Roku channel won't play on firestick.

 I've read many posts of people having the same problem. I never saw a solution posted by the Roku team that worked. Then I saw that the discussion was marked solved and closed. I found nothing helpful whatsoever.

I log into the Roku Channel on my Firestick, but I dont see MY content. I only see all the "free" stuff. Its like I'm not even logged in, even tho it says my name at the top of the screen.

 

No error codes.

 

Troubleshooting = uninstall/reinstall. Sign in with QR code. Sign in with reg code > activate link. Sign in manually with username and pw.

Does the free stuff work? Then it's probably working as intended, since Roku says premium subs only work in their ecosystem.

Banned but back. Because why not?
