I think I fixed it. Please remove those folders again, restart HA, and let me know if it works.
Yep that worked.
Showed running apps in source though if app hasn’t been started then didn’t appear until it had been started on the fire.
Would it not make more sense for source to list installed apps instead? Allowing HA to open apps that aren’t already running in background?
"pm list packages -3"|cut -f 2 -d ":"
^ would list user installed apps, then adding known pkgs such as com.amazon.tv.launcher and other preinstalled apps would be a more useful sources list would it not?
I guess pushing aapt to a temporary directory on the device to be able to get an array of these app id’s and their friendly names would be a step too far though… 
You can launch an app from the component, just use the media_player.select_source service.
Showing the installed apps is an interesting idea. The list might be a bit long, though. Either way, I think adding an installed_apps property would be a good contribution to the firetv package.

Apologies yes, I misworded my comment. My line of thought was that as it picks that up from the running_apps property that on a freshly turned on firetv it wouldn’t appear on sources list until you’d manually launched it, so you’d either need a way to set apps you know you’ve got installed in either an automation or add a feature to the component to add them in the config.
Just tried the lastest master firtv.py and get the following error.

Problem: You have an old version of the firetv package installed.
Solution: In your <configuration>/deps folder (and all subfolders), delete all firetv and firetv* folders and restart Home Assistant. HA will install the latest version of firetv 1.0.8 from GitHub.
Tried this out last night, but there appears to be pip dependency failures when trying to install 1.0.8 on hassio running home assistant 0.84.6.
install package https://github.com/JeffLIrion/python-firetv/zipball/pure-python-adb#firetv==1.0.8: Failed building wheel for pycryptodome
python-jose-cryptodome 1.3.2 has requirement pycryptodome<3.4.0,>=3.3.1, but you'll have pycryptodome 3.7.3 which is incompatible.
pyrebase4 4.2.0 has requirement oauth2client==4.1.2, but you'll have oauth2client 4.0.0 which is incompatible.
broadlink 0.9 has requirement pycryptodome==3.4.11, but you'll have pycryptodome 3.7.3 which is incompatible.
It appears the pins for python-jose-crptodome are too restrictive and there are newer versions installed in my hassio instance. Then there are more versions not possible due to strict pins for other dependencies.
Has anyone come across this?
Yes, other people have had that issue. I don’t know what the solution is, but here’s an idea.
Remove the firetv.py custom component file and restart HA, modifying your configuration as needed. Hopefully the built-in Fire TV component will install the correct version of pycryptodome. Then restore the firetv.py custom component and restart. Let me know if that fixes it!
Just tried this out and it worked! Thanks!
Sorry for posting this is it’s already been answered. Getting the following now with master firetv.py

Yup. My bad.
Actually, the master branch is more current: https://github.com/JeffLIrion/homeassistant_native_firetv/blob/master/media_player/firetv.py
You might need to delete the firetv package that is currently installed. See here for more info: https://github.com/JeffLIrion/homeassistant_native_firetv/issues/25
I am seeing these messages too, watching it regularly flick between unavailable to working, I’m thinking that this has something to do with drop outs and high response time which is a known problem with the Fire 4KTV.

For some reason i’m still getting the “keys” error after deleting everything in my “deps” folder. Any other tricks to get the older version out?
First, make sure you’re using the latest firetv.py component from the master branch. I fixed a typo earlier where the wrong link was used for the requirement.
The latest version of HA wasn’t installing the package from GitHub for me, so I had to install it into a directory on a separate computer via pip install --target . https://github.com/JeffLIrion/python-firetv/zipball/next-release and then copy the files over.
Or you can:
# use the correct path for your setup
cd /config/deps/python3.6/site-packages/firetv
mv __init__.py BACKUP.py
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JeffLIrion/python-firetv/next-release/firetv/__init__.py
Using an ADB server to send the ADB commands should be more stable than using the Python adb package. See item 2 in the “ADB Setup” section of the README.
Installed the latest version with the ADB server addon on Hassio. Getting this error:

Already tried several reboots, delete custom firetv.py, restart and re-install.
Anyone encounter this?
I was using the adb addon released by Frank but it seemed to break the ability to use the adb_shell to send commands to the Fire TV.
