I have the regular Fire (newer 2015 version). My android (S6) can't find the device. My android is connected via wireless to the same router as the Fire as a wired connection. If I reboot Fire TV it usually will work but then next time I try to connect it will fail.

I have this annoying issue that my Amazon Fire TV is connected to my router with an ethernet cable for optimal network performance, yet on the other hand this makes it not discoverable when using the iOS app to find the Fire TV since the latter is not connected to the same SSID. Any suggestions?
------------UPDATE-----------
My issue was stemming due to incompatibility with the older Fire TV firmware, as soon as I updated to the latest firmware it worked flawlessly.
Since 5.2.1.1 update, my sideloaded Fios TV Mobile, DishAnywhere, and Mouse Toggle for Fire Tv apps are "not compatible with your device", on my Aftv 2. I guess this is because of Nimh.apk that was included in the update? Any workarounds to blocking the Nimh.apk from any Fire TV devices or Fire TV sticks, that haven't been updated yet?
Hi everyone, sorry my ugly English but I'm using a translator
My Canadian friend gave me an amazon fire TV stick but no remote control. I tried to download universal remote control applications but I can not connect it with my fire tv stick. I plugged the fire stick on the TV and it works but I can not make the settings because I'm without remote control. How can I do? thank you all
P.S. I am in Italy and amazon does not install me amazon fire tv and amazon fire tv remote app
Your Fire TV Stick needs to connect to a the internet to receive any data/commands from a universal remote app. I would recommend asking for your friends WiFi network name and password. Then create a mobile hotspot with the same name and password as your friend's network. The stick will connect and you can then configure the stick to use your own WiFi. If that is not possible a Ethernet to USB OTG adapter could provide the connection but that would require a v2 stick.

Hi all , weird issue , I use a VPN on all my fire tv devices ( 2 sticks 1 cube ) my android phone and android tablet, VPN can be used on 6 devices . If I use the VPN on any of my fire tv devices and then use the VPN on my phone it causes the VPN on the fire tv to disconnect and reconnect! Even if I'm only using 1 stick at a time then on my phone too . If I use the VPN on my tablet then use it on my phone everything is fine , why would using it on my phone interfere with the fire tv ? If I load up the tablet whilst watching the fire tv it doesn't cause an issue ! Thanks
