3226001079 is the serial number. We bought this a year and a half ago, bcus we wanted the voice functionality. 

we are regretting it now. I think we should have stayed with the older model. 

we love Roku but rare really besito reccomend it now.

Hello

so we’ll be watching tv and when we attempt to change the channel, there is no response from the remote. It’s unpaired. BUT, the volume button still works. 
when I remove the battery cover, there’s a green light on. I remove one battery and immediately put it back in. Then the remote begins to function. It’s paired again. 
We’ve only owned this remote for 18 months  all of our other roku remotes function properly and they are much older  

serial number 22314c836528

thanks
