I was updating all my six firesticks with new apks recommended from Troypoint, when one of them said something like "wait until we condense or check… " It stuck there for over an hour. Re-powered, and it’s stuck on the Fire TV logo, 3 dots scrolling at bottom. Tried everything found online, unplugged, different power cord/transformer, remote. . nothing. Contacted Amazon support they gave similar fixes, none worked. Finally said, “nothing we can do, out of warranty, we’ll give you 20% off next Fire TV device.”
Any one have any ideas how to resolve this and use this fire stick. I don’t think it’s a 4k, but a newer generation. Hate to toss it. Luckily just bought a 4k, and have Onn as spare.

Sorry i havent used a firestick in a while. Not familiar with the issue.

Personally i wouldn’t stay with Amazon devices. They are getting more and more restrictive.

The Onn 4k ($20) is a good replacement but the Onn 4k Pro ($50) is even better and recommended by many here. I have 2 and no complaints.

Good luck, hopefully someone here can help you salvage the device. No need to throw it out if it still has miles left on it.

By the way. This has nothing to do with the Diggz Burst build. You may want to ask your question in a firestick thread. Copy and paste your issue if you find one applicable.

@Miki may move it for you if you cant find one. But it may be past his bedtime tonight… :grin::sleeping:

I read this on The Mirror newspaper Uk. Will post pics as not sure if link allowed. Thought was interesting read.

So, they’re paying this guy to tell them what we already know.

Is there any easy way to to clone a firestick4k with all aps and settings?

No. there isn’t.
