It's because your remote isn't connected to your tv, just the firestick. Go to settings/equipment and select your model tv. We have a video on it also to make it easy
Vey helpful tips - ty .... Question on sound and if there is any assistance thru the fstick. We have noticed that a lot of programs , movies, shows have a big sound discrepancy with dialog vs background / music , etc. - while using the fstick ... Any settings or fixes that u or anyone knows of ?? thanks
Great question. So there are a few things. Some are firestick related, some are tv related and some are just the app. I would suggest getting a Bluetooth sound bar. Solves all issues
as I Live in Ireland & i Like watching TV Series like NCIS, NCIS L.A, NCIS Hawaii, C.S.I Miami, Magnum P.I, Hawaii Five O, etc what is the best site to watch them on without any buffing?
I installed the Firestick and have beautiful picture but no sound from my Polk soundbar, which worked fine with cable and still works with the DVD. Everything the remote instructed to do was done. Any suggestions?
I have already installed the new 4k Max. If I unplug the new stick and plug the old 4k to do a factory reset will that screw up my new sticks setting. I don't want the hassle of having to reinstall all my apps on my new stick. Also have extra remote for my 4k will pairing it to the new stick cause any problem?
I was just showing the options. I was using a screen capture card that would only go so high. I normally have the 4k setting on (capture device would not go that high).
Hi- great video! my LG TV keeps starting up and I have to hit the HDMI button to get it to go to my Firestick. My Fire Stick is the only thing that I use I don’t have cable. How can I fix so I don't have to use TV remote to hit HDMI ?
maybe you can help, my fire stick is linked to an older Sony Bravia (about10-12 yrs old). When I try and voice activate a change in input (to my receiver), the fire stick does not recognize my HDMI2, going instead to HDMI4 where I have nothing plugged in. Cannot figure out if it is the TV or fire stick.
You have awesome videos and I have learned so much from you thank you I need your help I got a message on my background processing app it states it needs to be updated yet I've tried and not successful can you help me please
You can either update through aptoide, or uninstall and reinstall. If they haven't updated it in the Amazon App Store yet, then you'll need to use aptoide
I have a 2nd gen 4 k firestick and my remote doesn’t scroll, it only goes from the top to the bottom of the screen. Tried resetting it and it’s still doing the same thing.
They don't have open subs anymore except for android boxes. It's free on there. You can always reach out on patreon if you want free iptvs. We post them for members
apparently this is supposed to allow one firestick to control both tv's. and nope, didn't work. it also stopped working for the one tv it was working on.
You have to turn your new firestick open to developer mode. Did you jailbeak the stick? We have a video called "develeoper options missing?" You will have to turn those setting on before you can add 3rd party apps.
@@CuriosityCafe frankly, I was hitting the various buttons while watching the video. The light works, but every attempt has failed to get the firestick to react. I have unplugged, rebooted, removed the batteries, and then rinse and repeated every step 10 times. No response.
Sounds like you did the unsyc from our video. So just do the re-sync. The key combination is there. Make sure no other firestick is on and close to the one you want to sync to
To sync your remote with a Firestick please follow the steps below. Unplug the firestick from power outlet Plug in the firestick and wait until it is completely booted up and in the menu. Hold down the "Home" button for 10 seconds. This should pair the remote please note that if it pairs, it still takes about 20 seconds before it will work. During those 20 seconds DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS ON THAT REMOTE. just go have lunch or something
@CuriosityCafe You da man. Mucho Grassyass! I couldn't get that screen for the disconnect at all, so doing the home button wasn't doing anything. I appreciate the help!

Great video...thanks.
My display resolution looks better already! Thank you.
Perfect, I like the hard reset code.
Great video and short cuts. Having issues with closed captions if you have any videos on that
What's the issue? What's the app?
On the last one, do you have to have your TV on to reset to the factory settings?
Technically no, but it would be easier to see where you are on the reset
Thanks, very helpful!
Outstanding. Thank you
Thank you for the information I appreciate that 👍👍👍👍👍

Handy information to know, thanks.
Great video,how do i take a channel off favourites. Thank you in advance 👌
Awesome. Thx for the info
@Curiosity Cafe
Why did you choose 1080p at 30 hz instead of 1080p at 60 hz? Why not the "Auto" setting?
I was just showing the options. I was using a screen capture card that would only go so high. I normally have the 4k setting on (capture device would not go that high).

Plug it into your other hdmi port. There is one that's the default
How do I pair my firestick so I don’t have to use both my TV emote and firestick to move to open my house button

You need to plug the firestick into the HDCP HDMI port to use tv functions
Usually only one port is labeled this
Thank you

I have a 2nd gen 4 k firestick and my remote doesn’t scroll, it only goes from the top to the bottom of the screen. Tried resetting it and it’s still doing the same thing.
Sounds like a damaged remote to me. Did you contact amazon for warranty?
@@CuriosityCafe not yet. Waiting for my 4K max to arrive.
There is a remote code to monitor memory usage, what is it?

I did not know about the resolution code.

Wrong video
My remote is not connecting back to the fire stick
What was the reason for disconnecting? Did you do the remote code and then leave the remote alone? Sometimes it takes a while
The up button and rewind didn't work for me
Might want to rewatch. Prob doing it wrong
Thanks
I have followed the step till I got to install n it won’t
You have to turn your new firestick open to developer mode. Did you jailbeak the stick? We have a video called "develeoper options missing?" You will have to turn those setting on before you can add 3rd party apps.
Anyone know of a good movie app that doesn’t buffer??
There are a ton of them. We have them all posted on Patreon (the free ones without ads). We aren't allowed to share those here on YT
Awesome
Hallo aus München.bin immer noch wach

Hey hello sir 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I did something wrong and now the remote won't function at all. Sigh 😢
1. what did you do?
2. what were you trying to do?
3. did you resync it with the remote code to do that?
