Re: Remote only controls volume and on/off

I also found that going from wireless to wired connection also causes new remote to stop working.  The workaround was to use the phone as a remote and to go to settings and restart the Roku

Re: Remote only controls volume and on/off

I have the same issue. The power and volume works, but not the other controls. I've tried everything mentioned here but no cigar. I just ordered a free hdmi connector, so we'll see if that works. Any other suggestions will be much appreciated. Thank you.

Re: Remote only controls volume and on/off

A warm welcome here in the Roku Community, @tmunoz40!

Thank you for letting me know about the issues you've been experiencing with the functions of your Roku remote. I'd be happy to help you troubleshoot your remote so you can utilize it again.

It may be possible that this remote isn't fully paired with your Roku device. Please let me know what specific device this remote was paired to. Also, is this the remote that comes with it? If not, what specific remote is this?

Here's our support article dedicated to this case:

Let me know how it goes.

Best regards,
Carly
