I had the loop boot issue years ago when i plugged the USB into my projector to watch movies outside. After figuring out it was low amperage out of the projectors USB, I found there is a power booster unit you can get that plugged into the projectors USB to the firestick. It has been working great ever since.
I did have this issue I did think it was because it was getting hot! So I plugged in a hdmi cable long enough to take it well away from back of TV use one of those hdmi connectors plug the firestick into that also using amazon's ethernet connector to avoid WiFi issues. With the firestick now being in the open air so to speak never got boot looped again (so far, been 2 years).
Thanks for the info mate, don't know why so many niggling things are going wrong with the firestick as of late. Maybe time to look elsewhere ... excellent video, have a wonderful weekend !
Along with the power plug, I found using a cheap USB cable also prevented the power needed to boot up the fire stick caused issues as well. So a decent USB cable should be checked as well, especially if you use the USB port on the TV to power your fire stick
Good afternoon hope your have a great day your and your family Thank your for Share your Video with us your are amazing person Thank your so much for do this Video for us too see it God bless your
"Knock on wood" my 1yr old Fire Cube 3rd gen has only frozen once and just unplugged it. I do however manually check for updates daily and also do a "restart" every 4-6days regardless of issues or not. For my use case the Fire Cube will NOT run off a USB port on the TV and requires the power-brick that ships with the device. I've previously been through a TON of the cheap Firesticks and they all would shit-out just after the warranty period and Amazon did NOTHING for me each time! I then switched to Google TV via. a Dyna-Link setup but then a year ago I cut out my cable and RUclips TV would NOT work on it so, I then bought the Fire Cube 3rd gen with total voice control. Just my opinion, but the latest Fire Cube has been the cat's meow for me and is by FAR better than ANY Google product but, can't recommend it for everyone as it's "pricey" but worth it for me with all it's features that works FLAWLESS with older TV and hardware that I have yet controls them all and the "voice" control works great with RUclips TV.
Hi Adam, just a small question ... I have a VPN as most recommend. But, it seems impossible to protect my usage with the VPN and watch Prime and/or Netflix at the same time. Is there a solution to this problem? Thanks
I had the issue with the extender I was trying to create more storage space and I hooked one up it worked for a a month then made the stick go I to a loop I had to remove it to get the stick to work right
I had this issue with mine and it was plugged into the wall and i switched to plug into the TV and it worked. Which doesn't make sense but worked fir me
I've got three firesticks all powered by TVs surely by turning the TV off at night the firestick will reboot on startup thus eliminating any chance of freezing just make sure on updates you don't turn off in mid update had my three about 2016 and the other two 2017 I've found UK power is plenty sufficient to power a firestick from a TV and ive up to yet had zero problems
by the way, I keep hearing the mention about the second generation five sick well I bought one less now the third generation fire stick thanks a lot, Jerry Amato
A couple of series that have been running for years I now find do not load & it just spins as though it's about to load but no picture or transmission happens. In my case I cannot view Deadliest Catch season 20. All other seasons work except the majority of season 20. Any ideas...?
Oioi mate, how have ya been? Summer was awefull for me because of the heat. Question: totally off topic but I just was to sick to leave a comment when you did a vid about this. The not anymore working mouse toggle. There is no link for an alternative below the vid but also, is there no software solution? I've got the one with the keyboard on the back and just can't get it to work again. Any ideas? I find it ridiculous to keep buying new hardware, I simply don't have the funds. Anyway great job and keep going. Greetings from Netherland
What you're saying sounds like the problem I was having. I bought a non dongle blue tooth mouse. Paired it up straight to stick under Controllers and Bluetooth devices, then other Bluetooth devices, add bluetooth devices. Mine works awesome. Was a Technet mouse on sale for 12.49 plus check off 25% coupon will apply on checkout, I got it for 9.37. It works for me. Now that's here in USA. Not sure if or what is avaliable in Netherlands. Might be something that'll work for you. Ray
Don’t know don’t care about firestick anymore, bought and ONN 4K from Walmart and I’m telling you right now I ain’t lookin back now for sure, this thing beats the tar out of firestick! I’m just stickin round for the bad dad jokes now 😂😂😂😂
I per order the new Google box that's out the 24 but I have a first gen fire stick I have apps but all the place I went to are gone wheres a website I can go to ? I was thinking also if getting the new cube 3 gen do to both have there own free movies and there serchers engine a bit different i would need apps asap anyone can help you boy out with hints
Can anyone help me with silk browser? There's a certain website that works on one firestick but not the other - on silk browser it says video could not load. (firestick in question is 3rd gen I think, all black remote not with blue alexa button or app buttons) Thank you!
Sorry for off topic but could you please explain how to stop ads on Beetv. I have three firesticks and one has no ads. I must have installed a different version on that one..thanks in advance
I was able to resolve my firestick startup issue in the easiest way that I could..... Yep, I purchased a new one 😢. This method works just about everytime, albeit not a very cost effective one.
My firestick something does not come on and I have to unplug it to get it working. My recent issues is that it works, but when I click on something to watch, it plays for a few seconds then the screen is black but the audio is ok. Amazon recommended the factory reset that I have done twice but still getting the issue.
Hi mate, my fire stick will play sports channels without freezing but when I try watching movies they won’t load, it just keeps saying reconnect in 1 and so on, can you help.
Gosh I have my 3 Cubes have been running strong. I should probably not put a curse on them. I keep after them to make sure all apps are clean and updated.
I have a 2nd generation firetv box. It is stuck on Amazon fading in and out with the power light fading in and out. I think it doesn't get enough power but the power cord doesn't have the end that can be changed to a power block. It only has a pointed end that can't be changed to a power block
My father put his Firestick in a drawer and forgot about it. When we found it, it kept sticking on the fire logo as in your video. The problem is the remote has lost its connection to the Firestick so can't press the buttons to restart Can you help?
My summery of a firestick is as follows. Upload this, download that, power on, power off, change settings, oh!, change setting again cos Amazon did this and that, sideload this, sideload that, uninstall this so you can tweek and install that, but don't forget to change settings for all the other settings or you won't be able to tamper with that app that needs fiddling with so you can watch videos on how to mess with a firestick. Bin them and use absolutely anything else or you will spend more time messing with the damn thing than actually watching something. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Hey Adam!
My fire stick pissed me off!
Now It's permanently stuck.....in a drawer!😂🤣

Looks like an alternative to the Nvidia shield. Or am I wrong?
