For the colored options for Sorting, Search, favorite etc., you can use the TV remote if it has those 4 colors. This will work if the Firestick has detected the correct brand of TV during setup or set later in Settings.

For issues in entering PIN on restricted contents, use FireTV app from your mobile phone after connecting to same wifi as firestick.
