FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Specific answers for Sanyo TV users.

What should I do immediately when my Sanyo remote batteries die?

It connects to your Sanyo Roku TV via HTTP REST (Roku ECP) (port 8060), discovered automatically over SSDP. No PIN or pairing code is required — the connection is instant.

Can I control my Sanyo TV from my iPhone when the remote battery is dead?

Yes — our free wireless remote replacement iOS app gives you complete control of your Sanyo Roku TV over Wi-Fi using HTTP REST (Roku ECP) (port 8060). Your TV is discovered automatically via SSDP. No PIN or pairing code is required — the connection is instant. Navigation, volume, HDMI inputs, media controls, and streaming app launcher all work from your iPhone without a physical remote. This is a permanent solution — many users keep the app even after replacing batteries.

What type of batteries does a Sanyo remote use, and how long do they last?

Most Sanyo Roku OS remotes use 2 × AA (1.5V) alkaline batteries. Premium models like slim remotes may use AAA cells — check your specific model's battery compartment cover.
