TNT for Roku might display a message that asks for the activation code after you’ve already completed the activation step.TNT for Roku may show as activated on your computer screen but is not reflective on the Roku device.TNT app never makes it past the activation screen.

The activation error with TNT generally appears when you are trying to activate the app for the first time. Because there isn’t a login screen on the app itself you have to activate it through another device such as a laptop or a tablet. Regardless of how you see the error, there are a few steps you can take to try to get TNT (or other channels) working again on your Roku.

Cause of Activation Errors on the TNT App

One cause of the activation issue with the TNT app could be the Wi-FI strength. If the signal is too weak, the app will have trouble connecting. Another possible cause is a forgotten or wrong password, or the cookies stored in your web browser. If you tend to stream on a lot of different apps then your cookie cache could have too much data built up in it. It’s always good to clean the cache out every once in a while if you plan on using a lot of different streaming apps. The third cause could be the app itself, which might have become corrupted and needs a reinstallation and reboot. Because the Roku device only powers down if the USB cable is attached to the TV instead of the wall, there are times when the device will get jammed up like any type of computer. Doing a reset is oftentimes a good route to take if none of the above options have worked out.

How to Fix It When the TNT Roku App Won’t Activate

If the signal strength is fair or poor you might want to either reboot the Roku, reboot your router and modem, or get a Wi-Fi signal booster.
