Re: Keeps kicking me out of my apps and back to the home screen

Rey, once again you moderators never read the posts in this chain.  That information has been shared dozens of times in this chain.  Just read the posts, and the date of the posts that will give you EVERYTHING you are asking for, and other moderators have asked for time after time after time.  

Re: Keeps kicking me out of my apps and back to the home screen

Having the same issue everyone else is having and no resolution from Roku. I get tossed from just about every ap back to the home screen. YouTube is almost a perfect every 3 minutes. I have tried every suggested method to resolve known to mankind.  Unplugging everything. Updating everything. Factory resetting everything. Thoroughly disgusted with the whole thing.  And before you ask me to go to the effort to list my model, serial number, etc..etc...  why do it? Not once has a customer service person from Roku taken that information and done anything with it.

Same data as above, but new issue ID:  GJ-088-234

Netflix boots me back to home screen after exactly 3 minutes.

Have factory reset ROKU to no avail and tried everything in this thread.

Re: Keeps kicking me out of my apps and back to the home screen

Ah, but you have never tried the permenent solution   
unplug the Roku unit from the TV and take the batteries out of the remote. 
exit the room and find the nearest window. 
open the window and throw the devices as far as you can.

get in the car and go buy a fire stick or any other device other than Roku.

The thread is only 6 pages now? 🤔

Re: Keeps kicking me out of my apps and back to the home screen

Wow, just noticed, so they eliminated over 13 pages of complaints.  ROKU keeps getting worse and worse.  They must not want people that have this problem to realize how big it is.  So sad that a company I respected has to resort to these tactics.  I noticed that ROKU "Carly" is suggesting all the failed actions once again.  "Carly" is a robot as are all the other "moderators".  I still have an old ROKU that works great, but now have started getting Fire Sticks and they work great.  After over a year letting them know about this problem, they still have no clue on how to solve it.  So sad.

While you are doing that Jerry. How about fixing the original complaint before going on to other things

That means they have solved the problem. Just delete the complaints.

After all the problem is the complaints....

Re: Keeps kicking me out of my apps and back to the home screen

I don't understand why they deleted all those pages. So many ppl have posted the requested information and now it’s all gone.

 

I can’t find my post so I'm posting it again.

This issue has been happening to both of my Roku tvs for a while. This just happened again while I was using Netflix but the issue happens with a wide variety of apps I use regularly. This is definitely not a new problem but likely an issue that is rapidly expanding. Unfortunately a full reset and a uninstall/reinstall did not solve my issue. Here is a list of all the requested information.

TCL Model: 32S335

Model: 8122X - Roku TV

Serial number: YK000X203411 (NST220203411)

Software version: 12.5.0 • build 4176-48

GC version: 10.4.45

Timestamp: 2023-12-27T07:17:23Z

Tracker ID: 11-518-837

Second post that was deleted

The issue just happened to my Roku tv downstairs while using the Peacock app

Model: C122X - Roku TV

Serial number: X00000CR563S (SO3AT01R563S)

Software version: 12.5.0 • build 4176-93
