Roku remote corrosion (all Roku’s, multiple years)
I have 5 Roku devices. Some are years old, the newest is about a year old. The remote of the newest device has been slower and slower, so I opened the back to look at the batteries, there is clearly white corrosion on them. This has happened to every Roku remote I have had for the devices they originally came with. I’ve seen posts about similar issues, Roku needs to fix this way too often problem. Anyone have actual solutions besides putting new batteries in- like Roku providing you with solutions or anything by the company??
Roku remote pro (2nd edition) not voice command not working
Recently bought the Roku voice remote pro this is the one that has the little switch on the side where you can turn the voice on or off and is also rechargeable. Problem is the voice feature of this remote has completely stopped working this after working for several weeks after I first bought it. I've read several solutions presented here in the community and have tried all turning off the TV, holding down the buttons to reset the remote pairing remote etc... None of these solutions have worked. The remote itself works as it should manually. No problems there. Voice just will not work after I've done a reset a re-pairing It might work once. Then ask for time or channel and nothing when I hold down the mic button I get a little thing on the bottom of the TV that says press and hold the button while you speak even though I'm doing that.
Roku remote concern
Every 6 months my remote goes bad. Volume goes nuts, or it acts like it needs new batteries, but new batteries don't help. I would prefer to pay a small fee each month and have reliable remotes. As big as Roku has become, you think they would find a way to produce a reliable remote. But plan on it, if you are tied into Roku, you will find yourself without a remote every 6 months. Just read remedy comment. Haven't tried that and will. But every other remote I have, I've had for years. They don't require that level of care. They just work.
Directional Pad button issues
I purcahsed a roku streaming stick in July of 2023, and by September the right directional pad became hard to press and then stopped working altogether, while the rest of remote was fine Bought a new one and about a week after having it the down arrow started to do the same thing. Now you have to push down hard and hold it to get it to work. All the other buttons work fine and we use our living room remote way more and haven't had this problem. I'm not seeing a warranty and don't want to waste money buying another if it's just going to do the same thing, so I use the app on my phone but shouldn't have to if the oroduct would last longer than 2 months at a time.
