Re: cannot turn on my tv!! please help!!

Is this a Roku tv? Ot just tv with roku device connected? If its Roku tv, try underneath tv in the middle, see if there are buttons hidden there?

Hey @aprilc

Thanks for the post.

Please reply here with the serial number of the Roku device associated with the affected remote. It can be located at the back or underneath the player itself. 

With more information, we can assist you further.


All the best,
Kariza

@aprilc, I've never seen a TV without buttons on it somewhere, so keep looking.  They can be on the back or along one of the edges.  Once you get it turned on look for a "fast start" option under Settings->System->Power and enable it.  That may allow the remote app to wake it, but I'm not sure.
