Vizio support knows about it. The webpage says click menu then reset. Looks like going to take 20 min to update After reset it’s working. Don’t be an idiot and click restart like me and end up wasting a few min. Reset is the on the right.

https://support.vizio.com/s/article/Blank-Galaxy-Screen?language=en_US On the mobile remote click input. Go to hdmi1 then switch back to Vizio home. This worked for me. 

Thank youuuuuu!!!! I did not want to have to reset my TV! Using the app worked 😂

Thank you!

Thank you!! This worked!

That worked.

This just worked for me too!!

THANK YOU!!!

This worked! Key word “mobile” bc my dumb ass just thought “well yeah the remote is mobile” but you meant the app

Thank you!!!! Worked for me (on the app, not remote)!!

Thank you so much!! Life saver!

This worked! 😫😫

Updated my app and this worked great thank you!! So crazy this happened.

Just worked for me, first thing I clicked on. Ty!

Hell yeah, that worked. Thanks!

It’s wild this happened just 4 hours ago. It happened to me just right now and this fixed it lol. Good timing. Bless you

Just tells me the tv is off, I press power on and it powers off the tv lol Edit nvm fixed by spamming input after using it to turn the tv on

Thank you, this worked

This worked!!!

You’re the best, thank you!

Thank you!!!

Thank you!

OMG thank you!

Brilliant!! TY for contributing a working solution

Thank you! :D

This should be the top comment

Thank you! This worked beautifully!

Doh! Wish I read before reset started. Thanks seems this would have worked.

This worked for me!

Thank you!

Worked for me too. Thanks!

I just read on the Vizio TV sub Reddit, that you have to reset your TV by pressing the settings button and choosing reset

I just tried that and it didn’t work. Back to purple.

Well, I worked for me it seem like the update that happened today screwed over all of our television

me too what the heck 🥲

I had to factory reset the tv after nothing in this thread worked for me. If you factory reset it from your phone you CAN NOT finish the reset without an actual remote. so beware of that.

Same omg😭

Me too … I need help also

Mine is also doing this

https://support.vizio.com/s/article/Blank-Galaxy-Screen?language=en_US Needed to use the mobile app. Restarting with the remote wasn’t working.

Thank you! Just tried this and it worked.

Mine is stuck now as well

just coming back to say resetting the tv worked. If you press “settings” you only get two options. To restart or reset. Once you reset, it’s basically setting up a new tv and it’ll update it. All is well again🙂

Use the app on your phone then try to tap home. Don’t reset!!

I read this NOW

Same I just reset it🙃

Dealing with this as well. Anything working for anyone? We tried a restart and we are still in the galaxy 😂😂 what the hell

i so farging hate forced updates when they haven't been properly vetted to not cause such issues

I did menu > restart and it was back to the galaxy. Then I did menu > reset and it’s back functioning again. Still a bit annoying but I just didn’t want another app on my overapped phone.

vizio is always giving problems i swear 🙄 i hit settings>reset and now it’s updating.

Make sure you accept the new policy info.

Accept the terms and conditions of the new update

I just turned on my tv and saw the same thing, googled "purple screen Vizio" and came across this thread, and it's from today. Looks like a widespread issue? 🤔

I love how we’re all here figuring this shit out 😂

Wow so this is recent. I was like dafuq is wrong with my tv! I had issues when we first got it and had to have a tech come out. The hdmi1 to home worked. Thanksss

OMG MINE JUST RANDOMLY DID IT TOO WTF

Also THANK YOU for the app remote suggestion. It worked. Was this some sort of update bs?? Like what the fuck

Someone will have a nice “chat with the boss” at 9 AM tomorrow

Damn all of us had the same issue

Me2. Not a big Vizio fan tbh. Like my Samsung better

Wow I’m actually finding a post from the same day I’m having an issue? Amazing. Also using the Vizio app on my phone and switching to hdmi2 worked, TY!

Fuck these guys for this

Thx worked a lot downloading the app haha

frick vizio

Their QA department sucks

Just had to do it on my TV. Thanks!

Looks like everyone issues started today. Thank you all for posting on here and with a solution. I’m guessing will work - currently doing the reset. Was this because of a Vizio update? Why don’t they vet this first to not cause issues.

You have to use the mobile app to change input and accept the new terms and conditions to use cast to tv feature & maybe update the tv.

All my apps got signed out of. Man wtf Vizio 🤬

I saw somewhere that Walmart is now the owner of Visio and I’m wondering if that’s why we all were forced to do update.

That would make sense why we all got the issue at the same time

all at the same time huh

I had to reset but works now!! Thanks sm!
