Re: Remote doesn't work, frozen on Home Screen

We appreciate you reaching us here in the Roku Community, @EGCPANDA1990!

Thanks for letting us know. We will find the best solution to get your Roku remote working again.

Before proceeding, could you tell us what specific remote you are having this issue with? Our support article can help you Identify your remote. Also, is this the remote that comes with your Roku player?

Furthermore, if there are still blinking lights when you press any buttons on your remote, we can reset it by pressing and holding the Back and Home buttons simultaneously for about 20 seconds. After doing so, pair it again to see if this will make any difference. 

Keep us posted on how it goes so we can continue assisting you from there.

Best regards,
Carly

I apprecaite you taking the time to reply and I apologize for my delayed response but I have decided to give up on the roku device it was given to me and I will be buying a nice entertainment system where the rokue will not be needed so I am thankful but I will not be needing your support anymore
