My TCL TV turned on to recovery mode, updated and is now boot looping. I can't even get it to go to recovery mode. It's a 55r617-CA model, but I can't get any of the other required info because it won't even go into recovery mode.

I have tried changing plugs and outlets, resetting everything, unplugging and using the power button to discharge extra current. None of it fixes the boot loop.

This worked for me - First set tv into recovery mode. Unplug power for 30mins. Start the TV. Now complete the recover + software update process by connecting to mobile hotspot on my android phone. Hope this helps anyone out there. I know TCL now partners with google instead of Roku so not sure if that has to do with anything.

Posting this for anyone who is stuck.
This worked for me:

1. make your way to the recovery screen either from screen options of by pressing the reset pin (side of the tcl tv)
2. unpower tv for 30mins
3. turn on TV. Connect to personal mobile hotspot (Mine was an android phone)
4. complete the software update process and it should work from there

before this I tried the ethernet option and usb option .. all did not work. Roku tv did not upload the correct reboot file for my tv model.

@Hairstonr7, if you have an onn TV as this thread would suggest, they're the ones that would have to replace it.

For the past 5 months my TCL Roku TV has been stuck in recovery mRecovery modeode I have tried all of the resets the updates the USB update I've tried all the hacks online and it keeps continuing to be stuck in recovery mode I left it unplugged for 2 months out of the five straight hoping once I plugged it back in it would work because it is a TCL I was directed to that manufacturer as opposed to Roku is there any suggestions and again I have tried all of the regular steps to get this out of recovery mode and nothing at all is working thank you
