Re: Roku remote power and volume stopped working

Still having issues here with my Samsung TV, even after updating to version 11.  Going through the steps to setup my remote for TV control, it will not stop the music from playing.  

TV is a Samsung UN22F5000AF.  Worked fine until one of the Roku 10.x updates.

There is a long running thread here:

Seems they didn't really fix the issue!

Re: Roku remote power and volume stopped working

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the posts.

For clarification, was the remote controlling the TV power and volume previously working?

@murielle 
Did you already try re-pairing the remote to your TV to see if you are able to resolve the issue?

@Kremlar
Can you please provide us with the following information:
-Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and software OS/version (these can all be found in Settings > System > About)
-what troubleshooting steps have you already taken to try resolve the issue
-when was the last time that your Roku device remote was able to control the device

With more detailed information, we will be able to assist you further.


Thanks,
Danny

Yes, it was working fine then stopped after one of the 10.x updates.  Yes, I did try to re-run the configuration wizard countless times and it did not help.

I ended up purchasing a new remote off Amazon and, for the time being, it is working OK.

TV is a Samsung UN22F5000AF.  Roku model 4670x.

Re: Roku remote power and volume stopped working

I had the exact same issue this morning. After trying everything posted with no success I gave up. Since the power button on the remote won’t shut off the tv I went to the Home Screen to turn it off. Just out of curiosity I turned the Roku back on and the volume and mute functions were restored. Crazy! “Turn the power off and then back on” Who knew?

Re: Roku remote power and volume stopped working

This just happened with my remote. Has worked fine controlling the TV power, volume and mute for about 2 years up until today. The remote still worked to control the roku functions but would not control the TV at all. After changing batteries, I tried everything roku recommends... reset remote with button next to batteries, reset the roku, unplug power cord to streaming stick, unplug stick from dcmi, all multiple times. The remote would pair but still no TV functions. Went through the process of "set up remote for TV control" with the music and all 50 codes more than once and still not working. Finally tried the actual TV remote (which we never use since buying the roku) and it wouldn't control the TV either. Hmm. I unplugged the TV for 5 seconds, plugged it back in and now TV remote and roku remote are working fine. Go figure. Hope this will help someone else.
