  • UNIVERSAL REMOTE OPTIONS:
    SofaBaton X1: amzn.to/3N5UkCn
    Logitech Harmony: amzn.to/3OQKpCZ
    Those are ones that I've used and like. There are cheaper options. Any universal remote will work for most functions. I would try the remote you currently have first. Might do the trick.

    I have a Philips tv and a fire stick connected. 2 days ago I'd lost my fire stick remote and haven't been able to watch anything on my tv. I do have a AT&T Universal remote, can I use that to program and watch shows and movies from my fire stick on my tv? If yes, what do I do to get it to work?

    • @CuriosityCafe
      @CuriosityCafe  Před 3 měsíci

      So two things make sure the firestick Jj is in the ARC port. Then it will work. Or go into settings on the firestick and sync the universal remote. If you are asking how to do that without an active remote. It’s called the fire tv app. It’s free, in your phone App Store and controls the firestick. You should be familiar with it after our videos on the app

      Gary, we need to see what you are doing wrong cause I have 8 firesticks, 3 cubes and 2 fire tvs and not one single remote went bad. I think we need to see how you are using your stick. Are you putting the stick to sleep every dat? Regularly restarting it? Cause if you don't it will kill the batteries and your stick will lock up. Reach out on patreon if you need help. Remotes don't go bad my friend.

  • @Erujj
    @Erujj Před rokem

    Most universal TV remotes dont work fully with firestick, IMO.
    You can navigate and press enter etc and do most tasks on the fire tv using TV remote but to install apps, show info, eg, where the hamburgur button on the fire TV remote is needed I have had no luck. Also, the home button of the TV remote will bring the TV smart OS home menu instead of the fire TV.
    Finally the voice button on my samsung TV remote always launches Samsung assistant and not Alexa on fire TV!
    If someone has had any luck completely replacing this. Please let me know!!!

    • @CuriosityCafe
      @CuriosityCafe  Před rokem +1

      You make a good point. That's why I provided links to ones that are fully functional with the firestick. If your universal remote is fully programmable, you can do every function. My Sony tv remote does everything except the voice function. This will be a common situation unless you get the sofabaton remotes
