Cannot access dev mode any more

Hello everyone

Sometime last year I accessed Dev mode and sideloaded an app which I never got round to using. That app is not on my Roku streaming stick but that may have been because I have deleted it. I'm trying to re-access Dev mode by using the 2*home, 3 up, right left right left right combination but it doesn't seem to work. Has something changed?

Re: Cannot access dev mode any more

You were probably trying to install an IPTV channel/app, right?  Or something else that violates Roku's TOS?  If so, you've been blacklisted.  If you're not a developer, there's no reason to sideload a channel/app other than to try to skirt Roku's TOS.
