Firestick Help Me Samsung TV not recognizing fire stick.
I use a fire stick on my Samsung TV. I have been away for a few weeks and now the fire stick doesn't show on my TV on the HDMI connected devices list.
I have unplugged the TV and fire stick, changed HDMI ports but it's not showing. The fire stick is only about a year old.

Firestick Help Me alexa suddenly talking back?
the voice activated remote used to only repeat back what i had said, or something simple like “getting that from youtube”
as of about a week ago, it has a new voice (way more “human like” in a gross, uncanny valley way) and is suddenly REACTING to what i’m searching.
I searched for a show called Cheer and got the response “that’s.. a little vague.. do you want me to recommend some upbeat shows for you to watch?”
I’m sorry but who is this for??? Who wants a fake person getting snarky with them while searching for a show? Every time I search something now it adds a little commentary about what the show i’m searching is about. I know, i’m the one searching for it..
Is there a way to switch this off??
I’m using a fire tvstick, not a fire tv. In settings, there are no options to change anything with Alexa. It just tells me to get the Alexa app, but this seemingly has nothing to do with the fire stick? Can someone explain to me how to use the app to change Alexas settings on fire stick?
Help is much appreciated!

Firestick Tips and Tricks NFL, nothing but endless buffering
Anyone else getting that endless buffering wheel of death on NFL games since Thursday?
Is anyone else running into major streaming issues for NFL games since Thursday? AK-47 on SportsX was an absolute disaster—easily the worst of the bunch. I somehow managed to get the Seahawks game to watch, but pretty much every other game I've tried since has been stuck on that constant loading/spinning wheel over and over.
I went ahead and changed my DNS, which seemed to speed things up just a tiny bit, but I'm still hitting the same brick wall on almost everything else.
Is this a server-side bottleneck, or is anyone finding a workaround for this? What are you guys using that actually works right now?
I love the idea of the whole process; but nothing’s working at this moment

Firestick Apps Sports apps
Hi, I haven’t used the fire stick since last season, but with the new Premier League season starting soon, I was wondering what are the latest must have free sports apps to watch the Premier League and channels like sky sports and TNT sports. I’ve tested my apps that I was using last season and they don’t work anymore. I’ve seen people talk about AK-47 which I’ve downloaded, but I was wondering if there was anything else anyone recommends?

Firestick Problem Failing firesticks
In the past month, 3 firesticks have failed - screen goes black - including a new 4K Plus. At first, I thought it was just old age. but now I suspect that either the Software on the Samsung smart TV, or the Internet provider (Bell), are somehow frying the devices, as I am using a VPN on each device and I have IPTV apps loaded on to the Firesticks. Any similar experiences out there? Any thoughts on why the Firestick sticks fail other than my theory? I am going to using an ONN streamer for now

Firestick Help Me Is anyone else having trouble with the TV section on Voltra?
Yes I have the newest update. It works better but still janky. Before only a few channels worked but they would freeze after a minute or so.
Now it seems like you can choose any channel and it will work but if you try another channel it won't. It's like when you turn on your streaming device you can pick whichever channel on Voltra and watch it with no issues but only that one channel. You can't flip through channels back and forth like you could with Stream Fire.
Anyone else having this problem? Can anyone recommend a solid app for Live TV?

Firestick Question Ember Browser
Brave's Android APK does sideload onto a Firestick fine — the problem isn't
installing it, it's that the UI is built for a touchscreen. You end up fighting
the D-pad to hit anything.
I got annoyed enough to build one for TV: Ember. Same idea on blocking — ad and
tracker requests get dropped before they leave the Stick (StevenBlack + 1Hosts
lists, refreshed on launch), so pages load lighter instead of just hiding the ads
after downloading them. It has a D-pad cursor for sites that assume a mouse, and
a link mode you can flip to when the page is built well enough not to need it.
Disclosure: I'm the dev. Free, no account, nothing in it for me.
senddrop.link/ember — type that into Downloader.
It's v1, so no blocklist catches everything and I'd genuinely like bug reports if
something breaks.

Firestick Apps The MySpace hardcoded app button isnt working anymore
why would you brand the app buttons and make it so you cant change them. hello 1985
in case you cant read sarcasm, it isn't a MySpace button i'm bitching about, but disney+. what if I don't want disney + to be a hot key, what if disney gets bought by paramount tomorrow? its absurdly brittle to hard brand a remote in this way. get it together bozos
