Would this work with the new Amazon Fire TV unit? Amazon has yet to get the onboard Bluetooth chip to work ...

This chip is a bluetooth 4 version chip. Seems to work very well, but I don't know what the amazon unit requires. Might be worth a try. Sorry I don't know more.

I hope you have found the answer you are looking for. If your Smart Television is bluetooth enabled and supports the proper bluetooth protocols, I do not see why this product would not work with your device. I couldn't further address your question without specific information about the make and model of your device, but you may be able to look on the manufacturers website.

Assuming your TV has a DVI input and your Amazon Fire TV has an HDMI output, then this cable will only provide video connection, no sound. What you need is an HDMI Switch that will increase the number of HDMI ports of your TV. For example, Cable Matters 3 Port 3x1 HDMI Switch with IR ( see Cable Matters 3 Port 3x1 HDMI Switch with IR ) .

Personally had no luck with the hdmi port working on this unit as others reported. Another OTG Hub or Dongle will allow this to work, i believe Aerb makes one more affordable than the Samsung hub. You can also look into a Samsung Allcast. Personally it's whether you want the device wireless and to use the phones screen, or to use a bluetooth keyboard and remote the phone in a hub wired to the TV.On the previous answer, if you use this unit "and it works", the Tablet or Smartphone enters mirroring mode, basically whats on the screen goes to the monitor or tv. No other apps are needed. Personally had no luck with the hdmi port working on this unit as others reported.

Bill, I have successfully synced my Android smart phone via the JVC's wireless Bluetooth connection (mainly for Pandora and Sirius) and I've connected my MP3 player via the USB port, but I haven't tried syncing any other devices - haven't had the need. But, my wife does have the Kindle Fire HDX, so if you'll give me a day or two, I can get back to you about that. Btw, this JVC sound system is awesome. I'm not sure how sending a second response will work via this Amazon email portal but if I have any problems with getting back to you, I'm sure they can help me out.

The internet says yes:http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/help/fire-tv-xbox-360-wireless-receiver-party-t2871770

Yes it worked with a Bluetooth speaker and the internal speaker of the TV still worked. Slight sound delay so a little annoying.

I just got the Coby Kyros MID8024 and the applibs its not compatible with the device. Downloaded the Amazon apps for android and it still doesn't work.Any sugestions???

I do not believe it will work, as the Kindle Fire (at least the original) does not contain Bluetooth circuitry. If you are looking for wireless audio, there are bluetooth transmitter\headphone devices that plug into the headphone port.

There is no Harmony Link app in the Amazon android store. I tried sideloading the apk, but the tablet still gave me an error "unable to run this app". Let the Logitech tech support know, hopefully, they will push out a version of their software for the Fire soon.

It's functioning on my set. EDIT: APPARENTLY there are a few different firmware versions on these sets...mine is E550i-b2V 1.16.47.0758. Some sets have E550i-b2 V 1.25.24.0234. My opinion is that this is causing a lot of problems in the tv enthusiast community. It's possible that Amazon Instant Video is NOT working on both firmware versions, as some are still reporting it isn't functioning. Vizio is NOT offering a firmware update at this time, so as far as I know, you are stuck with what firmware version you get....for the time being.

what if I bought an adapter for the fire's mini-usb port and connected that to a keyboard. Wouldn't it work then? Or is it a software communication problem that wouldn't be fixed even if I could get the fire and usb keyboard to physically connect to each other correctly?

I don't know. Mine works fine. If it's like all the other Amazon stuff, I guess yes.

I'm not familiar with Amazon fire stick, do I would not be able to help you in that area. You should try asking them before making the purchase. But this works very well for my home without having anything else in connection with it, all devices in our home picks up the wifi connection very quick and easily. Hope this helps you.

It is NOT Bluetooth. I think it might work with your tv but I am not sure since I have a different model. Please call Vizio customer care and they will confirm

For the time being, you'll need at least the Kindle Fire HD for the Bluetooth and then sideload the app from Swingbyte's site or Google's Play! store. I am taking advantage of Swingbyte's EXCELLENT customer service right now and will mention the need to get the app on the amazon Appstore in my next message to them

It's been a while but seems I remember that I could not pair it with my iPad...or anything else as long as I had my ear buds plugged in. I have successed pairing it with my PC, iPhone, iPad G3, and my present Samsung Galaxy S4. The only device I have not been able with is my 47" LG Flatscreen TV. It is equipped with WiFi and Bluetooth yet it will pair. I have a Bluetooth keyboard that paired very well with the TV. I'm told...not from LG...that a keyboard is the only thing the TV's Bluetooth will pair is a keyboard. I didn't know Bluetooth was that selective so I haven't given up....yet!
