Tvapp-00100 Error on Roku Express

I'm getting Tvapp-00100 Error on Roku Express. I'm able to use the streaming app on my other TV with Roku Streaming stick. Please advise.

I've been using the Xfinity steaming app on my computer and TCL Roku TV for years with hardly a hiccup.  Returning Wednesday after 2 weeks away, the Xfinity app on the TV requested that I sign in.  No problem; and after entering the activation code, it came back with "Success" and thanked me for being an Xfinity customer.  However, it also said there was problem signing in and to try again later.  I've repeated this probably a dozen times and always get error code:  TVAPP-00100.  Removing and reinstalling the app, along with power cycling the TV, have no effect. 

 

What's really strange is that the app still runs fine on my computers AND a standalone Roku box – just not on the TCL since returning!  If not for the many similar comments, I'd probably perform a factory reset of the TV.  However, I really hate losing all my settings and sign-ons, especially not knowing if that will solve the problem.

Try this:

*Log into myaccount and steaming ap on your phone

*Delete xfinity app from your RCL Roku

* Turn TCL Roku on/off

* Reinstall app

* Enter activation code using browser on your phone

Same.  TCL roku tv just started doing this yesterday.  Tried the uninstall/reinstall thing multiple times.  Tried all the other tricks listed in other forums too.  Clearly an app issue.  All other streaming apps/channels on the TV work fine. 

And yes, I did the "enter code" thing from my phone and it authorized fine then popped up the "TVAPP-0100" error. 

I know Xfinity is putting this on Roku but Roku is saying that the app is wholly maintained by Xfinity/Comcast and they don't have any say in the maintenance of the app or the authentication.

Same TVAPP-0100 problem on an Insignia Roku TV. Tried removing the app, restarting the TV and reinstalling the app. The authorization website says it’s good, but then I get the error. App works fine on an iPhone. It used to work fine on the TV. Please, xfinity, fix your stuff.

Sharp Roku here.  Same thing as others.  Called twice now - first time said it would take an hour, texted it was fixed but wasn’t.  Called  back and now saying it’s in tier 3 support and will be another 2 hours.  Frustrating!

Not sure what happened but tried again and it worked this time.  They must have done at one thing at xfinity.

Just started having this issue with my Sharp Roku TV last night. Tried uninstalling/restarting/reinstalling with no success. Restarting my modem did not fix it either.

App still works fine on my Roku Express, just doesn’t work on my Roku TV.

Please help!

I am having the same issue - Roku on Insignia TV.  Error code TVAPP-00100   I texted with a rep and they said one hour.  Did not work.  I have rebooted, reset, uninstalled, installed...no luck.  I waited on the phone with Xfinity support for 1 hour and ten minutes and gave up.  No in-person contact.   So what I am reading is, a new update created this issue?

@user_524123 Same on my end. This problem started yesterday morning. I have tried the full suite of rebooting / resetting (Modem Reboot, App Remove/Reinstall, TV Reset, Factory Reset) to no avail. This issue seems to only affect the TV as I can hop on my laptop and use the stream app just fine.

Hey there, @user_be61b6. I hope all is well. Tons of our customers seem to be back online with the Stream App on the Roku. Just wanted to follow up with you and see if you are still having issues? 

I no longer work for Comcast.

Not working for me on my 3 year old Roku tv. Same issue as everyone else here. Xfinity clearly doesn’t care about the Roku product, otherwise it wouldn’t still be in Beta all these years.

Hi, @jwserichards. We are experinceing issues with the app in a few areas and working on fixes. Do you get the TVAPP 00-100 error? I refreshed your Roku TV's. Can you check and see if it works?

So we have a Roku tv where the streaming app went out 3 days ago. We tried every recommended procedure but decided not to remove & reinstall based on other commentary here. The Comcast technician we spoke to had to escalate to the Advanced Repair department. They called us back later that day but weren’t able to fix on their end. A Comcast technician came out today & seemed just as baffled. He then placed a call to his support team, they deleted the billing codes from our account, wiped it clean, re-entered them & it was successful!

Glad it's now working for you, though I can't imagine how billing codes enter into it.  In any case, trying to get a hold of an intelligent life force at Comcast is …  well, I'm just not up to hearing another "reset your modem" and hoping against hope that the customer service rep in the Philippines, India, or wherever will send someone out and duplicate your experience.

I hear ya but if you tell them you’ve tried every recommended solution & that you’d like to talk to the advanced tier support staff to ask them to try this, maybe, just maybe you may get one who will listen. The tech who came this morning told me it was a good idea to post this ‘fix’ on the community board so that other support staff could try it.

Same issue here on my TCL - so frustrating. Tried restarting, removing/reinstalling app, etc but no luck. Xfinity - when will this be resolved?

Same problem here on my RCA Roku TV with 7509X Roku. I've tried some of the fixes shown earlier with no success. I talked with Brian in Xfinity Advanced Tech Support on 9/17. He says an upcoming Roku update will resolve this but no joy so far. I've spent a lot of time on this but I haven't seen any progress.

@user_0ce455 I finally have it fixed. Removed app. Unplugged for a few hours. Reinstalled app and got it to authorize with success. Yeah! It seems like more users are getting through it lately. I hope the fix is in.

FINALLY!  I removed the app, unplugged the TCL, waited a couple hours, reinstalled the app, and it works!!!  I've done the same thing over a dozen times since returning home last week, but this time it finally worked.  I can't believe having the set unplugged for a longer time had anything to do with it or maybe the app's been updated.  In any case, I'll be glad to only have to fool with a single remote and will return the standalone Roku to the other bedroom … after a while.  :-)

@Turtleman777 this just worked for me as well on my Sharp TV. Uninstall the Xfinity app, unplug the TV, hit the power button on the remote to drain all the capacitors in the TV, plugged it back in, reinstalled the app, and success!

Glad you guys got it working as well!  I had tried the uninstall-unplug for 15 minutes-reinstall thing the first day this happened but that didn't work then.  I think they got the backend problem fixed up in the last couple days and this is what it took to forget whatever cookie or auth code they store so that it would refresh entirely.  Of course, we'll never know the true story because they'll never admit to the problem and put themselves on the hook for folks asking for money back.

All of the sudden it works!  I posted yesterday.  Insignia Roku 55” TV.  I tried everything people have posted and did not have any luck.  Perhaps “someone” figured it out and fixed it…on whoever's end! Thank goodness it worked on my MAC and iPad…it is football season after all! 😁

It is working for me as well, I don’t know what they did but a delete and reinstall of the app worked this time.

Hope everyone else gets up and running.

Happy to report mine is fixed too.  55" Insignia Roku TV.  I didn't do anything different (didn't delete the app, didn't restart the tv, etc.), I just went through the same exact authorization process that had failed 100 times prior and all of a sudden it worked just fine.  Good luck to everyone else out there!

My TCL ROKU TV still has this error.

Did the factory reset to the TV based on phone call troubleshooting, what a waste of time.
