UNIVERSAL REMOTE OPTIONS:
SofaBaton X1:
Logitech Harmony:
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.

The team at Kodi Fire IPTV strongly suggests that you use a VPN at all times.
Be it for browsing, watching Kodi, watching IPTV or anything else – the one that we recommend is Hidden Router. They provide you with very fast speeds, that can reach over 400Mbps, and their VPN service is as low as $6 per month (when paid for 2 years)!
Grab your own Hidden Router and regain your online privacy now!
At $190 and $260, the 2universal remotes you suggested are probably way out of reach of most people here.
What if I can't find my fire stick remote. How do i get to the home screen without it .
I was just using a video game controller
I have a Logitech Harmony Hub something or other remote that I've been using for years. Keeping my actual Fire TV stick remote around just as a backup.
FireTV?
can you do the same thing on a roku tv??
Thank you that was good looking out
I wished you had quickly shown which buttons are used on the TV remote for FireTV functions.
GREAT tip, and very helpful info!
My greatest issue is with re-programming the dedicated buttons to access other services. I really appreciate your hacks but my preferences are different and it's frustrating to think I could switch 'Disney+' to 'YouBoob' if I were just a little smarter.
Wow thank you bro
Unfortunately doesn’t work for me. Using Oneforall Evolve 2 universal remote. Or using my original LG Remote.
Get apple TV, no more issues with any remotes.
One Question.
If your Firestick Remote is broke, how are you supposed to access settings to alter, so you can use a Universal remote?
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!!!
Can it be any fire stick? Lite?
Very good! I found my remote on Temu.
I must have been distracted and wondered what the hell was going on when the Fire stick menu came on the screen. Thought I'd bumped a button on the remote, but the video was still playing…
I connected my Firestick to my Alexa app, as soon as I got it. Then control my what I want to see, Firestick through my Echo Dot speaker. Didn't need anyone to explain it to me, it's simple enough lol
Ok.. Now here is the Big Question.. So how do you get to the settings if the universal remote is not programmed to the firestick?
What about using the 3 dashes with samsung tv remote
Thank you!!! You really r a terrific help the best on u tube for clarity and content! Will universal remote replace cable box remote as well?
I have 2 FS4K's and each have gone through 4, yes 4 remotes!!!!
And, I know there's the app, but I like using my phone while watching yourube.
However, my current remote no longer controls Volume and the Homw button only works on a long press for quick menu. And, it won't let me unpaired 2 app remotes.
Amazing . Thanks as I have lost my firestick.
Thank you so much. I just found your channel. Do you have a video explaining how I can play my dvd player now that I have a firestick installed? Since installing a firestick I can't get the dvd player to work and cannot figure out the problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
After watching your videos I've now got the 4kmax with the mission power USB.i also have a Samsung one controller that also works with it.
How do you change settings if you don’t have remote in the first place?
Good deal!
Do the stick have to be plugged in the CEC HDMI port in the back of the TV?
T.Y. I'll have to give this a try, because, we all know that some day…the Firestick will stop working! lol
I can't get to the settings to do what your talking about. I lost my re.ote and can only power it up on the bottom corner. Insignia. It says it cannot find my device and to be sure they are connected to the same network. They are. Am I gonna have to buy another remote?! I have a headache. Hope this made sense. Thanks for any help.😢😮
I have 2 firesticks n both r not doing anything
What do you do if your remote stops working? Get a book and read for a few hours.
