Hi @Anonymous User

Have you tried a factory reset on the stick ?

With the TV switched on and your stick powered up, hold the small reset button on the stick for about 6 seconds until hopefully you see the lets get started message on your TV screen.

Please note with a factory reset you will have to setup your stick from scratch again.

Hi @Anonymous User

Is it only the remote that won't connect to the stick ?

On your TV screen can you see any NowTV menu's or is the screen blank.

Does the white light show on the stick and are you using the supplied power adapter plug that comes with the stick, rather using the power from your TV's usb port.

If it's only the remote that's not working, then see if re pairing the remote (maybe with new fresh batteries by following the linked guide below).

Should the pairing of the remote not work, what happens if you download the free Roku remote controller App onto your smartphone from your phone Apps Store (where i am assuming you own a smartphone).

Hi @Anonymous User

Just had another read of your first post and it sounds you may have bricked the stick whilst it was undertaking a software update when you disconnected the power to the stick.

Try another factory reset by following these instructions.

If still no luck unless somebody else on here has got any other ideas then have a word with live chat to see if they can help you further (see link below for live chat).

If you get no joy with live chat, send the stick back to the retailer that you bought it from and either ask for an exchange or a refund.
