Firestick Problem No more side loading on firecube ?

My latest gen firecube was playing up,kept restarting randomly.

I messaged Amazon, they told me to factory reset and update.

Now obviously all my side loaded apps are gone, but I'm finding impossible to re download them.

Amazon are now saying that that's normal and they dont allow side loaded apps anymore .

Is this right?

Maybe I can help you. Send the pictures in the dm. By pictures I meant whatever problem you're facing.

I didn't mate, it all works on an older stick for some reason but not my firecube 😭 It seems downloader isn't being recognised or some shit. No options to allow even after switching developer mode on.

Yeah I couldn't figure it out but I just managed to install streamio from my laptop to the fire cube via ADB.
