A:AnswerFunny you should say that same thing happened to me I just pulled out my phone and downloaded a remote control app on it and am I was in business
A:AnswerYou better see if you're still under 1 yr warranty or geek squad. The same tv suddenly stopped responding to the remote just at the 1yr mark and I called in 4 days late and they told me to kick rocks basically since I didn't get to geek warranty. The tv isn't made to last and they don't care.
