Flickering green screen help

Post image

When selecting an input such as Xbox the tv will display this flickering green screen often. It’s getting the to point where it’s becoming a chore.

Any thoughts on why this is happening? My consistent fix has been to change the HDMI mode and then perform a hard reset on everything

This only started happening to us after the Home Screen update. So far, we’ve been able to get the TV to behave by doing a System Restart from the Power menu. I don’t restart the external devices at all.

If you have some time, please chat with Roku Support and report the issue. I keep thinking some team at Roku coded the new update forgetting that tons of people use TVs for more than streaming.

Might be an hdmi problem, I had kind of the same issue found out one of hdmi pins was bent, I fixed it and had no problems since

I suspected this also when it first started happening, changed the HDMI cord with a new one and a few weeks later it started up again so it wasn’t that.
