Roly Remote for Roku

Roku 'no signal' on HDMI? How to fix it

'No signal' means the TV isn't receiving anything on that HDMI input. With a Roku streaming stick or box, it's nearly always a connection or power issue — not a dead device.

Fixes to try, in order

  1. Make sure the TV is set to the exact HDMI input the Roku is plugged into (HDMI 1, 2, 3…).
  2. Reseat the Roku firmly in the HDMI port, or try a different port.
  3. Power the Roku from its included adapter into a wall outlet — a TV USB port often can't supply enough power, which causes signal dropouts.
  4. Power cycle: unplug the Roku for 10 seconds, then plug it back in.
  5. Try a different HDMI cable, and use the included HDMI extender if the stick is cramped behind the TV.

FAQ

Why does my Roku say no signal after it was working?
The most common causes are the TV switching to the wrong input and under-powering from a USB port. Confirm the input and use the wall adapter for power.
