    We bought a JB firestick from someone on the internet. We've had some luck with using/watching shows but really don't know how to use to the best advantage. We usually watch shows on either Yes Movies or Go Movies on Terrarium but have recently have had lots of problems with "buffering" or the show stopping every few minutes. Went on Youtube and tried to find a solution but whatever we did, now the Yes Movies/Go Movies option doesn't even show up and we only get options for "estream" "the video" "now video" or "openload" which when we click on them have links that need resolved and then say that there isn't a stream available. Anyone willing to provide some guidance, advice or knowledge to help with this. I am currently post surgery and have to stay in bed for 2 weeks so I'm really relying on this firestick to help me make it thru this.

    Thanks in advance.

    "If you are using the Fire Stick to view movies and TV shows you would typically have to pay for, then you are probably in a legal gray area. If you are paying someone to “Jailbreak a Fire Stick,” more than likely, they are configuring KODI to watch content that you would normally be required to pay for. This is done through Kodi-Plugins that provide access to pirated content."
    We will not help you in this pursuit.

    In addition to what TimW said, take note: While I have not done this, I know people who have and regretted it. Depending on how it's done, modifications to a Fire Stick can make it very unstable. The $50 or more you pay someone to make an illegal modification may only last a few weeks and may make watching legitimate programming hard or impossible.

    It isn't worth it. Renting a movie on Amazon usually only costs about $3.

    Roku device .... Netflix subscription. All legal and relatively inexpensive.

    Roku is a lot less complicated and there are tons of choices that you won't find on TV or cable.
