    1-10-24🎉😂 💃🏽Thank you, Thank! I was going to toss my TV. I had tried everything to include leaving it unplugged for weeks. Searched for a new video today for the heck of it & found his for the 1st time!! He says unplug TV. Continue to hold the power button as you REPLUG the TV. As soon as you see the fire TV screen logo let the power button GO! If you don't see the reset screen continue to try! It worked the second time because I let the power button go early enough. (This is different from all the OTHER instructions that say continue to hold the power button until the TV turns back on.) After the factory reset. The TV asked if I wanted to use my phone or remote to finish. It took two tries because my Internet is slow. Thankfully, my Amazon settings allowed me to restore everything on the TV💃🏽!💯

    THANK YOU! My Fire TV screen was dead and even with no screen, I followed your instructions and hard reset it. In the video your TV kept making the sound to select language for setup. I knew mine was fully reset when I saw the power light kept pulsating and after a few minutes, I heard that prompting sound from the TV because it wanted to be setup. Now I know I can get rid of the TV and all my personal information's been erased.

Got the tv from a friend and the universal remote worked fine but needed to get rid of their information and did your reset, now it will not “find my remote” even through I can use it to power the tv on and change the language selection.
