The shorting essentially puts the device in a state where it's capable of receiving said commands and can easily be achieved by holding something conductive to the point marked DAT0 in the image above. In a nutshell, the process involves downloading the ISO, connecting your Fire TV Stick to a computer with a USB cable and running some commands. You can download the ISO from the post and burn it to a CD or USB flash drive before proceeding with the instructions. Additionally, you'll need a patched Linux-kernel on your PC which has conveniently been included in a live-ISO. The exploit works pretty much like the one used for the Fire TV Stick 2nd gen and to begin with you'll have to open the device, remove the heat shield on the side without the antennas, and then short specific points on the board.
