My Amazon Fire TV stick doesn't work. I plug into my HDMI tv and

power up. My screen shows only the " Search Icon - Home - Your Videos - TV - Apps - Settings. All in the top of the screen. I click on Home nothing opens up, Click on Your Videos, nothing, Click on TV nothing. Click on Apps nothin. Then I click on Settings it opens up. I can go through all the steps and get into Exodus and watch a movie. I have Kodi Jarvis 16.1. I wanted to update to Kodi Kypton 17.0 and then go up to version 17.3. My problem is I can't get anything to work I could upgrade Kodi! Have any ideas to help me?
