@Anonymous User If it's happening automatically then @4268's suggestion should work, and if not try connecting to a different HDMI port.
For anyone else with a NOW TV stick worth pointing out that pressing the power button on the stick remote will turn the TV on/off, the stick itself doesn't have a on/off button and just powers up automatically when the TV is turned on/when stick is plugged into power adapter.

The power available from Sony and Samsung (The two TVs I have) is only 0.5 amp from the USB.
The Stick needs 1 amp.
Use the mains adapter

Not mine. To wake it up I have to press. Home or my tv on the remote.
If I haven’t used it for a few days I just get an alternate black and interference screen.
If I reset then I have to go through the whole set up process again. I’ve done this about 4 times now.
Unplugging is another option even though the stick is still using power and plugged in to adaptor. SONY do not advice using the USB power option as it can confuse the external device logic.
I’m still trying to get this sorted
I had a similar thing on my Sony set where I would switch to the sticks hdmi port and get a screen of 'static' after waking the stick by pressing the home button.
I resolved this by going into the settings menu and disabling the power saving option that switches the stick off after four hours.
Now when I switch to the sticks hdmi port, I just get the screensaver with the NOW TV logo bouncing around and go from there. The stick hardly uses any power anyway when it's idle, so I'm not bothered about leaving it on all the time.
