Hi, I recently Rooted and successfully update my FireTV to the new Software Ver#. 51.1.3.0_513011820 Pre-Rooted Stock Software by rbox. I then attached a usb keyboard (Logitech) to help setup XBMC on my Firetv. The problem I'm having is my FireTV remote has stop working and the usb keyboard has taken over control of the fireTv. How can I reset my firetv remote as the primary controller?
Thanks for Any advise.

Hi Guys,
Just bought the fire tv and was looking to sideload the kodi app to it. Unfortunately at home I don't have access to a computer so have brought it into work were I work on both mac and pc. I am unable to connect via hdmi to view the menu options but should be able to tell the ip address of my fire tv via my network.
My question is if I sideload an app and once finished I power down the fire tv will this work when I go home and power back on again?
I have already enabled adb debugging at home.
Thanks for your time
Darren
Shouldn't be an issue..
If you have an android phone you can sideload via agk fire
Hi this is my first post in the forum,
I'd been using FireTV with XBMX 13.2 for a while. I rooted it and had a good config with Llama that made the device to boot directly to XBMC.
I have tried to upgrade to Kodi with ADB Install (Not using -r). From the Android Applications I could start Kodi fine but wanted to have it boot to kodi directly so I did a ADB uninstall org.xbmc.xbmc. from my pc After that FireTV got hanged when rebooted on the Amazon FireTV screen and could not get in anymore as it stopped to be visible on the network(Can´t ping).
Is there any workaround/solution to this situation?
I read in other site that I should plug a usb keyboard to solve it is this the only way? In that case I will have to find one as I mine is PS2.
Thanks a lot.
Help please, after my GEN 1 fire TV updated to the latest firmware 5.0.5 my Samsung sound bar will no longer play audio from the fire TV.
If I plug the fire TV into the TV direct I have sound. (What have they removed from this firmware as this worked on the previous firmware)
Tried all audio settings and factory reset. (This is definitely firmware related - maybe HDMI CEC related )
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Apparently support for the DisneyLife app is coming to the Stick but is currently only available on Android TV and the Fire TV.
Has anyone got the TV apk I can try sideloading or has anyone tried it already on the stick?
Have successfully tried the normal android device apk but its touch screen heavy so difficult to navigate!
Thanks!
I've got a first gen fire tv box with a remote that doesn't want to detect the remote. and being as it wont let me pass the setup im looking for any fix for this ? Im still able to access the stock recovery so is their any ota's i can flash ? or any other method to root the box without being in the system ?
is the box fubar ?
Dumb question but did you put the remote in pairing mode when you are trying to connect? You can always connect a keyboard to navigate through the set up. As for rooting, you should check AFTVnews for guides if you are on a rootable software version.
Hey I just got a gen2 firestick from a friend and it didn't come with a remote is there any way to set it up without remote I have a gen 1 firestick I use the remote app on it but can't connect with the new one due to it not being set up Any suggestions
Adb probably isn't enabled, is it?
My Fire TV stick 2 suddenly refused to recognize my remote but I could send a few key presses via adb and suddenly the remote worked again.
