This guide will walk you through changing the settings on your Amazon Fire TV device to allow for the installation of apps from unknown sources (also known as “jailbreaking”), downloading and installing Downloader, downloading and installing Filelinked and how to access the EasyStreet Solutions Filelinked App Store and install EasyStreet apps.

Applicable Devices: All Amazon Fire TV Devices (Fire TV Stick, Fire TV, Fire TV Cube and Fire TV Edition Televisions)

Note – We recommend following our guide for How To Download And Install EasyStreet TV Apps Using Downloader.  Using Downloader is a simpler process.  We are leaving these instructions as well for users who prefer to use Filelinked.  If you already have Filelinked installed on your device you can skip down to the LOADING THE EASYSTREET FILELINKED APP STORE AND DOWNLOADING APPS section of this guide.
