You have no clue how many videos I watched to get my firestick to work. I downloaded the app, but it wouldn't control the volume or turn my tv up for me. I found your video by accident and voila you got my stuff to working! I thank you! I thank you! I thank you!!!!!!!
OH HELL YEAH, My 1st Gen Remote still will not pair up to my Amazon FIre Box, but the App you recommended is working perfect on my Smart Phone, seriously Thank You !!!
Commenting for anyone who has a 2nd Gen Fire Stick + box. After a factory reset, I was greeted with the "pair your remote" screen but wasn't able to pair by tapping the home button. I'm not sure if the double button hold + remove batteries method was what did it, or holding the home button for a full 60 seconds, but finally it paired!
Thank you so much. I tried all the methods I found on RUclips but it wasn't working so I installed the app you recommended and it's working. Thank you 😊
I just ordered another remote so that each of us has one. It will pair with one Fire TV in three kids room but the main TV doesn’t detect it. I’ve unplugged the TV, rebooted the remote, taken out the batteries, slowly moved the remote past every square inch of the back and screen, checked for updates and updated the TV (repeatedly) all to no avail. Any ideas?
Thanks mine is working,before your trick i did everything i could so 😊 pls follow the exact instruction mine took 20 seconds to restart ,like i resetting remote setting i press 20 seconds anf home button same 20 seconds
I have same problem, bought new remote, won't pair, bought ethernet cord, plugged tv to internet, nothing, downloaded fire remote app...phone app not discovering tv....can this tv be plugged to a computer to receive an update?? I actually factory reset my tv, and wiped it clean of all memory of old remotes...still nothing...about to call Amazon with the serial number to see if they can help
Dang this did not work. At least I can use my phone to work my TV but I sure would like to use my remote. I also tried two different fire remotes. The one that came with TV and another one I reset we have for another fire tv.
Phone remote only works if your tv is already on the same wifi network. If u just brought the tv home from another location then u can connect the tv to to same wifi until u can control the tv and access settings. Catch 22
still doesn't work. I even tried the firestick app to use your phone as a remote. I can't get pass the Searching for remote screen. The weird part is the remotes volume, up/down works, mute works , power works just the home button doesn't work. Remotes are repsonding to the TV but the home button isn't working. Tried 2 different Fire TV remotes and the Fire TV app. Nothing
My tv is messed up I just can’t watch all of my channels. The other day I had all of my channels on my tv but now it’s messed up. I hope today I get my Firestick fixed because I just wanna watch all of the regular channels. I’m tired of watching RUclips and all of that. If I get my Firestick fixed today I might be able to watch all of the channels. I’ll let you know when I got my Firestick fixed.
Months of only certain remote features working… then completely non working remote and your tutorial fixed it! Thanks!

Omg your video actually worked when know one else’s has!!!
I have a brand new remote that will not pair to the tv. I have tried all suggestions from youtube and websites. Must be a bad remote.
Thanks for helping us!! Finally I can use my new remote 👏🏻☺️
I got mines to work except the power button, not sure if it supposed to turn on/off my tv
Aside from assigning the remote to be a projectile weapon, any ideas?
It worked for me ! 🥳

I tried all this and mine still wouldn’t pair 😩
What if my tv isn’t connected to the internet yet because I just moved?
I tied resetting my remote, but since my second remote had the batteries in, the reset didn't work.
My TV isn’t connected to the internet yet, I can’t get it passed the set up the remote… which it can’t find.. do you know a hack for this?
I have same problem, bought new remote, won't pair, bought ethernet cord, plugged tv to internet, nothing, downloaded fire remote app...phone app not discovering tv....can this tv be plugged to a computer to receive an update??

same issue.
@degucci31 I trashed fire TV ,and bought a Samsung
Same issue here, Amazon CS wanted me to buy another remote, didn't work
@@albertdouglas4630 I bought the newst Fire TV remote.. No the one that goes with my TV and that worked instantly..
Can anyone confirm that's my Fire stick remote can use for another firetv like Insignia???
This worked. The last step where you click ok on the phone for the remote to work.
This worked for me! Thanks for the guidance!

Dang this did not work. At least I can use my phone to work my TV but I sure would like to use my remote. I also tried two different fire remotes. The one that came with TV and another one I reset we have for another fire tv.
THANK YOUUUU🎉❤

Did you ever find a solution? My tv is doing that right now.
@@JessicaMartinez-fh4bzI've been searching for an answer for months, even Amazon CS is useless
I have the same problem
I'm stuck at exactly 💯 what you stated.
How'd you figure it out?
Did u ever figure this out I’m stuck on this right now. Connected through internet and fire tv app home button not working
Thanks. It worked
Thank you so much
Thanks! Using the phone to access the pairing menu was key!
Thanks!

I didn't find the Amazon fire TV app
My remote is not an Alexa voice or Bluetooth - just infrared
It will still not work I did all of the steps and it will still not work
You saved me from having to buy a new Firestick.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thanks buddy
The problem with the app is who wants to sit there holding a phone while scrolling through the streaming services.
Watch another video and it was SIMPLE! Not all of this disconnect Nonsense!
Only light bling
it did not wort
It was easier to replace a remote in the 90s.
Lmao literally like nothing happens 😂✌️
Literally no proof whatsoever
Tv remote
Thank you bro
