SOLVED: firestick 4k max

[Welllookiehere]

So if I don't touch the remote or anything the firestick seems to go to sleep.  I have checked the sleep settings and there is nothing set to sleep.

Anyone else had this problem with Jellyfin?  When I watch live tv via Tivimate I dont seem to have this issue.

Thx

adb shell settings list secure | grep sleep
sleep_timeout=0

adb shell getprop | grep sleep
[persist.sys.hdmi.sleep_mode]: [off]

FireOS doesn't expose all settings that it should and screen timeout is one, then it has the hdmi as well. i guess they just think you shouldn't change things and leave it up to them (as if i would)

So how do I get into shell mode on a firestick (perhaps a dumb question but if you have no clue it's actually a good question) :-)

short answer, enable debugging, install android toolkit on your pc, connect over tcp "adb connect (ip):5555"

I saw there is a slightly easier way to do this via a shell app on my phone. I did other but similar commands that supposedly work.

5) Select ADB debugging ON

6) Connect via ADB Shell on another device and type:

settings put system screen_off_timeout 2073600000
settings put secure sleep_timeout 0
7) Restart

did those steps. testing now...
