Re: ABC app won't stay open already reinstalled

Hi John, 

my Roku express keeps shutting down and going back Home Screen whenever I’m watching any apps, Hulu - Disney - Netflix - doesn’t matter. I’ve looked for Roku updates, app updates, deleted apps, factory reset Roku, nothing has helped? Do they just go bad after awhile? I feel like it’s less than 2 years old…

Re: ABC app won't stay open already reinstalled

Here's some more info for you. I forgot I had a third Roku in the house, down in my workshop. It's the first I ever got (see photo).

I was down there tonight and tried getting ABC and it does get ABC! I checked the version and it's 5.21 Build 0.

I went and checked the 2 Rokus I have been having an issue with and now they work. Last time I checked (see photos in previous post) they were at version 5.20, now they are also at 5.21.

Seems ABC did a software update that has finally fixed the problem.
