[KERNEL][FireTV Stick 4K] Custom Kernel For AFTV 4k - 6.2.9.4

[fluffi444]

Sry for my dump question but i dont wanna brick my device. I'm currently on Fire TV Stick 4K 6.2.8.1 r3_4054 Fully Patched Rom (from here). I need exfat/ntfs Support. Which Version of your Kernel i should Install? I dont wanne lose Root. Is it recommended to make a Backup through twrp? Thx

It's quite easy:
Flash in one TWRP Session in following order:
1 - boot_mantis_6.2.8.1_R1(not_tested).zip - Author wrote not tested, but I guess it should be fine!
2 - Magisk-v25.2.zip - Even if installed, flash it again for kernel patching
3 - AFTV4k_Selinux_Magisk_Module.zip
4 - AFTV_exFAT-NTFS-F2FS-EXT4_OTG_SUPPORT_v1.4.1.zip

Wait , it's better- Flash 6.2.8.1_r2., that fixes Netflix/TZ, afterwards you can flash any other FW again

@cityhunter_1919_xyz i never used a pre-rooted rom so i can't guarantee that the procedure will be smooth .

Those steps look fine to me,but after flashing 6.2.9.4 (step 1),you should mount "system" partition ,then use TWRP's File Manager to delete these two files :

/system/bin/efuse_check.sh
/system/bin/ewritter

Then it should be safe to procede with the other steps (my kernel has the efuse stuff removed ,so it's also safe).

As long as you stay unlocked ,it should be possibile to downgrade ,but you might need to downgrade the TZ too ,can't say for sure cause i never tried to downgrade from 6.2.9.4.

Hi.

I'm currently on 6.2.8.1 rooted and I want to update to 6.2.9.4 in addition to flash the custom kernel.

I'm just afraid of the updates. Once I flashed everything and restart to system will the fire stick update? What should I do in order to avoid the updates?

Thanks in advance

Easy. In TWRP, backup all you have first, just in case. Then, flash stock 6.2.9.4 renamed to zip, then 6.2.9.4 custom kernel from here, then Magisk 25.2 all in one TWRP session. If you had MAgisk already, it'll find the modules. If not - reboot to TWRP, and flash required magisk modules too.

Hi! if I flash stock 6.2.9.4 renamed to zip, how to prevent e-fuse blow?

I don't think it's a thing anymore, and TWRP should just ignore the fuse blowing instruction. Do XDA search - it was all discussed a while ago.
