JP1 Remotes

I just got a HiSense Roku TV 58R6E5 (apparently essentially the same as 58R6E3 except mine has Dolby Vision rather than HDR but anyway). I'm using the Roku TV Master File device upgrade for my XSight remote.

Everything works fine except that the Paramount+ code instead launches Prime Video (as also does the Prime Video code).

Also, another minor thing, which may be a TV issue rather than a remote issue - if I'm in an app, e.g., Max and I press a button for another app, the TV always prompts "Exit Max and launch [other app]?" - except when I click Netflix, it doesn't prompt for confirmation, it just launches Netflix. Not sure which behavior I prefer tbh, just curious about the difference.

Thanks!

On both my current [TCL] and previous [Hisense] Roku TVs, Netflix was the exception that way. (I just made it a shifted key on my universal so I would not launch it accidentally.)

For Amazon vs. Paramount+, verify

Paramount+ OBC = 107

If it is correct, make sure that your TV has the latest Roku software version.

I have had weak batteries send the wrong code, too.

There is a new dedicated Hisense/Sharp Roku tv code in newer remotes, it's TV 4740, the Paramount+ efc is 00118.

I do not see Peacock listed on any of my Roku key sets, old or new.
No Tubi, either.

On both of my Rokus, if you pressed an app button that was not yet installed, you were asked if you wanted to install it. If the app was defunct, it went back to the Home/App screen.

The screen locking up is pointing to corrupted software, unless the latest version stinks or is no longer completely compatible with the TCL remote.

Did the Masked Man's recommendation above work for Paramount+?

Those OBCs look like they are the same as NEC1 dev 4. I have a complete set of those.

Here is an upgrade using Roku dev 4.251 and the same OBCs,...

PS: Your Paramount+ OBC (233) is mine (105) + 128, so it is likely a duplicate.

Ok, using the codes from the referenced rmdu's now launches Fubo instead, except for the NEC1 dev 4 from SysTech Larry, which seems to do nothing on my TV.

Truly appreciate everyone's help, even it turns out to be fruitless!

For Paramount+ try efc 00116.

Larry's Roku file has everything that was in mine, plus all of the codes from the old thread that Ed linked to, and more, so that's a pretty complete file.
