Which Button Is Select on Firestick Remote
All buttons, Android events, and behavior guidelines are the same for all remotes — with the exception of the voice search (microphone) button, that's is simply available on a few remotes.
In particular, easy input from any controller such as navigation or selection can be managed through key events in the same way you would handle input from a keyboard or a button pad.
The remote controllers for Fire Stick Service Edition have some extra buttons — like volume up/down, power, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other apps.
To capture particular button press events in your View, override input event handlers like on Key Down. Test for the input constants from the Key Event class to capture particular keys.
If it still doesn't work, follow the steps to reset your remote and re-pair it with Fire Stick:
Note: The following steps don't reset your Fire Stick to factory settings.

That may be the case, but this post does not answer the question: which button is the select button? I can't find this on the internet, and the buttons are not labeled.
ReplyDeleteNever mind, it's the big button (though your explanation does not say that anywhere).
DeleteDidn't know that there was even a button in the center of the circle. I was pressting around the button lol. So in the center of the circle is the confirm button for anybody who needs to know.
