Mi TV stick 4k doesn't turn on using remote

by Nyankomori

Hello I recently bought a MI TV stick 4k (my first android tv stick)

If I turn off the TV stick using the stick's remote's power button and then turn it on after an hour (a short while), it turns on.

But when I turn it off and try to turn it on the next morning (a long time) using the stick's remote, it doesn't turn on. I have to take the power plug out and put it in again to restart.

So, my questions are:

  1. Why can I not turn on the tv stick using the stick's remote (after a long while)???

  2. And am I even supposed to even turn off the TV stick??

I did not plug it in the TV's USB port. I used a seperate wall socket. And I think the stick doesn't power off, it just sleeps when I press the power button on the remote.

I have the same device and is doing the same for me overnight. I have yet to fing a soultion for this. What I am thinking it turns the TV off but not the stick and it turns of or goes to hybernation(sleep) then turns off.

I have the Mi Stick 4K as well, what I do is plug the power cable into the USB port of the TV, and once I turn off the TV the stick turns off as well and when I turn on the TV the stick starts as well.

I just didn't want it constantly running when I put it into the power outlet.
