The best channel for fire stick and Amazon devices doesn’t talk to much straight to the point clearly understandable voice

[@aerofly2]

Instead of selecting the apps one by one, just use the ‘mark files’ button and mark each one you want to copy across. Then hold select on any one of those marked apps and select copy. All of the marked apps will then copy across, saving you a lot of time.👍

[@stevenh2732]

Wonderful instructions! However, I had to do two things. 1) I had to format my reformatted FAT32 USB drive again on the firestick (no problem). 2) In X-Plore settings, I had to check the box that says allow X-Plore to access USB for OTG function. This is the best and most comprehensive instruction I have seen on the topic.

Hiya T-Luv! I haven't commented in awhile but watch and 👍 every tutorial. Your timing is brilliant in that I have several FS to program for clients. Will this process only be for side-loaded apps?

[@johntate8817]

Very good information. The apk for one of my favorite apps is no longer available and this video allowed me to install it on my new Firestick. Thanks

[@decosse01]

One extra consideration for Kodi users, which is typically the most involved set-up if having to start with a fresh Stick - back up your Kodi configuration using the Kodi Backup Add-on in your primary stick and also copy that to your drive; then when initiating Kodi on the new stick, just install the Backup Add-on first, then restore the saved configuration.

[@decosse01]

Just a quick edit of my post with a better method for Kodi- I did this yesterday and even easier, rather than the Backup Addon described above; and within the scope of your excellent video, while you are already in X-plore, is just to copy the .kodi file; then after installing the kodi apk in your new stick, just overwrite the .kodi file with your saved one - that gave me an exact clone with all my add-ons, custom skin settings and Trakt and Debrid authorizations already complete.

[@carlreddevil7135]

[@steveowlhollamac8065]

Great question

[@apuk79]

This is a bit of a random question but if you have a USB stick connected to a fire stick by otg cable if you get a new fire stick can you just connect that USB stick to it and it will be recognised and worked or you have to format it and start again

[@FireTVSticks]

If it is used for additional storage ONLY and NOT system storage (for installing more apps) then yes, you can plug it into a new Firestick. If it is partitioned as system storage, a new Firestick will not recognise it and you will have to start again. Thank you for watching 😊👍❤️

[@gordhenry1684]

Great video. If you did it with KODI would it also transfer the add-ons that I have installed in KODI?

[@FireTVSticks]

No, not using this method. This method would wipe all Kodi data. Do you have a PC or laptop? There is a way you can back up your Kodi build and install it on other devices. Thank you for watching 😊👍❤️

[@JG-ql9hg]

Thanks for this video. I was able to copy everything except the Diggz build that's installed on my fire stick. Any solutions ?

[@FireTVSticks]

You need to back it up using a program such as ADB Link on your PC. There may be other ways to back up Kodi. Have you tried Google? Diggz is no longer available to install from a repo; his builds have been removed. That could be an issue if you try to install it again.

[@ticordejn-noel5269]

Did I miss the part about unseating the flash drive before we remove it from the OTG connector or if I do it without unseeting it Will it corrupt the flash drive?

[@FireTVSticks]

Just power down and remove the USB if you're worried.
