How to Set Up Auto Launch Pickcel on Fire TV Stick with Fire OS 8?
Overview
If you already have a Fire TV device with Fire OS 8, follow the steps below to configure auto launch permissions.
Step by Step Guide
Step 1: Install the Signmitra app
Open the Amazon Appstore on your Fire TV Stick, search for Signmitra, and install the app. Launch it once installed.
Step 2: Enable Developer Options
From the home screen, go to Settings → My Fire TV (or Device) → About.
Select your Fire TV model name (e.g. “Fire TV Stick 4K Max”) and click it 7 times.
Note- When you see “No need, you are already a developer,” Developer Mode is enabled.
Go back to My Fire TV → Developer Options and turn ADB Debugging to ON.
Step 3: Find your Fire TV Stick IP address
Go to Settings → My Fire TV (or Device) → About → Network.
Note the IP address shown on screen (e.g. 192.168.10.38).
Step 4: Download ADB Platform Tools
Download Platform Tools from the Android developer website.
Choose the correct version for your operating system (Windows or macOS) and extract the files to an easy-to-find folder.
Step 5: Connect to Fire TV Stick and run ADB commands
Windows
Open File Explorer and navigate to the extracted platform-tools folder.
Right-click inside the folder and choose Open in Terminal.
On older Windows versions, hold Shift and right-click, then choose Open PowerShell window here.
Run the following command to start the ADB daemon:
adb devices
If successful, you will see the ADB daemon start.
Connect to your Fire TV Stick using its IP address (replace with your actual IP):
adb connect 192.168.10.38
On the Fire TV Stick, a prompt will appear asking to allow USB debugging. Check Always allow from this computer, then click Allow.
Verify the connection:
adb devices
You should see your device listed:
192.168.10.38:5555 device
Run the permission command (replace 192.168.10.38 with your Fire TV Stick IP address):
macOS:
Open Terminal and navigate to the extracted platform-tools folder:
cd ~/Desktop/platform-tools
Run the following command to start the ADB daemon:
./adb devices
If successful, you will see the ADB daemon start.
Connect to your Fire TV Stick using its IP address (replace with your actual IP):
./adb connect 192.168.10.38
On the Fire TV Stick, a prompt will appear asking to allow USB debugging. Check Always allow from this computer, then click Allow.
Verify the connection:
./adb devices
You should see your device listed:
192.168.10.38:5555 device
Run the permission command (replace 192.168.10.38 with your Fire TV Stick IP address):
Step 6: Launch Signmitra
Return to the Fire TV home screen and open the Signmitra app.
The permission error should now be gone, and Start at boot and auto-boot should work normally.
