Re: How can I set developer mode

Here is the guide from Roku about how to do this. You have to do the remote keypresses fairly quickly.

Re: How can I set developer mode

Have you tried checking for updates on your roku? factory resetting it? trying on a different Roku?

Does your remote have batteries? Is it an IR remote and you're not pointing directly at the Roku so not all the key presses are registering?

If it appears to enable developer mode and then reboots and isn't enabled then your Roku has probably been blacklisted because you tried to sideload something that violates Roku's terms of service.

Re: How can I set developer mode

Have you logged into a Roku account OK?  Is that part fine ? 

Also where exactly is the step failing ? Are you completing all the key clicks and after the reboot then developer mode is still not enabled, is that the problem?
