Stop buying Firesticks. Amazon is disabling side loaded apps.

[Lexx Diamond]

I got a message last night that my LiveNetTV & UKTURKS was disabled. I had all permissions for data collection off. I also had the option to install unknown apps enabled. Even after restoring it to factory defaults I was unable to reinstall the very apps that made me buy a Firestick. That stick is now in a package with a return label. Amazon can eat a bag of dicks. I bought an android box to replace that ratchet Firestick.

No, sideloading and app blocking aren’t affected by these Fire TV Settings, despite claims

Amazon blacklisted and disabled several sideloaded piracy apps this week, seemingly due to the presence of malicious elements. In almost every discussion I've come across about the topic, there's inevitably someone offering bad advice about turning off certain Fire TV settings to prevent apps...

Is this only on Firesticks or will they prevent sideloading on tablets as well?

 

[bbuzzard]

On the FireTV, it alerts you and gives you an option to keep the flagged app

 

[Duece]

See Tumblr.

It's not to late to turn back.

Tumblr removed adult content, and it hurt them and they never recovered.

Amazon ain't tumblr but Wal-Mart did spark a buzz with their cheaper Onn products.

One of my boys just got a fire stick… I never used one but he made me think of utilizing one of the older model tvs I have in my crib for nfl season

You're late, Tumblr is recovering now and the adult content is back. People are signing up in droves, get with the new info.

Point still stands, I wouldn't be late if Tumblr hadn't taken away adult content and damaged it's brand.

And nudity is back, not straight up adult content.

 

[jawnswoop]

Yet, there's a dumb ass on IG selling fire sticks with premium apps on it..

Nah, Tumblr will never be what it used to be because back then you saw women doing a lot of nasty freaky shit..

Tumblr only allow nudity from models and photographers but if you try to post anything that's not professional nudity is when they take it down.

 

[jawnswoop]

I used android boxes and never had any problems with putting premium apps on it that they never got taken down.

 

[Drayonis]

I use Google tv

Exactly

the same type of material that BGOL members will complain about being boring and the models having no ass.,

Firesticks are having those type of issues which has nothing to do with other brands.

Especially the ones who don't post shit that complain the most.

Post proof that's it's coming back with some freaky shit that's amateur. I'll wait.

 

[Stix-N-Stonz]

Damn. Guess I can chunk all those sticks in my junk drawer. Glad I switched to an Nvidia Shield last summer.

Is your internet broke? Just go to Tumblr. You got dial-up?

Same thing happened to me and I opted to keep the app. All is well w/ my Firestick........for now.

Yup, that's what people better start doing, because them firesticks are useless.

I said Tumblr isn't allowing explicit porn, yet you want to argue with us talking about a come back when it's not the case at all. Just accept the fact tumblr isn't coming back to be what it used to be.

Ditch the firestick while you have time to do so and get you a android box or Nvidia shield.
