Roku Simple Remote Not Working Troubleshooting Guide
In this video I go over some troubleshooting steps if your Roku Simple Remote is not working. I talk about making sure the Roku Device is visible to the Roku simple remote. If the Roku Device is hidden, or behind the TV, or has something in front of it, the Roku simple remote will not be able to communicate with it. I talk about making sure the batteries are installed the correct direction and replacing the batteries with new batteries. I have other videos on about Roku, and if you are interested and have time and want to learn more about Roku, please check that playlist out. Thanks for watching!

Agreed! I thought there was going to be a little more substance to this video. This is a troubleshooting video for people with an IQ of 70 or less. Smh!
A 5 minute video just to say make sure the Roku device is not covered by anything so it'll be able to receive the signal from the remote and also take the batteries out and put them back in

Honestly
Those who "liked" this video: You are the reason the shampoo has instructions Five minutes of my life that I won't get back
Wow i never knew how to change a battery 😂
This video done pissed me off more than the remote I’m trying to fix. Bye
There’s five minutes I’ll never get back.
My friends and I get wasted using this video - we invented a drinking game where we take a drink every time he says "battery" or "batteries".

I’m starting to think this was somehow supposed to be comedic, WTF the last thing I thought of when my controller didn’t work was CHANGING THE BATTERIES WITH A PRECISION TOOL

His video was no help, but this comment was a big help! Thank you!
You don't need to buy a special tool to remove the batteries. It can easily be pried out with something as simple as a Butter Knife & follow his instructions.
that was a waste of your time
My right arrow button won’t work. That’s it. Every other button works fine except this button. I don’t know if it’s the remote or the TV. Few mos ago I got a new Roku Device/Remote. That one sucked. I’d have to press the buttons like 20 times to get it to do anything. Then suddenly the power button wouldn’t work. I had to press the button on the Tv to get it on/off. I don’t understand what’s wrong. Is my Tv not letting remote connect. Do I need new batteries for my remote? Why is this issue popping up after 3mos?
The entire video is limited to replacing the batteries and should say so
Provided the batteries are not dead, just taking the batteries out and putting them back in again will make it start working again. It is not perfectly easy to pop the batteries out if you do not have long fingernails.

Bwhahahahaha ! He forgot to tell us to enter the room where the TV is. Here I am in the kitchen walking around bewildered.
How do I pair a ruko fire stick to my Internet
Wow the thubsub is on the down side .. I cannot believe you noticed your plus side on the top. Wow . My g osh.
this particular device is worthless. I've tried everything on two different tv's. it just doesn't pick up any wifi signal at all. The new 4k streaming stick does work and picks up signal. roku needs to take the non working cheepies off the market.
PLEASE READ! I just fixed my remote! What happen is the GREEN LIGHT on my roku remote was stop blinking all the sudden, like it’s dead, no reaction at all. So I searched and tried all the ways on KZread Google Facebook customer care etc. so I started changing batteries , reset, remote, reset TV, unplug and replug the TV and the Roku stick. NOTHING works! the remote just dead dead….I was like “maybe if I drop it on ground and it will work just like how I “fix” things when I was kid.” So I dropped the remote on ground naturally not like smash it! And that still NOT work, so DONT DO THAT! And then I was thinking why all the KZreadr was almost wising the same kind of batteries? (“same kind” cause I’m not sure if they are the same brand but they look the same) the rose gold with black color one, and I was using the silver with black color one ( sorry, I’m not sure the brand). Anyway, I putted some old batteries which is the rose gold with black, look exactly like the one in video, and I press the little button and the green light ON!!!!!!!!! Not sure if this help but thanks for reading! ( if you tried all the ways like me, try this😂 worth to try, at less better than buy a new one and only work for 3days like me…)

What if some arrows working, and some do not ?
What a hack. He didn't even try and rub the batteries. 5mins to replace a battery.....
Anymore brain busters for me?
I've got fever sweats post-Christmas fixing my suddenly dead Roku... but I definitely still have the energy to dump on this waste of breath and time.
Okay but what if the thing is moving on it’s own like it has a mind of its own I have tried a bunch and it’s still not working at all

Dude sais battery so many fucking times like he sounds like he runs on batterys
I have replaced batteries 6 times in 3 days. Wtf.
This video is for someone that doesn’t have any common sense in any sort of way.
It did not help me at all
You must teach kindergarten.😂
Anyone who found this useful might want to listen to Jim Gaffigan's "Home Made Hot Dog Recipe". If you like being talked to like you're a simpleton.
Batteries..🤦
WAIT A SECOND….. it needs batteries?!!!!! 😮😮
I were re se ting my roku tv but its TCL
Thanks Todd's Garage
This is crazy.
I have a Roku 4k Streaming Stick
Thank you. Ya done good.
Wtf did u just do my guy
No one needs instructions on how to take AA batteries out of any device.
OMG dude! SKIP THE BATTERY PART!
The moment he produced a tool he'd purchased to remove batteries I realised what level of stupidity we were dealing with... the rest of the video confirmed this.. this video is just utter garbage. If it was named "how to replace batteries in the roku remote" I'd accept it and a handful of senior citizens suffering from dementia might find it useful but troubleshooting.. no.. if this guy's car stops working I assume he removes his fuel and then puts it back in it.. if that doesn't work he's stumped
You spent over 3 minutes on how to change batteries. Worthless
LOLOLOL is this serious ? 🤣
THIS IS NOT A TROUBLESHOOTING VIDEO. WHAT A WASTE OF TIME
Is this Vlog for Dumb and Dumber? 5 minutes how to take batteries out? Is this a JOKE?
This video needs to be taken down. A waste of time
What a waste of time.
What waste of time.
Useless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What’s ? It’s stupid
Thumbs down 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
Waste of time

what a joke
Blah blah blah blah blah A battery removal tool .. really? Thanx for nothing
Wow that was soo not helpful
