The Fire TV Stick is essential to make our somewhat old televisions completely intelligent, offering us access to a multitude of applications, such as streaming services.
And although Amazon is quite clear when it comes to telling us how to correctly install the Fire TV Stick on the television, some users are taking the risky path, and only by paying attention to social networks.
Just as Amazon says, the correct way to install and configure the Amazon Fire TV Stick, is to connect it to the HDMI port of the TV and then plug the power adapter into a power outlet.
All you have to do is use the USB cable to connect the power adapter to the Fire TV Stick.
However, there are also many people who are plugging in their Fire TV Stick to the TV’s USB instead of the power outlet.
When plugged into the TV’s USB, the Fire TV Stick receives a certain amperage, so many believe that it would no longer be necessary to plug it into the power outlet. That’s the mistake.
But the USBs on televisions offer insufficient amperage for the Fire TV Stick to work correctly, so it can end up being corrupted.
In fact, in this case, if the television turns off, so would the Fire TV Stick, and if at that moment the Amazon device is being updated, the memory could be corrupted.
Likewise, by not receiving enough amperage when having the Fire TV Stick connected to the TV’s USB, Updates may not be performed correctly and the device is damaged.
In this way, technology experts point out that the Fire TV Stick must be installed as Amazon explains on its official website, which is the one we described at the beginning of the news.
