Mine fell in water and not working. When I saw how expensive it was, almost like buying a new one, I downloaded the app in my phone and it solved it.

I had a remote mot get used for awhile and the batteries leaked inside and destroyed it. At the time it wasn't much more money to buy an entirely new firestick, so I did.

[@CuriosityCafe]

Yeah, in your case I would also. They are on sale for 50% off right now in fact. Cheaper than a new remote

[@ALDAPRESIDENT504]

Awesome!

[@ssnydess6787]

I went through a little different problem with my remote. Evidently, the software failed in updating my remote and after the update had completed, I could only turn my firestick on and off with the remote. When I tried to re-pair the remote with the firestick, I got an alternating red and green light on the remote. I re-paired the remote/firestick several times, then finally got a message that the remote was being updated and not to touch any controls. After that update, it worked fine.

[@CuriosityCafe]

Yep, that sounds about right. Update interruptions can be disastrous. Glad you got it working

[@kicks2fast]

What is the best IPTV service to watch NFL Sunday on my firestick? I would love your input.

[@CuriosityCafe]

We aren’t allowed to post this on youtube as you are probably aware. So we have it posted on Patreon with free subscriptions for members given away regularly. You aren’t on there?

Yes that’s correct

Hi my remote wont do anything i even switch battey what do you recommend? Thank you I appreciate it.

[@CuriosityCafe]

Connect to the fire tv app and put the stick and remote in pairing mode. We have videos on how to do this

[@akimb]

I have to reconnect my RCA TV about every 2 days, to control the TV. It just will not stay synced or connected. works fine with the regular Firestick controls. Any suggestions ?

[@CuriosityCafe]

Something strange with the tv

[@what4228]

Thank you once again MR.C, I got a question for, I brought a fire TV recently and noticed it didn't have the developer option which means I can't side load 3rd party apps, is this true or is it another way to do it, help me lol

[@RRGUNNA69]

Good Evening.. I put new batteries, held the Home button a few times, unhooked the power cord, and nothing seems to work other than using my phone through the app as a remote. I've had this Fire stick for about a 18 months but i really would like to use my remote.. Is it possibly time for a new remote?

[@CuriosityCafe]

It’s rare, but possible that remote just died. If I were you I would upgrade to one of the air mouse ones we’ve reviewed on here. The W3 is my favorite. We even share how to hook it up and a discount code for the adapter and remote.

[@RRGUNNA69]

[@CuriosityCafe]

Ok, have tried different US servers? Some will unlock restrictions. You can also use 3rd party apps like cinemaHD to get the shows. We can help on Patreon if you want

[@patswift3070]

What is Patreon and do I need the app?

[@CuriosityCafe]

I occasionally get remote update just a pop up after the fire stick has been off for awhile I don't know what it does it just takes a few seconds..... :)

Yes, very common. Usually very minor updates

I have a issues with my fire stick it says no internet connection and my remote control quit working to was wondering if you might no how I can get it to start working again.

[@CuriosityCafe]

I would start by using the fire tv app and forgetting your network and reconnecting. Then you can sync your remote and use it again. Shouldn’t be a hard process

[@earneststanaford7802]

Sliding off battery case cover where out and you need to buy a cover for the fire stick

[@CuriosityCafe]

Or just get the remote cover that I shared the link to in the video

[@karlastokley1399]

Hi I am having trouble with my remote but it has something else going on. I have tried all of your video fixes 2 or 3 times and here's what it is doing. So here's what it does: It stops working and I tried changing batteries and it works until you shut the tv off. I tried all your fix and some twice each time it worked as the above and always have to put new batteries in each time. I tried resetting from the defaults. So is my remote toast? I am thinking the new batteries work every time until you shut the tv off because the remote is doing something to them. Ever heard of this? Thanks for your help.

[@CuriosityCafe]

If your firestick plugged into the usb on the tv? Or the power outlet with the plug?

[@CuriosityCafe]

Are you saying your tv is frozen, or your remote stopped working? This is a remote fix video. Did you unplug the tv for 60 seconds and plug it back in? Or if you have a firestick (not a tv edition), did you unplug the firestick from power for 60 seconds? We have a whole tutorial on a frozen stick. Not this video.

[@jeremyruh5219]

@Curiosity Cafe I'll check it out. I turn the fire tv on, and the home icon is where it's stuck. It will not move off of the home icon. I can't get to settings to change what I need to so my phone becomes the remote

[@CuriosityCafe]

Yeah, wrong video. Unplug your tv for 60 seconds. Will reset itself

Not sure, All mine work. Have fixed over 200 fireticks for people. Most issues are either not holding the right buttons correctly or not holding long enough. If you call amazon, they will tell you the same thing, I can't do too much from here, but if you are a patreon member, you can send it to me to fix for you.

Why does my remote show a RED flashing light not green. And it still doesn't work correctly. For example I'll click on the KZbin app and the YT screen will appear. However that is the extent of it. Once the screen pops up it will not let me click on any of the videos. I am stuck on the YT home screen. What is going on, HELP!!! PS: I'm a new subscriber :)

Flashing red means it's not properly connected. I would Un connect and reconnect using the method in our videos. Easy fix with the remote codes (watch that video)
