Q: Apple TV 4 boots to and stuck on "Select Your Country or Region"
JJust like the title say. ATV4 boots right to the Select Your country or Region screen. Remote is unresponsive, i.e. I can't scroll around and choose anything or click. If ATV goes on standby, however, the remote will wake it up by clicking Home button. Anyone get passed this?

Recently got off the call with Apple Support. Short of it is you can use an older Apple TV remote to get passed the setup/configuration screens.
Longer story:
- Use older Apple TV remote (not iOS Remote app) to navigate through initial configuration screen
- Once on the tvOS main console, hold down Home and Volume Up buttons simultaneously on the Siri Remote for a few seconds
- The "pairing remote" notification will appear in the top-right, asking to put the remote near the ATV
- Worked from here on out and didn't need to go to the Apple Store
