So glad for people like you too rescue that little guy.

This did not solve my problem, but it did make me laugh. It reminded me of the old commercial about asking Mr. Owl how many licks to the center of a tootsie roll pop. He licked 3 times, gave up and bit it and declared the answer to be 3.

I've been looking all over for a way to fix the USB port on my fire stick that was warped due to overheating. This didn't help but it did make me laugh. Thanx :)

Thanks! I am sure if you had the skills you could solder the micro USB connector back on but as you say they are cheap so it's not really worth the effort. Still it was fun to take to bits! But why is it full of putty?!

Thanks ummm I got really mad and I yanked out my firestick and I bent the front part it still works but the remote keeps on making a buzzing noise if I put it up to my ear

Hi. That sounds annoying. Will the device reset? You can reset from the remote. Press and hold the Select and Play/Pause buttons at the same time, for about five seconds. If you get no luck with that have a look at this link which details some possible solutions. www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=202154650

Susie Bruce did you get it working? Sometimes it's the power source. If you use the USB in the TV it might not be enough current to keep the stick on. Try using the wall plug

Playback speed x2. Still wasted 1 minute and 45 secs of my life.

I want to change my fire stick body can you help me

It may have worked good when someone tossed it. They may have got a better and faster Android telly box and just tossed it beside the road.

Possibly, although it still had some of the (smashed) packaging with it. The remote still had the shrink wrap round it!

The answer is yes just squash the USB port back into shape.

I know this is 6 years ago yes it could have been fixed far right two dots first one 5 volt positive on the port far left is ground

Ben heck could

Very true. I sadly do not have the soldering skills for that. I am sure it would have been the work of but a moment for many, but not for me.

Get a new port and solder it on.

I currently don't have the soldering skills for that I really should get into it though. The idea of playing around with molten metal is appealing.
