    So I figured out how to get 3rd party apps icons to show back up ….go to settings then my fire tv click about go to bottom click couple times check for updates and that’s it !! 😊

    • @CordCuttersLI
      @CordCuttersLI  11 месяцев назад +1

      Yup, as I said in the video, I expected and hoped Amazon would fix this and they did with an update a couple of days ago. That's great to see.

    Amazon fixed this yesterday with a update . As of 10/10/ 23, my new firestick max 2nd gen now shows all icons from 3rd party apps.

    • @CordCuttersLI
      @CordCuttersLI  11 месяцев назад

      Yes, they did! My update actually came in two days ago. I didn't feel a whole new video was necessary. I'm happy they got it fixed so quickly! 😀

    Amazon fixed the black out icons for the 8.0 in 4k max, problem now I'm having is dolby plus audio, worked for a few days. Then quit. Amazon says they are working on it. Till then just pick best available sound. This is no help to me with my expensive surround sound system

    Not a bad video but I have a very small banner that’s hardly visible up to the top of the screen with much smaller text and a way smaller banner size that works just fine. Not a bad price for 60$ and 5 mins of configuring. It’ll most likely be changed like the last stick….but 60$ is basically for more storage and some processing…I’ll take that instead of waiting.

    I had an Amazon Fire TV STick 4K Max (1st Generation) and Netflix had those little freezes every 5 minutes, so I bought the Amazon Fire TV STick 4K Max (2nd Generation) and hoped this issue was finally fixed. But unfortunately it has the exact same issue. That issue also already was reported years ago with the 1st gen on amazon, but it looks like Amazon simply ignored it and failed to fix it on the 2nd gen. I personally dunno if this is a Netflix bug with the Amazon Fire TV STick 4K Max or if it is an hardware or low level android bug with Amazon Fire TV STick 4K Max or also it's because it is overheating, but if that isn't fixed asap i gonna buy an Apple TV 4k (4th Gen) in Juni and throw those Amazon Sticks away and say good bye to Amazon for good. Because this bug is ruining all movies and it's also abysmal that they didn't fix it within the last 2 years.

    • @CordCuttersLI
      @CordCuttersLI  11 месяцев назад

      Really? Wow, I'm surprised. Could it be that you didn't give it enough time?
      There have been SEVERAL updates already since it came out less than two weeks ago.
      When I first played with mine, I saw a lot of weird behavior, but it settled down after I checked for updates and restarted it every day for a while. Now it seems pretty solid, and that 16GB is sweet!

    Hi Bob. I’m having trouble with storage on the 4K max! I had a USB drive on the 4K which I put on the 4K max, and now the 4k max does not recognize the USB for some reason. I also restarted the Firestick a few times, and it’s still not recognizing it, even though it will format it. So obviously something is wrong or I’m doing something wrong. Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks.

    • @CordCuttersLI
      @CordCuttersLI  11 месяцев назад

      What is it that you want to use the USB drive for? External for files or internal for apps. Have you seen my videos on adding storage?

    I have two issues with the Firestick 4k Max. When in screen saver, it loses the HDMI connection. It comes back by pushing the select button, but I'd prefer it didn't lose it in the first place. Second, and most annoying. I cannot get out of screen saver without using the home button. Pushing any button on the remote will not exit screen saver. I would like to keep the screen saver option, but only want to be able to exit it easily... Any help?

      I have Kodi and Stay Alive on, and both show icons. No problems so far with mine. All the normal UK catch-up apps seem to work fine (as well as they ever do, that is). Never had a Firestick before (had a WDTV Live) but I am happy enough (at the mo!)

    @arnoldlinder8736 9 месяцев назад

    Adding usb storage can be done on the 4k Max running fire os 8 but now apps can't be moved to usb storage. You can format the usb drive to internal storage but it isn't reflected in the total storage space so I don't know if it is added or not. Is there any work around?
