A Word of advice.. do not upgrade your sticks to Kodi 16.. ram usage is a bit higher, and you will likely have lots of crashing as your device runs out of memory.
Instead, install Kodi 15 (stock, not a bundle) and the plugins you use, ie pvr.stalker.nfps, genesis..

Install Firestarter as well (google it) set it to launch kodi on boot, and on home press, and firestarter on double home press... (just a suggested order).... Then, sign out of amazon on your fire TV stick.. this will free up a fair amount of ram on the next boot.. you dont need to be signed in to amazon for kodi to launch... and you can still get to the fire tv settings menu through firestarter. - doing this should allow you to use the 24 hour, or 72 hour EPG without issue.

How do you sign out of Amazon on the Fire Stick? The only thing I've ever seen is register and deregister.
