Thanks for the post.

Please provide us with the following information so we can investigate the issue further:

-software OS/version (found in Settings > System > About)
-did your remote control the TV before?
-make and model of TV?
-are you connected to an AVR?
Once we have this information we will be able to pass it along to the appropriate team.

Roku device model - 4660x - Roku Ultra
-serial number - YJ00C1753569
-device ID - CK488C753569
-software OS/version - 10.00 build 4198-46
-remote model - RC193
-TV brand and model number - Samsung UN55JU7100

Have tried multiple ways of getting the remote to work, and have found nothing to fully resolve - volume and tv power off still are inop, but have noticed that I can get the tv to power on when using the Home, up arrow, *, ffwd, rwd, and any special channel button (but not the actual power button).

 

System Update 28 June 21 - didn’t fix this issue.  Build 4209 wasn’t a solution on my Ultra.  Has now had issues almost 2 months.

Software Version- 10.0.0 (July 2)

Build- 4209-55

Model- 3800X

Serial Number- YF0089262122

Device ID- CT37A8262122

TV Model- insignia 32" LED TV

 

Worked fine until this past week. I kept thinking there was something wrong with the batteries. I have tried to Repair the remote to the TV over eight times. It is just a regular Roku voice remote. I'm not sure what else I can try to do. It appears the only thing not working is the volume controls.

Beginning Friday (July 23), I am unable to use any controls once a video begins streaming. This is on a TCL 55R6245 with a Logitech Harmony 665 remote (and the factory remote - same issues on both). 

  • I can turn the TV on and navigate the home screen and click to open apps. The remotes work fine doing this.
  • If an app plays video when it first opens (YouTube TV, Netflix), the remotes become a brick. I cannot play/pause/exit...nothing. I also can't turn off the power...nothing works at all.
  • If an app has a selection screen for an account or content (Disney+, Hulu, HBO MAX), I can navigate this screen. Everything works fine until a video begins streaming. Then the remote bricks. 
  • The same happens with our Logitech Harmony 665 and with the factory remote. The Logitech remote has had no issues at all since we purchased the TV in Feb 2020. 
  • I CAN control everything with the phone app. This is the only way I can exit and return to the home screen. Once I am on the home screen, the remote will work again until the next video stream begins.
  • I tried restarting the TV, a factory reset of the TV, and a factory reset and reinstall of the Harmony remote. Nothing works. Only the app will allow me to control anything once a video starts streaming. 

This is extremely frustrating - My wife and I can use our phones, but my kids (7 &8) cannot have access to our phones every time they want to pause or change content.  It's also causing our $70 remote to only control the sound bar once we begin a show/movie because we have to use our phones to control the Roku TV. 

 

-Remote Model: Using a Logitech Harmony 665 that has worked flawlessly since we bought the TV in February 2020. I also tested this with a Roku ultra remote from our other TV and it did the same thing, so it is not the Harmony remote. 
-Software version: 10.0.0 - build 4209-88
-did your remote control the TV before? Yes, it has always worked perfectly until Friday night (July 23)
-TV Make/Model: TCL 55R6245
-Connected via optical cable to a Sony sound bar
