Re: Green distoted screen on tv. HOW DO I delete roku and reinstall.

You cannot "delete” Roku from a TV. Since you are using a Roku player that is connected to the TV, simply disconnect the Roku and it's gone from the TV. I doubt that will resolve your screen issue though. That sounds more like a TV failure.

To "reinstall" your Roku Stick, simply connect it back to an HDMI port on the TV.

All apps? One app? Even the Roku UI?  Is the TV normal with other sources?

Banned but back. Because why not?

A Roku device pretty much works like any other device like a blu-ray or cable box in that it sends a video signal to your TV, in Roku's case by streaming it through the internet.  Just like any device that attaches to your TV, it does not install or uninstall like a computer tends to do.  Just simply unplug it.

As ATC said, it does sound like a hardware issue with the TV.  Have you tried the Roku on another TV?
