I just want stuff that works and stays working. I got back from a trip this afternoon and my Roku box won’t work. It say not enough memory to load apps, but they are already on the box and were working fine the past six years.
I’ve noticed that a couple of times from the Ultra, then it seems to straighten itself out. Maybe a wobbly connector? But it only got used once, when I put the card in it. So probably a software update glitch.
Tech is like any other useful complex product, **** wears out. With electronics, they will over a long period of time get enough microscopic wear that they will start to go all poopy and stuff, but generally there isn’t any suspense — they work right out of the box, or they don’t. :^)
That’s odd- mine crashed yesterday-the remote control wouldn’t do anything, and the screen was gibberish. I checked the charge on the battery, it was good. So then I unplugged the the power cord and removed the chip from the back, reinserted it, and it still didn’t work.
I then unplugged it again, let it sit for a minute, plugged it back in, turned the tv off and back on, and TA-DAAA, it’s working again. I have the ROKU Ultra.
I don’t know how these things work, I just push the buttons.
Hope this helps.
