Gen. 2 stick. Got safe mode by your method but it won't open settings icon. Just lights it up. Open other icons and it just loops on them. Obviously Firesticks need a manual reset push pin on the stick itself. Won't waste money on another unless they get one that's for sure.

1) That's not an OTG cable, it's a mini hub. *if* it supports OTG at all (most of them don't; a few of them claim to but don't), it's entirely irrelevant to this problem. (If anyone used an actual OTG cable this wouldn't work - no power.) 2) Fire TV sticks do not have a 'charging port'. The micro-b input is the power supply - there's no internal battery in the fire TV stick. So disconnecting the power supply and plugging in an unpowered hub is not going to power it up. You quietly ignored the fact that you must have had to use an external power supply for that hub - which will be an uncommon round plug, not a micro usb that people might already have, i.e. one more thing to buy.

Should send you mine, it gets stuck in the boot loop every day..lol, or goes into shutdown and once in shutdown or standby, it will not come out! I have a Firestick 4K Max, and this has always done to on mine from new, and the Firestick was new this year. Whenever mine goes into SHUTDOWN it never comes out. Totally frustrating and annoying as I used to be a TV and Satellite technician, so pretty good on all things audio and video tech lol I now use an OTG cable as that is the only way I can get it to start after it has shutdown, and only way it comes out of standby is to "HOLD SELECT AND PLAY BUTTON DOWN FOR 10 seconds" it then resumes boot up, which then loads to the Home screen after loading. - Something else it does as well, it will not recognise no External Memory Storage from USB stick, I have tried 3 OTG cables to get an external USB memory stick to be recognised with no joy, plus 4 different brands of memory cards/sticks, all with no joy. - This Amazon 4k Max Firestick is fully up to date, if it didn't have these minor faults I would love it, but tend to find myself going back to use the Android box I have, since that is much more reliable, and so much easier to bootup, and if it goes into standby it comes out with a simple push of a button, something my Firestick has never done. - By the way.. AWESOME CHANNEL!
