In this article, we’ll show you how to exit Firestick and return to your regular TV channel lineup.

How To Exit Firestick

To exit Firestick and return to regular TV, follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the “Home” button on your Firestick remote for several seconds.
2. This will bring up a menu of options. Scroll down and select “Settings.”

How do I turn off my Firestick remote with my TV?

To turn off your Firestick remote with your TV, you will need to disable the “CEC” (Consumer Electronics Control) function on your TV. CEC is a feature that allows devices connected to your TV, such as your Firestick remote, to control the TV.

To disable CEC:

1. Press and hold the “Home” button on your Firestick remote for several seconds.
2. This will bring up a menu of options. Scroll down and select “Settings.”
3. In the settings menu, scroll down and select “Display & Sounds.”
4. In the display and sounds menu, select “CEC.”
5. From the CEC menu, select “Disable” or “Turn Off.”

After disabling CEC, your Firestick remote will no longer control your TV.

Note that the exact steps for disabling CEC may vary depending on your TV model.

If you’re not sure how to disable CEC on your TV, consult your TV’s user manual or contact the manufacturer for assistance.

Can you have cable and Firestick at the same time?

Yes, you can have cable and Firestick at the same time.

To use both cable and Firestick on your TV, you will need to connect your cable box and Firestick to your TV using HDMI cables.

You can then switch between the two by using the input selector on your TV remote.

Here are the steps to connect your cable box and Firestick to your TV:

1. Connect one end of an HDMI cable to the HDMI port on your cable box.
2. Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to one of the HDMI ports on your TV.
3. Connect one end of a second HDMI cable to the HDMI port on your Firestick.
4. Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to a different HDMI port on your TV.

Once both the cable box and Firestick are connected to your TV, you can switch between them by using the input selector on your TV remote.

The input selector is typically labeled “Input,” “Source,” or something similar, and can be found on your TV remote or on the front or side of your TV.

Note that some TVs may only have one or two HDMI ports, in which case you will need to use an HDMI splitter or HDMI switch to connect both the cable box and Firestick to your TV.

Consult your TV’s user manual or contact the manufacturer for assistance if you’re not sure how to do this.
