Lovell McIlwain Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 This issue has happened twice so far (within days). I’m looking for any suggestions that I haven’t already tried I was streaming on the device when it rebooted out of nowhere. It seems to boot up fine but now does not respond to the remote unless its factory rested. Attaching a USB mouse gets me so far since it doesn’t seem to be able to really click on any of the apps. I can get the most over to the app but it doesn’t open when I double click it. The mouse does get me far enough to attempt to re-pair the remote but that did not help. I’m wondering if there is anything else I can try before factory resting it again for a 3rd time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbs. Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 You doing a soft or hard reset? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovell McIlwain Posted May 23, 2023 Author Share Posted May 23, 2023 I factory reset though the software. I did look for an external reset button but I really didn’t look that hard since I was able to do it though the software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovell McIlwain Posted May 23, 2023 Author Share Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) The light in the front is a solid red if that helps. Never mind that red light was me not having the HDMI plugged in from shuffling things around. Edited May 23, 2023 by Lovell McIlwain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovell McIlwain Posted May 23, 2023 Author Share Posted May 23, 2023 Ok so this is crazy. Having unplugged my hdmi and plugging it back in it appears my remote is working again. I honestly dont understand why that would be a factor at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovell McIlwain Posted May 23, 2023 Author Share Posted May 23, 2023 Thank you for telling me where the hard reset is in the event that I need it. I have plenty of HDMI cables so I will definitely replace it and see if it helps. Really appreciate it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G2P Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Ryu not clear on Lovell's last quote ( is about Hard reset and replacing HDMI... but not sure what exactley done and what's out come) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 so Lovell removed hdmi cable and put it back, and it resolved the issue. Lovell said they have extra hdmi cables so if Lovell thinks thats the issue then Lovell will replace hdmi cable before reset box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
