Roku Voice Remote Pro 2nd Gen Won't stay connected to TV

Roku Voice Remote Pro 2nd Gen Won't stay connected to TV

Using and suddenly TV stop responding to remote.

Then a popup in upper in top right corner says "Remote connected"

Everything works until the next time.

Have restarted TV many times.

Have re-linked remote several times.

It's like the remote is going to sleep to save power then wakes up.

But it's while being used.

Thanks!

WHY!?
Is this marked as solved.
I didn't and this is my post.
I've already tried most of this so called solution.
I'm willing to try the rest.
But NO ONE should believe that I accepted this as a solution

@wcastle 

 

You paid $3.82 from third party seller on amazon for just released $30 remote? Sounds like you bought a faulty remote from third party, not amazon nor Roku. You get what you pay for.  

If the original buyer of the remote purchased it from Roku and it was faulty, they would gotten a replacement and not have to return it bad remote. Instead of chucking the bad remote they sold it on amazon to you. 😞

Not that’s any of your business but that total was after an account credit.
It was sold new by Amazon for $29.99.

I don’t mind asking questions but your jumping to conclusions was just stupid and insulting.

Re: Roku Voice Remote Pro 2nd Gen Won't stay connected to TV

Thank you for the additional information, @wcastle.

Let's try to re-pair it to your TV effectively by pressing and holding the Back and Home buttons simultaneously for about 5 seconds or until you see the status light begin to flash. You may also try the following steps below:

  1. Press Home on your working remote or from the Roku mobile app
  2. Scroll and select Settings
  3. Select Remotes & devices
  4. Select Add devices
  5. Select Remote
  6. Select Continue
  7. Follow the on-screen instructions to pair your voice remote

Here's the support article for reference: How to set up and pair your Roku voice remote

Furthermore, kindly provide us with a photo of your remote front and back for verification purposes.

We'll be looking forward to your update.

No problem I already have tested on more than 1 TV.

Re-pairing takes but seconds.

Testing can take a few days because it doesn’t happen on demand
