I have an amazon fire tv and I want to make another identical setup on a fire tv with the same exact settings as the current ones, does anybody know how I can do this?

Are you hoping to share the same libraries, and watch statuses? If so, you will need to implement a MySQL deployment. As for the settings of Kodi, be sure not to copy the sources.xml file to the second device, as you will have duplicates in your library.
I'm in the process of doing this same process with two AFTV boxes.

I'll have to retry this. When I originally tried this a couple months ago, I backed up my entire Kodi configuration from my Master device (an AFTV), then restored the exact copy of the backup to my Client device (a second AFTV with same version of Kodi), and my library contents were doubled in number due to duplicates being created for every library entry. My sources were all SMB Share sources (smb://IP_Address/Directory), nothing local to the device.
Thanks for pointing this out Dilligaf.

Backing it up using ADBfire only backs up kodi and allows you to put those settings onto another firestick with kodi on it already. What if you want to backup the whole fire stick so you can copy it onto another fire stick that doesn't have kodi?
