You been gone so long you forgot how to read? Read the fucking thread.
 
glad i click on this thread, i was about to buy a used xbox to stream movie apps for the tv in my game room. all the best buys here have fire sticks available so im going in when they open.:dance::dance:
There are at least 5 other threads with comments within the past 30 days which talk about how Kodi(XBMC) can be put on a Fire Stick. Outside of that, there are at least 10 other threads that talk about Kodi(XBMC). Seems like the topic comes up at least once a month. I'm not knocking you for missing any of the other threads, I'm just saying that there is already a lot of Kodi(XBMC) info on the board.
 
The shit sucks. It never works in my daughters room. Netflix can't connect ever. It's too far away from the modem to pick up a signal. I fucking hate it. I ended up just getting another cable box.:angry:

you need a better router with longer reach fam, the shit works flawless for me and live in a duplex with the router upstairs, i have a asus router

Either invest in a better router (the Fire Stick is dual Wi-Fi band) or just get a Matricom G-Box (MX2 or Q version). You can probably pick up a used or refurbed MX2 for not much more than a brand new Fire Stick. Both versions of the G-Box will have better Wi-Fi reception than the Fire Stick.

I'm looking at the G Box. This key doing anything not already described in the thread?
 
Yea that's what's been killing me is those damn amazon accounts. Luckily i have a shit load of dummy emails accounts I've been using but I'm running out.
U don't need to keep using new emails.. Just use your own email.. Install firestarter and make the home button on the remote take you to kodi.. Then deregister your account and now u don't need a amazon account to access kodi.. Just click the home button and it takes u straight to kodi without registering a email.. Its all on YouTube.. Thank me later

And this bypasses the register screen with this single double click stuff
 
I love my Fire TV Sticks and Box!!

it's so easy to get Kodi on them.

Get ADBFire

go to the kodi.tv page, download the lasted Android version the on that says "APK Install: ARM"

open ADBFire, connect to your FireStick......click install APK, then choose the Kodi.apk you just downloaded.

once it's done go to Setting>Applications>Manage Installed Apps>Kodi>Launch App

once Kodi is up and running.....go to the System tab, the in the bottom options choose "File Manager".....click add source, type in this address http://spartanpixel.net/repo hit ok/add.....then get out off there.

click on SYSTEM>Add-Ons>install from zip......then go to Repo you should see something like "wizardROM", choose it......once you see the little tab pop up that tells you WizardROM has been enabled, get out to the main menu in Kodi....go to the PROGRAMS tab....find the WizardROM......once you're in it you should see The Beast and Spartan..... you'll want to install The Beast. once it's done installing it will prompt you to restart Kodi, do it.....then let everything update, it will do so automatically.

once that's done you're free to explore all your new entertainment options.

see, simple and easy;):cool:

don't be a sucka and pay someone to do something that will literally take you 15 minutes on your first try.....less than 10 once you get the hang of it.


preciate this. this was the easy part. hard part it took a couple of of hours to get my stick to connect with the pc to install it. come to find out my router has a 2.4 and a 5g channel. it wouldnt connect at all on 2.4, but that was the only troubleshooting i had to research

This right here is what Iv'e been doing as well. Works flawlessly.

Don't buy the key. Get everything online (for free). Youtube is your friend! All the key is a collection of repos and addons saved to a usb drive. With the way things change, it could be useless (or at least less useful) a few weeks after you buy it.
 
I know this is dumb but I can't find it, this is my first hearing about this. Can somebody just give a quick overview what does this do? Is it a bunch of free movies?

idk if this is the most accurate description but kodi is a program that acts like a search engine for streaming content when you add the right add-ons (eg. genesis...primewire...icefilms etc. these are the top 3 tho imo)

so when you use one of the add-ons and perform a search for a movie/TV show it will provide you w/ a list of streaming links for w/e you're looking for that you can click on and watch

it saves you the hassle most times of having to download a link or a torrent...imo real easy to use if you're just hoping to watch movies/TV shows but a little bit more complicated for watching live TV/sports

cool...I took out the part about music...cuz I've never used it for music and I'm not sure if the add-ons I mentioned even allow you to search for it
 
LSN, it's not a search engine. Think of it like an operating system similar to Windows. Then you put add-ons (software) to access the streams and whatever else.

The base Kodi install can do nothing else until you add repo's, add-ons or your own links to your downloads on an external drive or your pc.
 
Ok so i got another one and put THE BEAST on it.

If i can't figure out how to resize the display to fit my tv in the next few minutes THE BEAST getting put back in its cage

It's in the settings-appearance, he always sets it to -4%
Just put that to 0%

If that don't work then go down to System in settings. There's a Video screen size there
 
I clicked on settings and there's no option for appearance.

I tried 1 channel and it froze my fire stick.

I tried to watch a movie, froze the fire stick.

It's very clean and very pretty but I'll stick to what i know. This shit ain't working for me and I've done this before. Tvaddons it is

Maybe it got corrupted during install?
Also what version of Kodi are you running. It's supposed to run on 14.2, I have mine on 15.2 but has some issues. But that is on Raspberry Pi. If you're running 16, then will have issues.
 
Nah I'm still using 15.1 which is the most stable kodi build out now. They have candidates for 15.2 release and a buggy 16.0 ALPHA version out but i only want the stable ones.

If this were my personal fire stick I'd keep fuckin with it because the shit looks so fuckin clean.

But since I'm selling this in not about to run the risk of this messing up and having to do refunds or hear them bitching and moaning about it not working right

What's mutts nutts and channel pear


Channel Pear is similar to IPTV Stalker & Dexter TV
I use Channel Pear for watching live TV (especially for NFL Network & ESPN)
It has the best NFL Network feed, 1080p High Def

The Mutts Nutts is similar to Genesis
It has just movies though
I like how they organize it

You want LIVE TV there are apps for that. Me personally I'm a 'on demand' type person when it comes to movies tv shows etc. The ppv they stream fairly wellalso
