Amazon. Get a new roku remote?
Is there an “ enter” button that allows the volume or channel controls to move the selection up or down?
download roku app, and use app to be the remote, some players allow that.
If you can’t find a new remote for that TV then go buy a new TV. You can also buy a plain TV and then buy the ROKU separately. You can even buy Roku remotes at Walmart.
You could also lookup your particular TV on line with the added comment that the remote does not work and see if you find any suggestions.
click Remotes and there is an option to add a new remote.
Open the cover on the battery box and there should be a small button. Press that for about ten seconds and the led on the front of the remote should start blinking. That indicates that it is sending a signal to the Roku TV. The menu item should change to remote found and it should tell you when the remote is paired to the TV.
Have a cheap Roku TV at our cabin...lost the remote, but a Roku remote from Amazon works great and was less than $10. There are also Roku remote apps for your phone. Some better than others. Might be better to get a purchased app and avoid those nagging ads
I'm surprised nobody from TCL told my son to do that. I just found a link to the instructions by doing a simple search on Bing. Don't know if it will help you, but here's the link:
What if I Can't Access the Factory Reset Option (on my TCL Roku TV)
Sorry for the hassle. Roku tv’s are great. TV plugged in: check. New batteries: check. TV turned on: check. Can you get to Settings? If so, then you can pair a new $10 Roku from Amazon.
But seriously, you couldn't think this through on your own?
Turn the unit on
speak clearly in to the speaker
say
TOP SECRET
TRUMP
PLAN
They will fix it from their end ...
I discovered a button on the inside of the battery case that needs to be pushed to reser the remote.
No, you pretty much have to have a functioning remote control.
I have a Roku TV. Easy to use but you need a remote. You should be able to order a replacement remote.
All Walmarts carry Roku replacement remotes for $10.
If the batteries leaked, one would THINK that you would clean an acid with a base, but alkaline batteries are actually leaking a base.
I roughest a q tip soaked in lemon juice. Apply liberally over the battery contacts and anywhere the white powder was found. For what it’s worth, Kirkland batteries (Costco) are frequentl leakers and have done more damage than the cost savings. If you and kids and blow through them, they are a good value. If you have assorted things (electrical sights on weapons, satellite clocks, assorted lasers, etc) buy the name brands. It’s your $$$. Just my advice
If you need to rub, I suggest the rubber eraser on a pencil. Blot dry with a paper towel
Good luck.
Amazon will have their annual Amazon Days July 11-12 and a new Roku, Firestick, should be had for cheap. Good luck
I have a several year old ROKU TV. Will never buy another. After a few years it kept disconnecting from the WiFi and I had to keep resetting it every time I watched it. I tried every damn thing suggested to fix that problem. Nothing worked.
The picture and sound was still really good so I decided for the hell of it to buy an Amazon Firestick and hooked it to the TV.
Worked like a charm.
Get an inexpensive backup HD antenna. It will get all local stations for free. These days there are dozens.
I have an older Roku box and bought their rechargeable remote a while back.
Late last week the remote seemed to quit. Some buttons would not respond. I recharged. It didn’t help much. I loaded an old battery remote and tried it. Same problem — some buttons worked, others didn’t.
Finally, I rebooted the box and things improved.
Your problem may not be your remote, but may be in the Roku system. Can you reboot the system?
download the Roku app on your phone it has a remote function built in. Just make sure they are both on the same network.
