Fix Fire TV Stick Black Screen & Change Resolution FAST with Remote! 4K Max Tutorial
A black screen on your Amazon Firestick 4K Max, often accompanied by flickering or no display, can sometimes be resolved by changing the resolution using the remote. This issue is commonly caused by a resolution/refresh rate mismatch between the Firestick and your TV. Below is a concise guide to change the resolution using the remote shortcut and additional steps to address a black screen issue.
Change Resolution with Firestick Remote
Use the Remote Shortcut:
Press and hold the Up button and the Rewind (rewind) button on your Firestick remote for 5-10 seconds.
The Firestick will cycle through available resolutions (e.g., 4K at 60Hz, 4K at 50Hz, 1080p at 60Hz). A notification should appear on the screen showing the current resolution.
If the screen is black, you may not see the notification, but the Firestick is still cycling. Wait 10-15 seconds for each resolution to test.
When a resolution stabilizes (screen displays correctly without blacking out), press the OK button to confirm. If no display appears, let it cycle to the next option or press Cancel to revert to the previous setting.
Test Lower Resolutions:
If the black screen persists, try cycling to a lower resolution like 1080p at 60Hz or 4K at 50Hz, as some TVs struggle with higher settings (e.g., 4K at 60Hz).
