Likely causes
WHY- The stick woke from sleep before Wi‑Fi fully rejoined
- Play Services / store services out of date on Android TV variants
- ISP routing changes that briefly blackhole media ASNs
- Profile switch mid-playback left the app in a bad state
Fix steps
FIX- Power down the device completely, unplug the cord, wait about 60 seconds, then plug back in and retry LG.
- After updating LG, force-close it once, reopen, and test the same screen that showed MAGIC-REMOTE.
- Create a quick test: another profile on LG. If that works, repair the original profile session.
- Move closer to the AP or reduce interference, confirm strong signal, then launch LG.
