Clearly it didn't fix the problem for your Firestick. The bug fix was for Android versions that did funky things, so your Firestick must be _really_ funky. Can you upload a debug log?
You can also try using the new Player Viewer window ("Players" from the in-game menu) to see that buttons are being interpreted as keypresses.
We're now at the "long tail" of Android controller support. You can see in https://github.com/garbear/xbmc/issues/137 that the Android OS was so funky it reported buttons as keyboard keys, and the only way to fix it was to step through the code and find the exact line that was failing then hack around it. My hope is that I can see the problem from the debug log, but if not then someone will have to do what Abasz did in that issue. And that probably means I'll have to obtain the hardware and find the problem myself.

I like to be as detailed as possible and send pictures/videos of what I am seeing/doing so you don't have to guess or assume anything about what I did. Thanks.
Debug logs are actually 100x more useful than pictures. We'll see if we can fix your Firestick problem with a debug log.

When the game started, the first thing that caught my eye was that the screen seemed a bit too narrow than what I am used to seeing in RetroArch.
This is likely an aspect ratio bug in Kodi. When I get a chance I'll try Atari 2600 in RetroArch and Kodi and see if I can fix the bug.
