Re: Remote pinging won’t stop

Hi Danny, 

We are currently experiencing the same issue.  We "pinged" the remote to find it and now, no matter what we do, the remote will continually ping.  We have removed the batteries but, even as we use the online remote, the notification will come up in the corner of the screen stating that it is currently pinggang . What other information will you need to assist with this?

Re: Remote pinging won’t stop

@MrTeach, did you use the button on the device to initiate the pinging?  Is it stuck?  Have you restarted your Roku?  Unplug the power cord for several seconds and plug it back in.

Re: Remote pinging won’t stop

I used the app to ping it originally. I have unplugged everything and left them without power for a long time.  Nothing seems to be working.

@MrTeach

Thanks for the post.

If you are still unable to resolve the issue, can you please provide the serial number of your Roku device from Settings>System>About? I'll be able to assist you further from there.

 

Thanks,
Danny

Re: Remote pinging won’t stop

Try fiddling with the side button on base.   Or do what I did by lifting unit a few inches and dropping.   A good rap fixed my annoying pings.   I suspect a bad switch or cold solder joint is the real issue.   My constant ping stopped after that.

Re: Remote pinging won’t stop

I temporarily cleared the ringing by pressing the OK button, then pinged I again when it wasn't ringing so it would reset the loop. That seemed to work 🙂
