Try booting in safe mode

If that doesn't work, you can try to boot into recovery. The Recovery menu exists on the 4K stick and earlier FireTVs, I don't know if it still exists on the 4k Max, but worth a shot.

How to unbrick by entering Recovery Mode and Factory Reset the Amazon Fire TV

If you've managed to brick your Fire TV or for whatever reason are unable to get to the settings menu to perform a factory reset, here is how to enter recovery mode without fully booting into the Fire TV's operating system.

If neither of those two options work, it's time to use the 1-year warranty and get it replaced.

Both options don't work. Mine is already on the way to Amazon for repair/replacement

Is there a way to fix it without a keyboard? Heard something about ADB and connecting the Firestick to a computer, but it hasn't worked.

User authorization is needed to connect a new device via ADB. If you haven't connected your computer to your FireStick before already, and granted authorization, you won't be able to now, since the authorization screen only shows on your TV after you have already booted up.

There is also no guarantee that the system is booting far enough to start ADB on the FireTV.

That sucks, although understandable. Any other ways to get out of the bootloop or an USB keyboard dongle is needed?

Without a keyboard the only way to influence the Stick is with your remote. And all you can do with the remote is initiate a factory reset

Press and hold the Left button, Menu button, and Back button at the same time.

But this only works if you get far enough in the boot process for the remote to connect.

Hello, a while ago a friend gave me a fire tv to see if it could be fixed, the problem is that it doesn't update, I restored it from the factory but it's still the same, any help is welcome

Try a hotspot on the phone and connect the Fire TV stick to the hotspot from the phone. I had the same problem and with hotspot it worked.

Hello, tell me pliz, is there a way to fix this?
after turning it on, it immediately gets into the Recovery mod,
if you connect the keyboard, it only reacts to combinations of 5 buttons which makes the factor default, but just a quick overload and again recover
up and down buttons do not respond, input and remote too,

I tried to connect to AbdLink, it seems like the device is seen but writing unauthorized

does not respond to reboots from the application.

Is there any chance to fix this?

PS. Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max was bought in November, nothing was manipulated with it.
