As a result, your device will be restarted afresh with no problematic code or unresponsive app running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To restart your Amazon Fire Stick, remove your Fire Stick from the power supply and let it be for 1-2 minutes before plugging it back.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, you can restart your Fire Stick using the device remote following the steps given below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Step 1: <\/strong>Press the Play\/Pause and Select button at the same time.<\/li><li><strong>Step 2: <\/strong>Hold the two buttons until you see a message on the screen.

But your HDMI extender may also be the reason why your<strong> Amazon Fire Stick keeps restarting over and over<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The possible reason for the same is that the USB extender is faulty and needs to be replaced because it is not charging the Fire Stick completely.

It is highly likely that your Amazon Fire Stick may be restarting because you are using an unapproved cable and adapter to power it. Unfortunately, aftermarket USB cables from third parties aren&#8217;t compatible with Fire TV devices, so utilizing one can lead to power-related problems like the one we&#8217;re discussing today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is crucial that you power up your Amazon Fire Stick using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=fire+tv+power+adapter&amp;crid=1LYGWVCZP4XKI&amp;sprefix=fire+tv+power+adapter%2Caps%2C342&amp;ref=nb_sb_noss\">the official Amazon Fire Stick adapter<\/a>, and in case you have lost or misplaced it, order it online through Amazon.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Plug the Amazon Fire Stick On An Alternate HDMI Port<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/182.jpg\" alt=\"Plug the Amazon Fire Stick On An Alternate HDMI Port \" class=\"wp-image-7741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/182.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/182-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/182-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/182-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As you rule out each potential cause for why your firestick keeps restarting itself, it becomes more and more likely that there is an issue with the Fire Stick or the TV connection.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paying heed to the possibility, try connecting the Fire Stick to a different HDMI port to test the functioning. If it functions properly in a different port, either the original port is faulty, or the Fire Stick is incompatible with the HDMI version in that port.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Disable The HDMI-CEC Feature<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/183.jpg\" alt=\"Disable The HDMI-CEC Feature\" class=\"wp-image-7742\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/183.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/183-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/183-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/183-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Most new TVs and HDMI devices come with an HDMI-CEC feature. It is a useful feature that enables switching between devices and browsing easier with just one remote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have the feature on your TV, your Firestick can be managed by your TV. Therefore, it&#8217;s possible that your Firestick&#8217;s performance is being affected by the feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To see if the Firestick is constantly restarting due to the same, you should turn off HDMI CEC in the settings section of your TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Plug The Power Adapter Directly Into the Power<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/184.jpg\" alt=\"Plug The Power Adapter Directly Into the Power\" class=\"wp-image-7743\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/184.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/184-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/184-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/184-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Many Fire Stick users connect their device&#8217;s power cable to the TV&#8217;s USB port on the rear. If you are wondering why it is problematic to connect your Fire Stick to the USB port on your TV, then let me answer your question. Anything other than a genuine power outlet could provide your device with an inconsistent stream of electricity. Therefore, if your FireStick repeatedly restarts, simply put it directly into the wall power outlet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Clear Cache On Your Fire Stick<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/185.jpg\" alt=\"Clear Cache On Your Fire Stick\" class=\"wp-image-7744\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/185.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/185-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/185-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/185-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The ability to download apps that let you watch videos, listen to music, and do a variety of other things is one of the best features of Fire TV devices. But every app you download comes with a cache or data that the app temporarily saves on your Fire Stick device while it is running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cache file that is too big can cause apps to function poorly and slow down. Hence, you may face an issue like the Amazon Fire Stick reboot loop, which can be easily resolved by clearing the cache.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a Fire TV Stick or other Fire TV device, you can only clean the cache by doing it for every app or for the one that&#8217;s causing you problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s how<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Press the Home button or key on your Fire Stick remote.<br><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" class=\"wp-image-7745\" style=\"width: 500px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/186.jpg\" alt=\"Home button \" srcset=\"https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/186.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/186-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/186-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bringuptodate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/186-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/li><li><strong>Step 2: <\/strong>Select Settings<\/li><li><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Select Applications from the given list.<\/li><li><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Go to Manage Installed Applications and select the app you are having trouble with.

In fact, an external speaker could also be the reason why your Fire Stick turns on and off. Nowadays, the majority of TVs include multiple HDMI ports. Although the feature allows you to connect numerous devices to the TV, sometimes other HDMI devices cause the Fire TV Stick to restart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To rule out the possibility of the same, unplug all the devices from the TV, except the Fire Stick, and restart your Fire Stick.
