this young lady know what's she's talking about, I'm glad I came across this video. I was able to fix my problem. In my particular case, the reason was that stick was too hot because I use it on a plasma TV and they have the tendency of getting kinda hot. Thank you!!!
OMG! You’re a life saver. I’ve tried everything before this video and nothing worked. I’ve stopped the video in 4:58 and it worked perfectly. Thank you. I was about to box my AFTV box and use a different one,but you were a God sent. Keep doing the great job. Cheers! 👍🙏👏👏👏👏👏😊🤗
I tried everything before watching your video. Took your advice and disconnected USB from TV and used the Amazon power adaptor. Problem solved. Thank you. You are a star ⭐️
Thank you for this "boot loop fixed" video!! I had tried almost all of the tricks, but checking the parts and TV ports worked! It was either the Amazon adapter that came with our 4K Fire stick or the TV HDMI port we were using or both. Either way it is now working! Great video!
FireTVSticks thank you for the help today! I was stuck in bootloops earlier and now they are all fixed it seems. Was using a poor USB- micro B cable to power the firestick, once applied a new micro B cable I am not in bootloop and :) thank you
On mine too, I did a bunch a troubleshooting tried different fharging adapters, and cables. Found out it was the not original cable, the original has indentations on both connectors. For troubleshooting purposes I connected cable to my phone and ran the ampere app. It showed the faulty cable charge only at 800 mA and the good original charged at 1300 mA.
Number one worked ..thank God ..I did not want to have to buy a new fire stick.. you were so helpful ..I'm glad I found you as quick as I did on here.. keep up the good work .. a very happy UA-cam viewer..USA..
Great video! I have a question because I don’t know if this could be an indication of the fire stick not working but I tried the restart and factory reset method with the remote but nothing is happening at all. I even changed the batteries to make sure that wasn’t the reason why nothing was happening, but the message of shutting down or asking if I want to factory reset still didn’t display. I was holding the button down for a while too lol. In that case what should I do? Thank you in advance
My friend has a problem with his Fire stick it doesn’t boot at all just a black screen - I have tried it in my tv using all my wires and HDMI that didn’t work either. Plugged mine back in and it does work so I know there’s no issue with the ports/cables. Any idea what it could be or how to fix it please? Thanks
I got a firecube and had about just over a year, one day and turned it on It just went black I tried everything changed cables changed hdmi cable left it off over night but it's still black & won't do anything only thing I haven't done is talked Amazon that's my next step thanks to you for mentioning it in your video😅
Another great video from T. Only thing that worked for me was getting a 4k Max. I gave up on the standard 4k model after 3 faulty units in a row! If its less than a year Amazon should replace the unit itself at the very least. I had the credit for a full price one put back in my account then i spent the extra £5. That was even though i bought it half price during black Friday. Theres apparently LOADS of dodgy sticks around guys so beware if none of these great tips work you probably have one!
Mine has just done this to me started acting up 2 weeks ago but today it’s not working at all / been unplugging - rebooting my router/ it’s about 2 years old…… I assumed it would last longer…… I’m using the items that came in the box. It’s loaded the storage optimisation window after unplugging everything for the 5th time. It’s now stuck on optimisation window and I’m unable to force a reboot/reset. Il try leaving it longer…..
I've noticed that mine seems to do this only when my fiestick only has less than 1 gb left. They sure don't give you much room! Now I have to delete most apps. I only keep a few that I regularly watch... then reinstall one if i want to watch a particular show. Since I have youtube, Netflix & Hulu already built into my TV, I don't put them on my firestick. I make sure to always have at least 2gb left. Plus, clearing each apps cache helps too.
I love you i love you i love you. I was going crazy for dayyyysss. I had lost the usb cord that came with it when I moved and tried everything and it didn’t work out. 2secondes with your video I went and tried all my different android usb cord and it worked !!!!!!
Great video, you covered all bases :) I was using with a Sony Bravia, I tried several USB adapters (even 3A), but when connected with original USB power adapter, worked solid. Also ensure proper TV settings made. Thanks
Excellent video. May I suggest you update your keywords as you do not come up in searches for rebooting, error messages, etc. It is hard to find your video.
i tried everything - unpliuged overnight - booted to homescreen then restarted itself now still stuck on firetv logo -- tried safemode (mute and minus buttons) -- loaded but then crashed and then eventually restarted -- tried factory reset... now in a bootloop that never ends... cant even get anything.. "resetting your firetv cube".. "the system update had failed" "resetting firetv cube" "the system update has failed" ... been that for days now.. amazon dont seem to care
amazon told me to do a factory reset -- and NOW they say "as you reset it deactivated it off your account, so we cannot send you a replacement device" (yet its only 3 months old!)
Same scenario here until 1 day it won't open anymore. I don't know why, something hanging up for no reason. Last time was my son playing a high graphic game using my fire tv stick 4k that he downloaded and then all of the sudden hanging up or no response in the hdmi port.
Tried everything except the keyboard method since I don't have the parts handy. Tried a usb wireless mouse to see if it was recognized. That didn't work. I think this is for for the trash. Remote isn't paired. I can't pair it. Since it's looping it then eventually freezes on the no homescreen message. Won't respond to the factory reset combo either.
Thanks for replying I did respond but for some reason it's not showing, I have tried all the unplugging etc. but it's still stuck on the solid blue light, stays on for a short time then goes out, then it comes back on repeat, (there's also a light blueish coloured light sweeps from side to side in the background of the solid light) It's been unplugged for days, plugged it in and back to the same as above. I have tried a factory reset using buttons on the cube but nothing happens, and it's still just the fire tv logo on screen, so possibly it's for the skip. It's around £130 for a new one, decided to set up an old fire stick instead. /Basically it's like it's totally Frozen. Cheers Andy
Hello, I recently purchased an OTG cable, as well as a wired keyboard, and attempted to get it into safe mode, however, I know it isn't recognizing the keyboard, because when I press the caps lock button, nothing happens, however, when plugged directly into my MacBook Pro, it worked, and I also tried to see if it would work plugging it into the USB port on my tv, but it wouldn't work that way either. Is there something I could be doing wrong?
Tonya, nice video. If you decide to update your video, let everyone know that they will need the serial number to the device when calling amazon. If they have more than one device, Amazon will want to know which one it is causing the problem. If they are not sure and Amazon deletes the device (Which they do for returns) then there will be an issue if the wrong device is deleted. Then mutiple devices will have to be sent back. They can't undo the delete process from Online because it shuts down the process of your wifi connection to firestick and they can know longer connect via theirs. Once deleted the stick it is useless until it gets to their team of trouble shooters who refurbish them. Have a wonderful day.
please I need help, I don't know if you can answer me please, but I have an error and it's that the recommended ones don't appear on the home screen but the apps do load, I don't know how I could send you a photo so you can see my error

I just bought a video capture device and am wondering if the video capture device will allow me to start the firestick in safe mode? Thank you for your help.
My problem is when I power it on, the screen will boot up and show all of my applications, but when I click on an application, it’ll just take me back to the Home Screen. If I wait too long the screen will go black and say “There was an error that prevented this from loading.” I’ve done everything on the video except for factory resetting it and I just emailed Amazon, I’m not sure what else to do, I may just buy a new one but if there is something else, please let me know, thank you
Well, I suppose I could’ve tried a new cable or adapter for my old fire stick but I just ended up buying a new one with the upgrade option and saved a bit of money. So I think it was about $25 with tax. I am in the USA and new fire stick is working like a charm. Just be sure you only get the 4K if your TV is compatible with that. I have an older Sony model that is not 4K it’s just HD, so I just got to the upgraded version of the fire stick compatible with this TV. This is my third fire stick, they do not last forever. I had added a few more apps for streaming on my older Firestick that may have been the end of its life as I knew it.
I've had my Amazon FireTV for several years. I was watching Hulu last night, and my screen froze mid-broadcast. It remained frozen all night. I was tired of looking at the frozen image, so I closed my entertainment center so that I wouldn't have to continue looking at the frozen image. This morning, I opened up my entertainment center and the screen was no longer frozen, but it was just black/blank. I tried pressing and holding down buttons on the remote control, but the screen remained blank. My entertainment center has two power outlets, one on top of the other. The power cord was plugged into the top outlet, and it has always been plugged into that outlet since I've owned the tv. I unplugged the power cord from the top outlet and plugged it into the bottom outlet. VOILA! That did the trick! The tv powered up and I was able to select channels and watch tv again!
I'm trying to fix a friends stick but the key board wont stay powered long enough for me to input to key strokes, (it does power on for around 5 seconds though as its led so i can see). the keyboard is fine as it works and powers normally when i use it with my own stick, baffled why its not staying powered on. Love the channel✌
Is your friend's Firestick powered by a USB port on the back of their TV? If so, it probably isn't providing enough power. You would need to use the power adapter.
I have a 2nd generation firestick and I've tried everything to no avail. I changed hdmi ports, tried different USB cables, used power cable, unplugged and waited, plugged directly into port without extender, left it plugged in for days, plugged it into a different TV and still nothing works. I tried a factory reset with the remote but it won't respond to the command either I think it's just fried.
Hello there hope you're having a great day. I have a problem with my fire tv, it is on the bootup screen but nothing seemed to work trying to get it into the home screen or at least finishing up the booting. I've contacted Amazon and Toshiba and they gave me steps to try and solve the problem but everything failed, and of course, my warranty ran out The remote control's LED flashes whenever I push the buttons signaling that there is no connection but the power button only works. Pls help it will be much appreciated.
@@FireTVSticks I believe my 2nd Gen FireTV is a lost cause. I have tried several times using a keyboard, without any luck. Also tried other methods without any luck. That firmware update it took wiped it out and Amazon because of it was out of warranty only wanted to offer me $5 towards a new replacement. That sounds like a scam to me.. I would like to learn about a non Amazon Android type box using the Google Play store that will also let me sideload apps. The storage capabilities of the Firestick is terrible even if you can move apps to a USB or SD card your not really moving the full size of the app.
Hi Tanya I have a problem with my 4k Firestick not in a bot lop but stuck on Profile screen . When I select one the screen goes black. IF I press home button the menu screen flashes up and disappears so you cant get to the settings. It was my main Firestick with all my apps on USB drive and wired Network. I Dont think i can even get to factory reset it. JOHN S
Hey, great videos as always - question for you - I live in UK and have a USA Aptment I have a USA DirectV account back in the USA and want to log in to it in the UK on my firestick when im in the UK but I cant find a Directv app anywhere that will work on my firestick - Do you know where I can download one please that works. thank you
You may be able to get it from the Aptoide app store. Here's how to install Aptoide - ua-cam.com/video/xhTZM-TS6cU/v-deo.html However, even if you are successful in installing the DirecTV app, you may not be able to view the content as it is restricted to viewers in the USA. In that case, you may need Nord VPN to bypass any geographical restrictions - nordvpn.com/firetvsticks
Shuts off by itself and i have to restart by unplugging from outlet to restart it. It keeps doing it over and over 4K firestick TV connected with wire, not WiFi
Also you can turn on the TV and as soon as you see the FIRETV logo come up on the screen unplug the TV. Leave it off for a couple of minutes and plug back in. That worked for me.
Hello, my Fire TV 4K Max device is stuck on the logo at startup. I've done this many times but it doesn't work. When restarting with the keyboard, will Caps Lock be active or disabled?

THANK YOU! Amazon could not resolve my issue but 3 minutes into your presentation, I fixed my issue!
A hammer and Roku fixed my problem. I feel better now.
I tried everything before watching your video. Took your advice and disconnected USB from TV and used the Amazon power adaptor. Problem solved. Thank you. You are a star ⭐️
Thank you so much for this video and yesterday my fire stick did froze since yesterday and this morning my screen came back on.
Thanks. Not sure which one worked, but thanks to you, I didn't have to trash my firestick.
Thank you for this "boot loop fixed" video!!
I had tried almost all of the tricks, but checking the parts and TV ports worked! It was either the Amazon adapter that came with our 4K Fire stick or the TV HDMI port we were using or both. Either way it is now working!

FireTVSticks thank you for the help today!
I was stuck in bootloops earlier and now they are all fixed it seems. Was using a poor USB- micro B cable to power the firestick, once applied a new micro B cable I am not in bootloop and :)
thank you
TANYA, I MIGHT GIVE THAT A TRY. I TRY EVERY TRICK IN THE BOOK. THANKS FOR THE TIP HAVE A NICE DAY. TAKE CARE.
Fixed! Changed the micro-usb cable 😊 thanks!
Replacing the power cord worked. Great advice! Thanks
You're welcome!
On mine too, I did a bunch a troubleshooting tried different fharging adapters, and cables. Found out it was the not original cable, the original has indentations on both connectors. For troubleshooting purposes I connected cable to my phone and ran the ampere app. It showed the faulty cable charge only at 800 mA and the good original charged at 1300 mA.
I dont know exactly which procedure worked, but I got it working thanks to you
Glad it helped.
THANK YOU!!!!! I was going to give up. This is the only video that actually helped me. Thanks again!!!
Glad I could help!
Yup. Fire stick would not even be detected before. But I changed the cable and immediately started working. Thanks a bunch ❤
Great to hear!
Note: on some keyboards the menu key is also labeled the CTRL on the right side of the keyboard. Great Job.
Wow. Wow. Thanks you for helping me. I just restarted and everything works perfect. Thanks you…
Glad it helped
Thank you so much ..After watching this video, my problem of stuck has been fixed .🙏
Boot loop sequence fixed! It was the USB power plug. Glad I found your video. Thank you!
How could the USB not work if it poeered it up fornyou tonsee then logo?
My stick was stuck in connecting to the network, so the reset using the remote worked. Thanks!
Consejos de gran ayuda, que bueno. Gracias Tanya.
Thank you 🙏. I plugged fire stick into hdmi2 and it’s working perfectly 👏🥳
Great info. I switched HDMI inputs and that fixed the problem. Thanks
Same here, she’s the best ❤
Thanks Tanya, resetting from the remote worked for me. Love your presenting style, keep em coming.

The keyboard ⌨️ trick worked for me. You are a darling, thanks 🙏👍❤
Thank you, Yep the problem was (me putting the usb cable into the TV), So BIG thank you all sorted
Oh my god, your tip about how to boot into safe mode with a keyboard saved my Fire Stick. Thank you so much :)
Qué problema presentaba el tuyo?
Did you use a wired keyboard? Or a usb wireless? I tried a wireless one and it didn’t work, unfortunately
Great video! I have a question because I don’t know if this could be an indication of the fire stick not working but I tried the restart and factory reset method with the remote but nothing is happening at all.

I was holding the button down for a while too lol. In that case what should I do? Thank you in advance

Did you power down your internet router?
Thank you for this video. Apparently I was just using the wrong adapter box in the socket. Accidentally switched the boxes when moving.
Thanks finally worked!

Great tip , must bear that in mind as i have to contact amazon as my stick only has a black screen now . Hopefully have original box .
My 4k Max is frozen on "updating". The updating bar loads up to 30% and it stay there forever. Have you hear from this issue??? Any idea 💡? Thanks!!!!
Have you tried all of the tips in this video? Including changing the cables and power supply?
Thank you it worked for me.

I'm trying to fix a friends stick but the key board wont stay powered long enough for me to input to key strokes, (it does power on for around 5 seconds though as its led so i can see).
the keyboard is fine as it works and powers normally when i use it with my own stick,
baffled why its not staying powered on.
Love the channel✌
Is your friend's Firestick powered by a USB port on the back of their TV? If so, it probably isn't providing enough power. You would need to use the power adapter.
Cool video Tanya
I have a 2nd generation firestick and I've tried everything to no avail. I changed hdmi ports, tried different USB cables, used power cable, unplugged and waited, plugged directly into port without extender, left it plugged in for days, plugged it into a different TV and still nothing works. I tried a factory reset with the remote but it won't respond to the command either I think it's just fried.
As also mentioned as a tip in the video, have you tried talking to Amazon?
Short of talking to Amazon, I also tried everything and no luck
Same issue😢
Hello there hope you're having a great day.
I have a problem with my fire tv, it is on the bootup screen but nothing seemed to work trying to get it into the home screen or at least finishing up the booting. I've contacted Amazon and Toshiba and they gave me steps to try and solve the problem but everything failed, and of course, my warranty ran out The remote control's LED flashes whenever I push the buttons signaling that there is no connection but the power button only works. Pls help it will be much appreciated.
Please confirm you have tried all of the steps in this video? Were you able to enter safe mode?
Do U fixed it?
Hi Tanya great video
Thank you Tanya
Thank you
will the keyboard method work on a FIreTV 2nd Gen?
It should
@@FireTVSticks I believe my 2nd Gen FireTV is a lost cause. I have tried several times using a keyboard,
without any luck. Also tried other methods without any luck. That firmware update it took wiped it out
and Amazon because of it was out of warranty only wanted to offer me $5 towards a new replacement.
That sounds like a scam to me.. I would like to learn about a non Amazon Android type box using the Google
Play store that will also let me sideload apps. The storage capabilities of the Firestick is terrible even if
you can move apps to a USB or SD card your not really moving the full size of the app.
Hi Tanya I have a problem with my 4k Firestick not in a bot lop but stuck on Profile screen . When I select one the screen goes black. IF I press home button the menu screen flashes up and disappears so you cant get to the settings. It was my main Firestick with all my apps on USB drive and wired Network. I Dont think i can even get to factory reset it. JOHN S
Have you tried the tips in this video, i.e. changing the power cable and power supply?
Yes and I tryed all them and even took it to a different TV upstairs.
Very helpful video. Thanks my firestick 4k worked by disconnecting and reconnecting after 2 mins.
Hey, great videos as always - question for you - I live in UK and have a USA Aptment I have a USA DirectV account back in the USA and want to log in to it in the UK on my firestick when im in the UK but I cant find a Directv app anywhere that will work on my firestick - Do you know where I can download one please that works. thank you
You may be able to get it from the Aptoide app store. Here's how to install Aptoide - ua-cam.com/video/xhTZM-TS6cU/v-deo.html
However, even if you are successful in installing the DirecTV app, you may not be able to view the content as it is restricted to viewers in the USA. In that case, you may need Nord VPN to bypass any geographical restrictions - nordvpn.com/firetvsticks
@@FireTVSticks Thanks for the tip I already have nodrd vpn so i will give this method a go - is it the same principle for Peacock TV?
Yippee, a little later... lol have sign in screen. Thank you for this guide, FACTORY RESET worked for me.
Shuts off by itself and i have to restart by unplugging from outlet to restart it. It keeps doing it over and over 4K firestick TV connected with wire, not WiFi
As also mentioned as a tip in the video, have you tried talking to Amazon?
thanks
You're welcome!
*Good shirt Tanya. I have the same 1*
So cool!
Thank you it worked
Glad it helped!
Great info 👍
Glad you think so!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Also you can turn on the TV and as soon as you see the FIRETV logo come up on the screen unplug the TV. Leave it off for a couple of minutes and plug back in. That worked for me.
Hello, my Fire TV 4K Max device is stuck on the logo at startup. I've done this many times but it doesn't work. When restarting with the keyboard, will Caps Lock be active or disabled?
Should be disabled
