Re: Flickering Screen then goes black when i press power button

Welcome, @xplrmorgan.

We're glad you're here!

What Roku TV or device are you having trouble with? Also, when did you first notice the issue—was it before or after an update? If it happened after an update, could you let us know what your current software version is? You can find that under Settings > System > About.

Appreciate your help with this!

Re: Flickering Screen then goes black when i press power button

It is a 32 onn roku tv, i cant power it on, everytime i press the power button it flickers on really fast and then turns off, i don’t remember when it last updated, but this happened right after my power had went out, and when it finally came back on my tv was having that issue. It worked just fine before my power started flickering due to the storm, i was watching a show on the tv when the power went out.

Maybe you should Unplug and Plug your Roku back to make sure the connections aren't loose . Or try - Go to settings> display type and change it to 4k instead of Auto Select. I think the Auto part is trying to adjust the picture occasionally.

Let me know if it helped !
