Hey!

I can't for the love of god be able to pair my Amazon FireTV Remote, Shield TV does not want to detect it while my macbook detects the remote without any problem.

I hold the "Home button" on the FireTV remote to put it in pairing mode, my macbook detects the fire remote without any problem and the shield never shows it while looking for bluetooth devices...

I tested my bluetooth speaker to see if shield's bluetooth was working and it detected the speaker without any problem, I don't understand why it never "sees" the firetv remote.. any ideias? plz halp!
[Shield Android TV Accessories] AndroidDuke17:
Hello,

which Version do you like to pair? The Amazon Fire TV 1 or 2 remote? I have a Fire TV 2 Box and i was able to pair the remote with the Shield. The Version 2 is not bluetooth! You have to pair it as original Stuff.

Greetings
[Shield Android TV Accessories] shaun.s:
Can you use the Amazon Fire TV remote off/on button to turn off or make the Shield sleep?
[Shield Android TV Accessories] AndroidDuke17:
Turn on does work with every key. But turn off you have to use the shutdown menu. But at this time i use a Logitech Remote + Hub + Flirc.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] BRICK0044:
What do you mean by pair it as original stuff? I have a fire tv voice remote 2nd generation and can't seem to pair it with the shield.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] mrwookie6379:
I believe he (or she) means you need to pair it as a Shield accessory rather than as a bluetooth accessory.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] AndroidDuke17:
Absolutely right. The remote 2nd generation is not a bluetooth. You have to pair it as original remote in the menu.

Regards
[Shield Android TV Accessories] efegue:
I have the first generation, it's bluetooth, but the shield doesn't detect it.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] I_did_it_just_tmrrow:
I had the same Problem. I own a Amazon Fire TV gen1 bluetooth voice remote and I can not connect it with my nvidia shield tv pro.

I hope this is not caused by the firmware update version 352.

Any hint out there? I can not find the ES File Explorer too.

Greetings by Idijt
[Shield Android TV Accessories] cébé:
I didn't have to do any pairing to make it works.

But for few days, voice research doesn't works anymore.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] Wishmaster2:
Which on/off button?

The Fire TV remote does not have such a button.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] Neo3D:
I have the Amazon Fire TV Gen 1 voice remote too and cannot pair it to my Nvidia Shield TV? It can't see it even though I've tried both ways to put the remote into discovery mode:

1) Hold HOME button for 5-10 seconds

2) Take batteries out and put them back in

I like this remote better because it has all the buttons I actually need to use. I think someone at Nvidia tried to make their remote too simple that it hurt its basic functionality.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] Ichijoe:
Assuming the v1. Voice is anything like the v2 Voice...

You'll need to give it more like 20s! This is also true for the FireTV2 itself. 10s, just isnt nearly long enough.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] snoopy7804:
i have the shield tv (2017) and the firetv4k remote

when trying to pair as shiel accessorie i press the home button for abt 10-20 sec and then i see that the shield moves to the next step of pairing...however after some waiting time it fails and gives a failure message

any idea what else i could try?
[Shield Android TV Accessories] shaunydub:
I have same issue, it shows Shield controller but then stops process
[Shield Android TV Accessories] fqr:
after the upgrade to nougat i had the same problem... pairing the amazon remote took forever and ended in a failure notice. try to pair the game controller first and than the fire tv remote. after pairing the game controler and orignal shield remote the amazon remote paired just fine.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] n4r30s:
Anyone found a solution? None of those solution works, amazon fire voice remote worked with my old tv shield, but it won't pair with 2017 model.

It dose show a picture of old shield tv game controller, after a while say faild.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] I_did_it_just_tmrrow:
Is it possible that this is a Android 7 Nougat bug with bluetooth? I found something similar with a short google query.

At common:

Perhaps there is a chance to use adb or another script to add bluetooth firetv remotes.

I found some adb cpommands but missed the importand ones: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41594707/adb-shell-bluetooth-commands

This is looking nice too and seems to have some code on github: http://www.londatiga.net/it/program...ally-pair-or-unpair-android-bluetooth-device/

We shoukd be able to find out the mac of the remote on a working FireTV-Device with adb enabled.

I am currently not at home to try it it out, can somebody try it?

I have 2nd generation fire tv remote, it was working great with shield tv pro old model, but after getting new model of shield tv pro (2017), it won't pair. When I try to pair it, it shows game controller (old model) picture and then goes away and can't complete the pairing.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] cutefuzzybunny:
2nd gen fire tv box remote won't pair with 2015 model shield. Tried as a shield accessory. See's it and zooms in on the pic of the controller, but fails pairing after a few minutes. This is with the new atv 6.0 update just released this morning.

Bummer. I was hoping for a remote that didn't keep unpairing and had a usable number of buttons.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] efegue:
The mic on my firetv 2nd gen remote never worked. Do you got it working in 6.0 update?
[Shield Android TV Accessories] dragomanjk:
I have the 16GB Shield 2017 and the 2nd gen fire stick remote (with mic). I attempted the pairing, held the select button on the remote and it zoomed into the controller also. It sat there for a long time so I hit the mic button on the fire remote - it worked :highfive:. I told Assistant to turn on my lights - worked. I had to hit the back button before I could use the mic again, but it worked again. After 4 or so voice commands the Shield went back to the home screen and the fire stick did not work anymore :crying:. I tried connecting the remote again using the same process but it would not connect again. I restarted the shield and it would find the remote again but not stay paired.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] bubbablacksmith:
I bought an Alexa voice remote off ebay to try with my Shield (2015 model), running the latest 7.0 update. The model number of the remote says DR49WK B.

Initially I tried to set it up as a Shield accessory and it wouldn't work. It did zoom into the controller once but then eventually popped up saying failed to pair.

I then tried to just set it up as a bluetooth accessory. That didn't work at least the first few times. However it eventually did! Although despite it working, it does not show up as a bluetooth accessory or an nvidia shield accessory.

All the buttons seem to work with the Shield UI. Even the voice button worked along with the mic.

Once or twice I did notice the remote seemed to stop responding (lost connection maybe?). Taking out a battery and putting it back in instantly restored the functionality.

Also in the Amazon Video app, the app does not respond to the 'Select/OK' button on the remote at all. Luckily most apps do respond to it properly though.

After a while I found that while the Google assistant would pop up when I hit the voice button, it stopped hearing my voice.

I have since tried to pair it again via the original method (Nvidia shield accessory). It again zoomed into the controller and had the 3 green dots. It failed again and the remote was completely non-responsive (I obviously unpaired it by putting it into pairing mode).

I tried once more and this time it repeated the same process (thinking it was a controller), but before I let it complete the set up, I tried some of the buttons on the remote and they responded.

The voice button and mic even worked immediately after. However 5 minutes later the mic had stopped working :crying:

One person on another forum suggested to turn on the 'stay awake' option in the developer settings to stop a device from disconnecting. I am not sure if it's an actual fix or a coincidence, but since turning it on, I have not had the remote disconnect on me again.

Now if I could just get the mic to work again!

Edit: Interestingly, restarting the shield fixes the mic on the Fire TV remote. It's likely temporary, but it does work. Hmm. Gotta figure out what is disabling it afterwards.

[MENTION=2891731]efegue[/MENTION]

my amazon remote 2gen is working again since last update . with the ok-google feature.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] bubbablacksmith:
My mic is now working again and it does not seem to be disabling itself like it was yesterday. Weird.

Not sure if this effected it or not, but I downloaded an app called button mapper. After enabling it and playing with it a bit (remapped the FF and RW buttons to volume UP and volume DOWN), I noticed the mic was working again and has worked ever since.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] orificium:
I had a 2nd gen Fire TV for awhile and prior to several updates (I imagine) I purchased an nVidia Shield TV (cause yeah, better). I got it during that sale on Amazon when it came with two gamepads (no remote, 2015 version). Eventually I realized I preferred a more compact remote. That's when I decided to try using my 2nd gen fire tv remote which connected and worked to my surprised. Even the voice features well and especially well in SPMC (kodi fork).

So I lost my original fire TV remote (don't know how that happened, the gods hate me I suppose). So I bought a fire tv stick during the recent sales (since the remote by itself wasn't much cheaper).

I paired this new remote to my shield tv. It looks as though it's communicating. No errors. You see the three dots below the shield gamepad cycling. Then it goes back to the home screen. That usually indicates it's paired. But the fire tv remote just doesn't do anything.

My very rough guess, is that the fire sticks are shipping with a remote that has a newer firmware (than my old version) that just won't pair with an nVidia Shield TV. Sound about right? Not sure what to do really. I have no interest in the overpriced (fewer featured) Shield remote. And all the garbage android TV remotes out there chew up batteries.

What do?
[Shield Android TV Accessories] orificium:
Thanks you. Thank you. Thank you!

I don't know what I didn't think to do this, but your tip resolved my issue.

You must have at least one Shield Accessory paired before the 2nd gen Fire remote will pair successfully. You can then disconnect your official shield accessory afterwards. I'm assuming any WiFi accessory will work but I only have the gamepads for my Shield.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] chris4beta:
Just to be clear, if anyone is thinking about buying a new FireTV remote to use with their 2017 shield... it does not work.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] orificium:
Did you try pairing a genuine Shield accessory first? That was the trick for me on my 2015.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] chris4beta:
Yep, and it was like others have described... It looked like it would pair - displayed the controller image for a few seconds, but would return to the home screen without being paired.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] bradwatson:
Is this still working for anyone? I just bought 4 of these and can't get them paired with my 2015 Shield TV.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] Splaktar:
Pairing the latest Amazon Fire TV Controller worked for me with the 2015 Shield TV. There are a couple other posts about this that were updated recently.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] Darriousx:
I wanted to give an update for future people who look this up since I had issues. I purchased the latest 2019 Fire TV Stick device and, after setting it up, I disconnected it from the Fire Stick. You have to have another remote setup on it and so I used the Fire TV Remote App on my phone. Then I could pair the actual remote.

Also, people have said it uses WiFi direct so it needs to be paired as a Shield Accessory instead of Bluetooth pairing.

Well, it only showed up as a Bluetooth device. Took like 6-8 tried but it FINALLY paired lol. Everything works great. I only wish I could remap the context menu button to voice search. There is only one Button Remapper app that seems like it costs money to unlock and remap more than the Home and Back, as well as a couple other non existent buttons, on the Fire TV remote.

Edit: Follow up! The Nvidia Shield does have an option to control soundbars over CEC, which works well for my Vizio soundbars setup. However, my biggest issue with using the Fire TV was that when I switched to anything else, like PS4 for video games, the Fire TV Remote couldn't control the sound via IR.

So, here's what you do..

1. You pair it first with the Fire TV device. Once you have the IR for your TV set up you need to unplug the power to the Fire TV.

2. Click add accessory in the Bluetooth options on your Shield TV

3. Hold your Home button on your Fire TV remote for 10seconds to change it into pairing mode and the orange led will start flashing.

4. You should be able to pair it as it will show up as AR on the Shield

5. You'll need to go into your Sound/Devices settings->Advanced Settings->Pass volume to fixed devices. This way you won't have the remote changing the software volume AND the TV volume via IR.
[Shield Android TV Accessories] brick00444:
Have you got the microphone to work consistently? I like the new fire tv remote once you pair it and set it up to control volume on soundbar. Then like you say disconnect fire tv and pair with shield. Sometimes the microphone button works for google and sometimes it just opens the bottom bar but just says listening. Do you know what causes it to work or not work?
[Shield Android TV Accessories] Darriousx:
I'm not entirely sure why it works sometimes and not others but what another user did was order a PS3 EyeCam for like $5-10 and it can be used for voice input in the Shield. I have yet to try it myself though.

Same issue I can't find stock firmware. Root was working fine for about a week but then today Google play crashed a lot on me, as well as pokemongo.

Fixed: I used the modified ODIN from Max Lee's site that I originally used to root the phone, then used the 935U firmware and it worked, 935A unrooted and running the unlocked firmware, it is better than a stock 935A, dosen't even have an ATT boot logo! Supposedly you can root from it, but for now, the stock U fw is awesome, battery life is better, no bloat is a plus, it even puts BACK the smart manager app in settings, and adds HotSpot and Cell Data toggles to the menu.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] CVertigo1:
The ENG kernel used for root is great in a sense that it has aided in giving us root access, but it is nowhere near as refined as the factory kernel. [MENTION=1599591]psouza4[/MENTION] has done a TON to make this kernel awesome, but there are a lot of people who have reverted back to stock because of the limitations.

I'm considering making an insanely debloated ROM that will hopefully run on the factory PE1 kernel. Root access would be needed to do the initial install with FlashFire, but afterwards there would be no root access. This might be what a few of you guys are looking for, a blazing fast ROM that runs forever on a charge, without getting hot. Once the ROM is flashed, there will be NO ability to modify unless the ENG kernel is flashed and rooted again. This ROM would NOT be for anyone interested in running Xposed framework in anyway.

If there is enough interest, I'll start working on something FAST!

Could you throw in a modified hosts file for ad blocking? Or, should I mod it first then unroot? Also, would bypassing the checks for tethering be an option before going back to original kernel?
