Re: Roku remote constantly stops working, even with fresh batteries

Jump to solution

The new Roku remotes are just plain junk. Like everyone else my remote also just stops working on a regular bases. The remote also changes to the preset Vudu channel randomly. I asked support about these problems and was told as far as the preset channels Roku has no control over what gets put on the remote. Its up to the retailer what makes up the remote. I went with Roku to "cut the cable" and now Roku has become push TV pushing the presets on you. At least with cable I got to choose what I paid.

I have had similar issues with my Roku remote as well.  I have a 4K stick about 1-2 months.  The remote works when I reset but I am constantly having to reset for it to work.  Is there something I’m missing here.   Please notify me with how to fix.

These solutions have not worked for me. How did this product make out to the stores? Don't get me wrong. I like the product but I have never had issues with a simple remote control like this. Even in the 80's. It works is I stand right in front o the TV. Then it stops working.

I have the same exact problem. It works when you put new batteries in the remote then when I don't touch the remote for a couple of hours it doesn't work again.

So in other words I'm screwed I have to buy a new remote or something and I'll just go back to fire stick if that's the case Amazon always helps you
