developer mode does not open

Jump to solution

Good morning, I use RokuTV in Brazil, model AOC 32S5195, I haven't been able to access developer mode for a week, I activate it the first time and when I try to access it via IP on my cell phone or computer it does not open, if I try to access it again the developer mode by the control of the TV it no longer opens, just doing the factory reset.

Sorry, but your device has probably been blacklisted.  I don't know how Roku does it, but they somehow know what you're trying to load and if it's something that violates their Terms of Service you will not be able to use developer mode on that device anymore.  Roku comes down pretty hard on piracy and IPTV apps are probably the biggest pirates, so if that's what you're trying to use you should switch to a different device.

I have to ask, are you a developer or are you trying to use developer mode to load something you found on the Internet?  If the latter, it's possible that your Roku device has been blacklisted.  Do you enable developer mode and it restarts and developer mode is disabled again or is something else going on?

Exactly, I used it to install external programs. Now when I activate developer mode it restarts and I can't open it anymore.
