    Is your Roku remote not working? There are a few simple steps you can take to try and fix your remote. This includes some pairing options and possible replacements. It is always a hassle when remotes stop working but hopefully this guide makes your time a little easier. Will work on Roku Ultra, Roku premiere and Roku sticks.

    Thank you SO MUCH! Just found my Roku remote after almost a year, changed the batteries, and could not activate Roku. So I unplugged my power and replugged and VOILA! Roku alive and well and ready for use. Thanks again! (I know, I know. Unplugging should be the first thing I try on just about ANY electronic device but I didn't, so thanks for the reminder!)

    That little button inside the remote fixed my problem. My ear wired buds stopped working. It looked fine on TV as it showed the volume icon when put together but I could hear nothing. After your video and that little button unknown to me was put to the test that was all it took to fix my problem I had been moping about. A great big thank you. You are my hero. ❤❤❤❤❤

    @gordonwilloughby8793 8 месяцев назад +1

    Batteries too weak is the most common problem I have had when a Roku remote doesn't work unless Roku freezes. In that case the solution you mentioned of resetting by unplugging the power solves the problem. A new remote needs to be paired as you stated but that is usually a one time thing when it is new.

  • @robinbluejay7453
    @robinbluejay7453 Год назад

    I have a Roku remote that charges up so no batteries. So I did everything, like unplug and reset but still not working. Then I remembered an old trick with old remotes years ago where you press every button on the remote. It worked! I fixed it!

  • @pnutwood4956
    @pnutwood4956 10 месяцев назад +1

    This was very helpful. My remote has no batteries. Holding the little button on the back for 5 seconds did the trick🙌

    • @gordonwilloughby8793
      @gordonwilloughby8793 8 месяцев назад

      All remotes use batteries now. Some use rechargeable batteries. The only remote I have ever seen that didn't use batteries was a very early zenith remote that came with a 1970's Zenith TV. It worked by the button striking a tone bar inside the remote to make a tone the tv recognized. This meant the button would have to be pushed once for each channel or volume change so if you wanted to go from channel 5 to channel10 you had to push the channel up button 5 times. volume was the same. Each push would only change the volume a little. Holding the button for changing the volume or channel change worked the same as pushing the button one time. Probably the reason they didn't use that type of remote on very many tv's

  • @TyRizzoPeace
    @TyRizzoPeace 5 месяцев назад +1

    It turns out you can do a “reset” more or less on the basic remote (for the rokustick) by pushing the back button and home button at the same time for about five seconds. There will be a little green light right next to the power button that will start flashing. The green light will quick flash 3/4 times when the remote has reconnected.
    Unfortunately I had to reset my Roku stick, but it didn’t change much. Because I have more than one Roku tv I was still signed into everything, including the app.
    Thanks for the tips!

    @rasowa2958 4 месяца назад +1

    Do not shake out batteries from your remote like this @1:12! Push the battery, with your nails or any tool, on '+' end toward '-' end and lift the '+' end. There is a spring at '-' end that allows that.

  • @RobJMeronek
    @RobJMeronek Год назад +1

    If you look at a single battery you’ll see that there’s one side ( - ) that has a spring and the other side ( + ) doesn’t, push the positive side’s corner down toward the negative side’s spring and the battery should come out fairly easily.

    Holy c*&p! A few weeks ago my rechargeable Roku remote began skipping in guide and other similar functions after over a year of seamless functioning. Tried many resolutions offed from the net and other RUclips videos. I tried the first item you advised to do, unplugging the roku power source while TV was off and that simple fix WORKED 😮‍💨😮‍💨!

    The last update on my old 4630x Oct 18, 2023 Roku seemed to be what killed the remote it was fine before the update. Tried new batteries, tried batteries out and back in, tried unplug all cables to Roku box and wait 5 min then plug in, tried unplug Roku box plus batts out of remote then plug in box and wait then batts in remote, tried pressing remote reset (no light). I hate the remote on my phone it's not as nice as holding a physical remote. I wish I could revert the update on the Roku box it seems likely it somehow killed my remote same day update same day remote dies.

    All 4 of our Rokus are messed up. Nothing worked. Plug into AC for reset, everything tried. Unplugging the internet router is the only thing left for the 4 TVs. Yes, the App shows 3 devices but you would think remotes would work and not fail out. One TV has an internal Roku and that IS working. Going to a phone app to work a streaming service is insane. Buggy system. No faith in the technology.

      Yep that's what happened to me so all my old apps will no longer available and I had to redownload some of them are non-existent now so they're lost
