[Q] Use Fire TV Remote or Gamepad as emulated mouse for sideloaded apps?

Since many sideloaded apps require a mouse to use in place of a touchscreen, I'm wondering if the included Fire TV controller or the game pad accessory can be used to control a mouse cursor. Even an Xbox 360 controller would be better than using an actual mouse or the suggestions of using VNC. Thanks!

logitech k400

If you want something small and only for basic infrequent use, like the occasional text input or quick mouse usage, then I use this and love it.

K320 works fine.
But I need to change the keyboard layout.

Fire TV Stick w/HBO GO side loaded - Is there a way to actually use the app?

Unlike the Fire TV, the Fire Stick TV doesn't have a USB port, so a keyboard and mouse don't seem to be an option (please correct me if I'm wrong). I side loaded the .apk of the latest version of HBO Go but, being an app developed for touch screens, is it possible to actually use such an app on the Fire TV Stick? I can't seem to figure out a way to operate it with the Fire TV Stick remote. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Download an app called wukong from the app store on your phone enables a mouse cursor on the fire tv stick

2 ways to control it usewukong app as mouse and remote to scroll or even better if u have a bluetooth keyboard/mouse or game pad u can use that after installing the settings.apk file to mary the device. I use the ipazzport mini keyboard and touchpad works great.

Are you referring to an Xbox 360 controller to use with the Fire TV Stick? I would prefer to use that if it works. I love that controller and would feel much better than even the official Amazon one.
