Re: Roku won't update not showing home screen

I’ve factory reset mine 10 times now and still says “update now” and when it does still gets nothing but the wallpaper on the Home Screen

Re: Roku won't update not showing home screen

Roku shut down the server that updates devices. Any device that is factory reset after July 1 2024 must be discarded and replaced. This was Roku's idea to make consumers replace all their devices that are more than six months old. The device does indeed connect to the internet, but it is bricked, and has no way to update. Thanks for everything Roku. I'm done with them. They bricked two of my tvs, and three Roku express devices, all less than a year old.

It certainly seems that way. If you factory reset your device and now cannot reach the update server with 003 error, you are screwed. Your device is junk. I would hate to think they did this on purpose. I have seen many, many people having the same issue and Roku is doing nothing about it.
