behaves the same way. I'd be interested in knowing whether that setting works for you, too.

Re: Roku remote constantly stops working, even with fresh batteries
Roku #voice remote is unreliable. I purchased two -- one works as expected, one plays dead more often than not. I replace batteries, remove and clean batteries, reset the sync over and over and over but the problem returns.
That's bad enough, but my disappointment flares because the lousy product is compounded by a lack of warranty protection. Roku is making a faulty product -- abundant consumer complaints are the evidence -- yet, they do not protect their brand or back their customers by offering replacements.
Very bad business model. There are many other streaming options available. Dissatisfied.

Remote not working intermittently, not a pairing issue
My roku remote intermittently stops working. It is not a pairing issue as a reboot (unplugging/plugging power) of the roku resolves the problem without needing to press the pairing button on the remote.
I have done a factory reset and the issue remains.
Roku Ultra, connected via ethernet.

I'm having the same problem! My remote is an older model, with green & blue buttons arranged vertically at the bottom.

Re: Roku remote constantly stops working, even with fresh batteries
I am having the same issue. My remote constantly stops working. I have followed all the steps on your trouble shooting page. I have had to reset this thing five times today and it still continues to not work. This is so frustrating!!!!!

Re: Roku remote constantly stops working, even with fresh batteries
Can I also contact you since I am having the same issue and none of the solutions works, remote still fails at random. Can I get a replacement remote since I've only had the device for 6 months.
