i just got the amazon fire stick…plugged it into the tv and it still won’t come on…what am i doing wrong?…someone said you have to let it charge..if that is so how long
The mini usb connection port on the first generation fire stick are actually at a slight angle. It’s a manufacturer defect. Unfortunately, I’m not sure they honor such a thing. Second, if it’s got a bunch of sideloaded 3rd party content on it. I dont know if that hurts the situation any. But I did know this had happened to a lot of people! myself included. If your patience and solder game is where mine is. Looks like you’ll most likely have to get a replacement unfortunately. Careful putting the mini-usb end into and out of the new device itself, not to fast, very slow and gentle, is that what she said…? Nah! Lol best of luck…
I have a fire stick and it needs to be plugged into power to work properly. I agree with previous answer the HDMI cable or connection could be a problem. You have to have the tv on the correct source. I have 4 and sometimes it will get set to the wrong source. Check the battery in remote.
amazon fire stick no power
Firestick was frozen, just a white screen that said firestick. Fixed problem by unplugging firestick power cord from the wall, turning it 180 degrees and plugged it back in. I dont know why or how this worked but it did.
You do not charge an amazon fire stick lol u just plug it in to wall and leave it plugged in always
Same thing happened to me. I had to keep unplugging and replugging the power source until finally it connected. The FireTV logo came up on the screen.
