-
SynRen (@SynRen) reported@Roku I brought a brand new Roku TV on 07/05/24, now it does not work. It has a black screen. I called Roku and did all the troubleshooting, and they said the hardware is dead. I think they should replace their defective product. Yet it says it should last 5 years minimum.

Geoff Meador (@geoffmeador) reportedOur @Ask_Spectrum outage has lasted all morning and USA vs AUS is coming up, so I just switched our @Roku TV to OTA antenna… except, in the most idiotic decision imaginable, watching antenna TV on Roku apparently requires a working internet connection now. 1/2

The TV Answer Man: Making Television Easy Again. (@TVForSeniors) reported@MatthewKeysLive @Roku Most TVs today are purposely not built to last. The industry decided long ago to stress quantity over quality.

-
chinedu🦀 (@chinedu_10) reported@Roku is there a reason why your devices stopped connecting to WIFI? And is this a regional issue? I could connect to the Hotspot on my iPhone. But I can’t connect WIFI to the device. I’ve tried multiple WIFI from different ISPs.

Skippy QSB (@Skippyqsb) reported. @Roku Why did you mess up the main menu? Now I've got a bunch of stuff, I don't want, that I have to scroll through to get to my apps, and I can't remove or move them. Also the app icons are smaller? Seriously? Fix this, please, and stop messing with our menus. #Roku
-
Devin Goble (@devinbgoble) reportedGee, thanks @Roku. Randomly today we get hit with hdcp errors on a setup that has worked fine for years, and the solution is just to move to a different hdmi port on the TV. You are the reason why people pirate.

Scott (@revscottd) reportedOur @Shentel internet has been out all day. That means no cable tv (because they stream it now), no phone (because our home phone relies on the internet) and @Roku tv’s have to have internet so the app to watch over the air antenna tv can work. 1/2
