I have the same issue. Can't pair my remote. Been through every troubleshooting tip multiple times with 3 different sets of new batteries (out of the box). I have been trying to Connect my Roku remote to my TV and it won't!

Light continuously blinking, but stuck on "Pair Your Remote" screen. Can someone help?

It used to work effortlessly, until it just stopped and I changed the batteries thinking they were worn out. From that point forward, I followed every troubleshooting tip and other tips on You Tube.

Hi @BVI_Heeling

Welcome to the Roku Community. 

We apologize it wasn't a smooth experience for you setting up your Roku remote. Can you please provide the serial number of your Roku device paired to your Roku remote from Settings > System > About? I'll be able to pass it along to our Support team who can assist you further.

We'll keep an eye on your response.

Nimfa

I'm much more "Common Sense" and "Logic", than I am Tech. So I am repeating the meat of the the Community Moderator's response:

     "Can you please provide the serial number of your Roku device paired to your Roku remote from Settings > System > About? I'll be able to pass it along to our Support team who can assist you further."

HOW do I get to "Settings > System > About?" without using the remote, that won't "Pair"?

There doesn't seem to be any logic behind those instructions!? Somebody HELP please!

@BVI_Heeling, yeah you have to wonder about those canned responses.

You can find the serial number or device ID written on the device itself.  They seem to be under instructions to always request that before going any further.
