      i have a 4kMax firestick. When i "move" the app from Xplore from Apps to Internal Shared Storage Downloader it creates an apk file. I install it. However, it opens but remains an apk file and it remains also on the left screen under Apps on the Internal Storage. I also do not get the disk symbol in Manage Installed Applications that the app was moved. What am i doing wrong? Also - the downloader is in Shared Internal Storage. Why we i not be putting the App in the external storage usb under a New File? Would appreciate help.

    Hey Tanya, I first of all want to say thank you for your fantastic work. Your videos are very straight forward and easy to understand. Apologies for this long message but I want to explain as much as possible the assistance I need. I feel like a proper idiot asking this, so embarrassing but I’m struggling with E-xplore. If possible I'd be so grateful for your help because I've watched other people's videos, but you are seriously the best of the best! Your explanation and guidance are like no other out there. I have a 3rd Gen fire-stick and I bought all the tools needed to make sure I could have multiple ports for USBs and multi-HDMI switchess a 255gb flash drive which I followed your instructions because it initially wouldn’t let me convert to FAT32.
    I was able to fix that with your help and I now have my set up just like the one in your video which I loved!! "insane setup for firestick" that enables you to plug the UGREEN adapter through Ethernet. It also allowed me to insert my small 256GB flash drive and I have a Bluetooth keyboard on the way so I felt really good about the setup. I am now however confused to bits using e-xplore.
    I’m unable to see my external storage anywhere on the app e-xplore, but I have moved some apps following your instructions and been able to verify they are on the external storage (I think) because when I checked my apps, I could see the little USB thing next to the ones I chose to move. Some apps though take up to 5 minutes to load, while other close down. I remember when you said that certain apps work better on internal storage so I'm working on that but on your videos, it looks so easy, even though I’m transferring to what I think is my 256Gb storage, I’m finding that e-xplore app randomly closes or disconnects. I've literally spent 4 or 5 hours going over each of your videos but I thought I'd reach out to the legend yourself because my external storage device which is a SanDisk doesn't appear on either the right or left side of e-xplore. The page just looks like a duplicate of sorts and I haven't got a clue what to do with the centre console. One final thing is I keep getting told I can't install apps when moving them because of "not enough space" I need to make my external storage as a default but I can deal with that when it comes to it. I'm assuming you live in the UK which is so much easier but I know you have hundreds of thousands of subscribers so I know you may never see this but I love your work! I rely on your experience and your knowledge blows my mind 🙂. Apologies again for the long message. Best wishes from Newcastle UK 🇬🇧

      Hi. To answer why you cannot see your external store in X-pore, this video will help: CAN'T SEE FIRESTICK USB STORAGE | FIRESTICK STORAGE HELP - th-cam.com/video/3P4N7pmtfxQ/w-d-xo.html.
      As you have partitioned your storage to additional system storage, any apps you install will install the external USB as a default, unless the permissions are denied within the app you are installing - as set by the app developers.
      Hope this helps!

    Tanya, thanks again for this video, you make it easy to follow and install what is needed. It is too bad the Firestick 4k only has 8 gigs of memory. When you think that a micro sd card can easily have 32 gigs, this device should have a lot more memory. In the future I'm betting it will. Then they can sell more sticks. Take care and wear that mask.

      Unfortunately, this does appear to be an issue. As far as I am aware there are only 2 choices: 1) Uninstall the app and then re-install the updated app from my Filelinked (or other source). 2) Move the app to your internal storage, update the app and move it back to the external storage. Sorry I cannot give you a better answer that that right now. I hope this helps! Thank you for watching 😊👍❤️

Fight the good fight. Anyway, i movied alot of apps to external storage watching your old video using adb shell. Some apps just don't work right on external. But now firestick installs every app to the external. I have to go to abd shell (long process) to move them back. Can I use this newer process to move them back to internal? Thanks

      Unfortunately not. All applications will default to install to your additional system storage. If you want an app to install to your internal, the best solution is to temporarily disconnect your storage, install the app then add reattach your storage. Thank you for watching 😊👍❤️

I picked up one of the USB drives from your video, and wallah! It has to be a problem with that USB drive. The laptop/PCs see it, but not the Firestick 4K. I am thrilled with my new performance since following your instructions on moving the apk(s), and reinstalling to see the on the USB drive. I no longer have infinite buffering requiring reboot, nor the need to reset my router. THANK YOU AGAIN!

    I have a few questions I'm hoping you'll help me with....
    1. Can you tell me how to move apps "as a whole package & keep the settings & passwords?"
    2. This is a 2 part question.
    A. I've been looking for a Usb for my Firestick 4k & not sure what the best one to get is (64gb,128 or higher? I have no idea how much space apps take up).
    B. I seen in one of your other videos something about when using an "otg cable" with a Usb, it needs to be "FAT32" (If I understood that correctly) how do I format it when I get one?
    3. My Daughter has Comcast at her home & she had me download the "Xfinity Stream" app on my tablet to be able to "watch away from home" her home.
    (before I ever got my firestick 4k).
    And, now I'd really love to watch it on my TV (bigger screen). I found a few old TH-cam videos for the xfinity stream app & talking about also downloading a toggle (they're a year old) that said to download the "Downloader" & type in a web address, but the address doesn't do anything.
    I then found an xfinity stream app, but it's not the same thing. (it's not actual streaming!")
    I am hoping you can help me, I am trying to watch the "lifetime movie Channel" through streaming which my daughter has & given me permission to use.
    & You seem so smart at everything about the Firestick 4k!
    Thank you very much! And,
    God bless you

    I really enjoy your shows and have learned much from your firestick tricks. However I don't quite know the difference in external storage and extended internal. I have he new firestick 4k max and have installed a sandisk of 256 gig. I need to know if there is a way I can save my movie files from Tivimate and store them on my firestick without it using the firestick memory so I run out of internal space. If I format the usb to be used as external storage, I assume I will see it on xplorer and I can add my movies to that drive. Will I still be able to use the apps in the firestick? I plan on moving all my apps that I can to the external storage. Will all this work?

Since you gave me the link for this video on Wednesday, I decided to try it, then try ATV or Wolf Launcher in order to fix my Gray Icons. Today (Sunday afternoon) I did the things that you suggested in this video. When I was finished, I had no more Gray Icons. ALL of the Icons were showing. WOW!!! I'm still going to set up the Launcher, but I wanted to let you know about this occurrence. I Hope You're Having A Wonderful Day!!!

    Thank you I have watched most of your video's and they are very helpful..I have my usb external drive working now thank you.. when we partition the usb if we type in disk: 8,0 and leave out the private will we be able to see it in x-plore? if so it would make it easier to move files..

    • @FireTVSticks
      @FireTVSticks  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depending on how you add your storage will affect how you can see your storage in X-plore.
      If you use ADB to partition your storage as PRIVATE, you are no longer able to view the contents. It is inaccessible by any file explorer application. You will need to use the df -h command to see your storage space. Here is a video showing you how - th-cam.com/video/RI6Gj0zwdQw/w-d-xo.html
      If you use ADB to partition your storage as MIXED, you will ONLY be able to see the partition of your storage that is not allocated to system storage by using X-plore. This is a great way to explore that part of your storage - th-cam.com/video/zM52i-VhjPU/w-d-xo.html

      @FireTVSticks  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depending on how you added your storage will affect how you can see your storage in a file explorer. As I do not know what you have done with your storage, here are all the possible answers:
      If you only attached storage and didn't do anything else to it (like allocate or partition to system storage) then this is a great way to explore your storage - th-cam.com/video/zM52i-VhjPU/w-d-xo.html
      If you used ADB to partition your storage as PRIVATE, you are no longer able to view the contents. It is inaccessible by any file explorer application. You will need to use the df -h command to see your storage space. Here is a video showing you how - th-cam.com/video/RI6Gj0zwdQw/w-d-xo.html

      If you have Fire OS 7 and storage was added via the Fire TV settings, you will not be able to explore that storage device.

    Thank you for the knowledgeable video, very informative 🙏🏻
    It’s a shame we’ve come to this point in time when we have to add our own external storage (after paying for a reliable service) because big tech names know there’s huge profit to be made from never receiving enough storage space to actually continue to view some decent TV 🤷🏼‍♂️
    You pay to upgrade devices for receiving more decent TV stations, then pay for external compatible wires that can then connect extra storage- which then need to have settings changed/converted to hold extra storage.. Bla bla
    Obviously big tech companies know this so why not just sell (more expensive packages) with extra storage on a external device plan ?? 🤷🏼‍♂️
    Basically we could have decent terrestrial TV without any of these baffling extras - just use advertising as terrestrial TV has done since day one 👍🏻

    • @FireTVSticks

    the app installed in usb drive run good? or they are slow performance?

    • @FireTVSticks
      @FireTVSticks  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      What storage you use is down to you, but there are few things you need to consider when choosing your USB storage. I personally use and recommend the SanDisk 32GB Flash Drive
      Amazon US - amzn.to/3aYwuGe
      Amazon UK - amzn.to/3vQy05t
      As Fire TV devices are formatted to FAT32, the maximum size of USB storage that you can use is 2TB, however, Amazon officially recommends using USB drives that are 128GB or smaller.
      Amazon also recommends that high speed USB 3.0 drives are used, even though Fire TV Devices have a 2.0 USB port because USB 3.0 drives tend to have faster read/write speeds and will perform better, even when connected to USB 2.0 ports.
      You also need to be aware that with this process, your Fire TV device is likely to run slower when launching apps and moving around the menus as files on your USB storage cannot be read as fast as they can be read directly on the internal device storage. I hope this helps. Thank you for watching 😊👍❤️

    @MrClean464 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video - thanks for taking the time to record it for us. I have a 4k Max, which I have successfully added the USB to, and have succeeded in moving some apps that allowed it from App Manager, and when I installed X-Plore, it installed onto the USB drive automatically. However, I have two issues with the instructions for moving an app via X-Plore: 1/I do not have a "Downloader" folder in Internal Storage - I have "Download", which I was successful in moving my app (MAX) to, 2/after successfully moving my app's apk to Download, when I click Install, it tells me I don't have enough space to install the app. So, it appears it is still trying to install it on the FireStick's internal storage, instead of the external storage. Any suggestions?

    • @FireTVSticks
      @FireTVSticks  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think that the problem you are facing is due to X-plore being installed on your external drive. To try and resolve this, can you uninstall X-plore, remove the power from your Firestick, detach the USB drive, attach the power to Firestick, install X-plore on the internal storage, remove the power from Firestick, attach the USB storage, and then attach power again?

    Hi Tanya, if this method doesn't transfer app settings, it's the same as uninstalling them normally, and installing them again on the flash drive with Downloader, normally too...

    Followed your video and was able to move apps easily to an external 64 Gb USB drive as you described. Have a 4K FireStick and an OTG cable. As an aside I'm hoping you can help me with this. I divided the 64 Gb USB 3 drive equally into two 32 Gb partitions using the remote ADB Shell utility. The apps were moved to one of the partitions. I want to use the second partition for personal videos and be able to play them using the VLC player. I understand this is the purpose of creating a 2nd partition. I'm stumped seeing this 2nd partition with X-plore and how to transfer videos to it. I would appreciate very much if you could help me with this .... thanks.

    Ran into a bunch of problems. My new Toshiba Fire TV won't allow the file explorer app to be installed by the downloader using that numerical code because the source is not allowed. However I was able to install it from another source. The X-Plore file manager also was installed on the external flash drive and it won't run from that location. I had to move it to internal storage for it to work using the built-in move function in devices (most apps can't be moved this way which is why I was looking for a video to do this). Finally, when trying to move an app to external storage, the instructions to click the center remote button just launches the app, it doesn't open a menu to allow the app to be moved. So I'll have to find another way to move the apps as this doesn't work with a 2021 Toshiba Smart TV.
