🔴AMAZON FIRE TV STICK will not BLOCK STREAMING APPS!🔴 

4k pro. I think that'll be a good move. Gonna try one myself !!

I purchased a ONN 43 in Roku 8 months ago , i could never get the anything on Roku to play, after getting help from Roku 2 times still didn't work, they told me it was a ONN problem so i got in touch with them and after trying all sots of resets or what have you it still would not work , everything else works great very clear picture, only thing that don't work is Roku so ONN sent me a email saying they were reimbursing my full price and do whatever i want with tv ,give it away or whatever, i received my check about a week later, i have a spare bedroom i'll put the tv in and bought another works fine

I'm getting one as soon as they come out here.

I don’t know Doc the Amazon firestick is reminding me of Bidenomics , they are peddling their feet, can’t make any decisions of their own and the ones they do make are bad! Im tired of playing the waiting game, thinking I’m going to get the Onn 4k pro and make America great again!! Let’s go Brandon

@@dougstein4781 CORRECT. AND, their decisions to make their devices LESS comsumer friendly (removing the ability to use ADB, etc, etc) are giving us more & MORE reasons to hate Amazon. ... IMO they no longer deserve our support. ... I too will be giving the ONN 4K PRO a try !! 👍🏻

Says who

Because (similar to the US Gov't) Amazon wants as much CONTROL over what you do (on "your" device that "you" PAID for).

They didn't purposefully block Mouse Toggle. It was an 'innocent bystander' of them blocking INTERNAL 'adb settings' ... which they blocked because it was a key to 3rd-party LAUNCHER MANAGER apps!! THAT has always been what they could not allow (as they prevent Amazon's deluge of ads from being 'seen' ... which is how they make all the money they do from paying sponsors)! TechDoctorUK's two utility apps were also unintended victims (his one-click ’Cache Cleaner' and 'App Killer' apps), as they were dependent on functioning internal ADB commands. FWI ... 'Mouse Toggle' can STILL be activated on FireOS 6 and FireOS 7 devices (but possibly not on the two new FireOS 8 sticks?), by downloading 'Remote ADB Shell' app onto your Android smartphone and submitting THREE SHORT LINES OF COMMAND CODE to the ISP address of your Fire streaming device(s)! These commands were provided in a Chris Waite RU-vid video (search for it). The only issue is that the Mouse Toggle will 'deactivate' when you need to REBOOT your device (or something causes it to do this on its own). However, this is not as problematic as you might first think. Because once you have entered those short commands of adb code on your phone's RadbShell app the first time, those commands are SAVED in the apps memory (and can be easily accessed by 'long-pressing' on the Command Line). You don't have to 're-type' them so, 'boom-boom-boom,' you paste them in and your Mouse Toggle is re-activated!! Trust me, it's easier than it probably sounds! And I'm very dependent on having Mouse Toggle available! Yes, you could buy a wireless mouse, mini-keyboard w/mouse, etc ... but that is an extra expense that shouldn't be necessary AND I find them much less convenient! So ... THIS IS THE WAY! 👍

android is built on linux kernel lol

@@DocSquiffy Now you're splitting hairs to try to look SMART. HEY GENIUS, Amazon's "current" OS is ANDROID based. Their NEXT OS will be pure LINUX based. As you know (but maybe other don't realize) once they switch to their NEW VEGA OS, there will be no sideloading. Since they've been working on it so long (& continue to work on it) they're NOT going to abandon it. It will come. & sideloading will go away on the upcoming models of firesticks. ... I admire you're double speak Doc, But in defending firestick (& your video) for such a SMART GUY, youre sounding kinda DUMB right now. You're arguing the inevitable. They're gonna become just like the Apple, ROKU, tivo, etc... NO sideloading. YOU KNOW THIS but want to keep your viewers on firestick so you can keep making firestick videos. C'mon Doc. You're better than that. ... At least I thought you were. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@Real_American_DADI have to agree with everything you said was spot on , and I’m also a little disappointed with doc

​@@Real_American_DAD Well, it can be debated whether Amazon is going to a 'closed OS' with Vega on their streaming devices. So, he metely gave his opinion. But as far as CURRENT devices, he's merely stating that all the fear-mongering talk that Amazon is going to install the new OS on them is silly ... for multiple reasons. On THIS, I 100% agree. However, it doesn't mean they are not going to keep being major d-bags in how they force updates that make their own customers' experiences WORSE (instead of better) and THAT is the reason I will soon be going to another streaming platform (Android-TV or Google-TV). Unfortunately, I am rather dependent on my Echo devices and that psycho byatch, 'Alexa' and just don't have money to switch it all (plus I still have a mostly-functional Recast DVR that requires it). sigh!

@@bigkahuna2084 it's OK. He's entitled to be wrong. There's NO DEBATE that Amazon WILL release their CLOSED OS (they've been working on for 5 YEARS) on NEW devices and f*ck us all in the near future, so WHY buy their products & support them??! ... HIS opinion (on this matter) is based on KEEPING PEOPLE on Amazon devices, for the sake of him making firestick videos!! My opinion is based on FACTUAL information from TRUSTED sources.

Smart

They're GOING TO lose customers. The main reason for having an Amazon device (vs a rok, apple, etc) is sideloading. ... Their LINUX OS is in the works to be released in NEW Amazon device models. The current models are safe. But screw them. They plan to screw us so I personally see no reason to support them AT ALL.

Please STOP buying Amazon. They're GONNA screw us & stop sideloading (on FUTURE devices) so why support them ?! 💥The onn 4KPRO looks like a good alternative. Gonna try one myself.

Yeah future devices not current so if u go get a current device you'll be ok, so carry on as u were folks

@@larchielad Anyone who buys an Amazon device is supporting a company that plans to SCREW US ALL with their "NEW" devices... IF you're supporting that, you're a FOOL.🤷🏻‍♂️ ... Carry on.

Similar to the US Gov't their goal is to have more & MORE "CONTROL" over what we do (with our firesticks) 🤬 lol.

They only blocked local adb

They blocked the ADB so we couldn’t have our custom home screens so they could push there advertising down our throats, funny thing is they could have done it without touching ADB as they have shown ,

There's no reason to do it... YET they plant to implement their LINUX OS in New device models. Guess they wanna be sideload free like APPLE & ROKU. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yep. They're obnoxious, unreasonable & their practices are simply UNACCEPTABLE. Time to move on !!

U was just tying this exact same reply

Lmao I saw that to so is this just another way to push vpn advertising on us 🤔

why, when vega is based on linux and so is android lol

@@DocSquiffy so is Roku

NO. Get the ONN 4K PRO.

@@Real_American_DAD what's better Google tv stick or onn stick

@@figueroaeduardo758 I wouldn't buy EITHER. I'd get the onn 4KPRO. It should be available SOON @ Walmart.

@@figueroaeduardo758 I personally wouldn't buy either. 💥I would buy the: *ONN 4K PRO* as soon as it's available from Walmart.

@@figueroaeduardo758the new onn 4K device if you live in us you can’t beat it for price and what it offers you , 32gb of internal storage 3gb of ram Ethernet port usb 3,0 Wi-Fi 6 , remote control finder all for $49.99 . There is no comparison it smashes the google tv dongle

They may offload apps, that setting needs turning off

@@DocSquiffyit should never of been put there if I want to remove apps I’ll do it ,

@@johnsnow7836 yes, they do it to try help ppl running out of storage but it doesn't work correctly

@@DocSquiffy help ppl ? , have we become that stupid that Amazon thinks we do not know what apps we want on our devices , its an intrusive add on and another way to control what we do. You ever seen the series upload on Amazon it just vibrates what amazon could be in years to come , if you have not watch it

Based on Linux kernel yes

Why,?

I was thinking the same 😊​@@DocSquiffy

🤣😂😂 had to laugh

@@johnsnow7836 still no reason why

So u didn't debunk anything lol
