Stuck on home screen / No signal

Hello,

Fyi, I am a sat TV engineer 

My stick + decided not to respond to the remote and was stuck on home page. 

1) Replaced batteries. No change

2)tried mobile app. No response.

3)unplugged stick from Samsung  TV. Noticed fairly warm. Cables checked. 

4) re plugged. " No signal check cable, etc. " message on screen. Will not reboot to home screen. Steady White led on stick. 

5) WiFi checked and it is OK. 

Please advise.

@JerryGoodman

It looks like the first thing we need to resolve with your post is getting your device visibly on your TV. Have you tried using another HDMI port on your TV?

For troubleshooting purposes, have you tried connecting the device to another TV to see if you are experiencing the same issue?

Please keep us posted and we will be able to assist you further.


Thanks,
Danny

I have the same issue.  Stick + stuck on Home Screen and very warm to touch. Happens at least once a week. I have to remove for 30sec and reinsert to get it to work.  Please advise.

@IkeOTA, if it's an overheating issue you can try the free HDMI extension cable:
