How to access FireTV & Shield via SSH/WinSCP/FTP?

Recommended Posts

I know I should know this, but I haven't had a reason to until starting to look at installing PreShow on my Fire TV Cube so I can move over some bumpers, etc.  I tried looking it up on the Kodi forums and Wiki, but I haven't found a definitive answer.  I know several people here use Android devices, so thought I eat some crow and ask.  I presume it's all the same with Android, but I could be wrong.

Did some more searching.  I guess the terms I was originally using were wrong.  I see Android doesn't support it natively and you have to install a SSH server.  Looks like SSHelper is an option?  Haven't check the Amazon store to see if it's available yet.  Is that similar to what everybody else is using?

Well, looks like SSHelper along with other apps with similar features are going to be short lived, specifically on anything Android 10 and beyond. https://arachnoid.com/android/SSHelper/

So I guess my initial question still stands...
