Kodi 17 update?

[dtvbandit]

Hi Marley thanks for your replies and suggestions. I just went and had a look at my 4k, went into market and there is no app there to install apk. I went to my folder and the apk is there but I can't figure out how to make it run or install. If you could look at your box it would be appreciated. On another note I emailed avov support and the reply i got was they are waiting for Kodi to come out with a final version as they say it has bugs and will be putting it on the 4k market (how long will that be?). Kodi is saying this is the final.

QUOTE=Ghost2k;165281]1 - Download the apk of the app that you need from the internet (you can do that directly via the browser or using your PC and a USB drive or memory card, ...), there is a lot of websites to get that or you can copy it from any rooted android device.

2 - After installing kodi, run it, go to "Programs" >> "Android apps" (here you will get all the installed apps in your box) >> "Settings" (here you will get the settings window of android), then "Security and restrictions" then turn "unknown sources" to "on", and "verify apps" and "restricted profile" to "off".

3 - Then back to kodi >> "Programs" >> "Android apps" but this time go to "AppInstaller" (the app which we will use to install apks), then select your source (local disk, memory card, usb drive), the app will search all available apks, then you have just to pick (check it at the right, don't click[if you click nothing will happen]) the one that you want to install and on the menu at the top right, click "install"[this will install from the app installer not from tvonline installer].
*got this from another post in the forums not mine i edited a few things
you will not see the apps in your my apps you will have to load them from kodi android apps

hope that helps[/QUOTE]

i posted that many time but yea thats it

Looking at the previous threads i see someone per Ghost2k says he has successfully installed it on his 4k. I was sort hoping that someone could provide more info. I tried installing a new app on Kodi yesterday and it was incompatible with 16 and so I thought why not upgrade Kodi to 17 since I use it the most.

Go to kodi.tv and download the android (ARM) file, u can download it using the browser on your 4k box or laptop and save it on the usb. Ghost2k already gave you the full details. Just follow that.

working fine for me bro, i was able to change the skins without any issues but it takes time to download each one.

I had to uninstall and re install it, then skins worked fine

kodi 17.1 is very nice just loading that on my tvonline4 loading some addons works flawless and very fast

 

[David S]

Which version of Kodi is in the Market. 17.1 or 17.3 ??
If I install the latest version of Kodi from the Market will I loose my Specto favorites and will I loose the addons ? ( Specto and Exodus )

 

[Stom]

I have an avov tv online 4 and when I follow this threads instructions on installing apk s , the package installer screen pops up but never installs the apk . Both bars stay gray

 

[Bkman2020]

Only whats on the market apparently they blocked apk from installing

[Marley]

didnt they load new kodi on updates ?

 

[theuduk]

I had 17.3 loaded from the store, then it started updating but vanished and not in the store either, emailed avov they replied it is in the store (not so) they said they were working on a new version but after waiting a few weeks in stalled 17.4 directly from the kodi web page(easy)
