Hi @cabopino ,

Are you using it with the supplied power adapter connected or the USB cable?

If the USB cable, try using the power adapter instead. Perhaps the TV cannot supply enough power from its’ USB port for the Firestick and the Firestick is cycling on and off. Just a thought.

Have tried both power supplies and plugged the stick directly into the TV in both slots.
