I have the new remote, “RC-GZ1”. I have what I think is the same issue, the remote will work great and all of a sudden just stops responding and I have to wait about 30 seconds or so and then it will work again for 5 or 6 more button presses then wash, rinse, and repeat. I don’t take the battery cover off, I think the remotes are just experiencing some type of interference or something and the performing some type of quick reboot of some type. I explained my issue on the chat with Lawrence and he said I should replace the remotes and that would fix my issue. I explained to him that I recently replaced the remotes and the new remotes has the same issue. Lawrence said to replace the streaming stick and my issues would be resolved. I asked him how he had confidence in his recommendations, he replied, your product is no longer under warranty and then it said Lawrence left the chat.

Is the Amazon Firestick a good product? I’m done with Roku!
