@RokuNimfa-C 

Glad this method works for some, but it still doesn’t correct the problem for me.  Maybe instead of suggesting a workaround for a firmware issue, you could...fix the firmware issue?  Your customers shouldn't be expected to exploit quirks in your remotes in order to proceed when your team is failing to fix a fault in your product.  This has been an issue for some users since June/July of last year, is it really that difficult for your developers to sort out?

My serial # X0170073YGGY

Volume and Power buttons not working for almost 2 weeks on my Samsung TV did almost everything available on web.

May be its glitch in your update or something please fix ASAP

Re: Roku remote keeps losing tv power & volume controls

After forcing the remote firmware 6 weeks ago things were solved.

Until today.

The volume and mute control problem returned after 8 weeks of stability.

I forced the firmware update again to solve the problem.  It took 8 seconds per percent to update the remote. almost 15 minutes to update. Then the volume controls returned.

Sill running 4190 of the firmware.

Something IS BROKEN with the remote environment where it becomes unresponsive.

Just acknowledge the problem and stop gaslighting the issue.

Re: Roku remote keeps losing tv power & volume controls

Problem: Roku Voice Remote that intermittently loses ability to send infrared Volume, Mute, and Power commands to the TV

This problem recently cropped up with my Voice Remote Pro after over a year of use.
