    Fire TV stick ungraded overnight...killed sideloaded apps.

    I've be using this Fire TV stick for viewing my cameras for a couple of months, using a sideloaded app. Overnight it ugraded itself to version 5.0.5, and now the sideloaded app will launch, but won't continue running, just exits. Anyone else using this device and having this problem?
