Re: Roku Remote Won't Pair lights still blink

Hi @Old333

Thank you for the post.

If your Roku remote is not pairing with your Roku Ultra, here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:

  • Check the batteries: Make sure the batteries in the remote are fresh and installed correctly. Try replacing them with new ones.
  • Restart the Roku Ultra: We recommend doing this from the Settings menu by navigating to  Settings > System > System restart > Restart.
  • Reset the remote: Press and hold the pairing button on the back of the remote for at least 5 seconds until the pairing light on the remote begins flashing. Release the button and wait for the remote to complete the pairing process.
  • Check for interference: Move any other electronic devices away from the Roku Ultra, as they may be causing interference with the remote pairing process.

We hope it helps!



Warm regards,
Lianna

I can't even get into the settings menu.  I do all of that, hard reset the device, and the original set up screen appears.  However I can't pair any remote then or use the app to do so.

Hi @Old333

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Please reply here with your Roku account email address with the serial number of the Roku device associated with the affected remote. It can be viewed by navigating to Settings > System > About. In addition, this can be found on the back of the stick itself. We'll be able to further assist you from there.


Warm regards,
Lianna
