Wookie stopped working and my box was running like a dog. I installed kodi 17.1 (i think) and Durex build and got nothing but 'errors check log file' and hardly any add-ons worked. Every addon I opened seemed to just display some basic options, 'play lists' folder etc but no streams. I installed Kodi 16.1 and the build again but got same issues. I've now done a full factory re-set of my box. Can anyone recommend best version of kodi that will run on the T8 and also recommend a build? Be gentle please, i'm a bit of a technophobe
Factory reset on my T8 running 4.4.2. Which version of kodi and build should I install
- Thread starter Edgey
- Start date
Hi
First of all Kodi 17 won't run on a t8 running android 4.4.2.
Instead get CEMC from Google play or FTMC from freaktabs. Mygica also emulates Kodi 17.
I'm not certain that many builds run on Kodi 16 these days. Other forum members maybe able to help. So you may want to install the 5 or 6 add-ons you actually use manually. (The bestforkodi web site can help).
Wookie has finished at any rate.

Hi, thanks for your help. But still having problems. I did a factoryreste on my box and installed kodi 61.1 jarvis. I added the source 'h**p://perksmedia.net/wizard replace ** with tt' and chose installed zip file. This gave me two options, a plugin file and a repo file. I installed both....I think!, I tried to run the wizard but nothing happened. I've still got the basic kodi screen and when I try to run the wizard i get 'perksmedia wizard error check log file'. Also elsewhere I see the message 'the dependency on scrip module could not be satisfied'.
Any suggestions guys?. As I said, apologies but i struggle with this technology. Im losing the will to live now.
All help welcomed

Just to double check, you are definitely opening Kodi, not something like Kodi (SPMC, DBMC, FTMC etc.), and this Kodi 16.1 was installed either from the Play Store, or via http://mirrors.kodi.tv/releases/android/arm/old/ ? If not, might be worth uninstalling your current Kodi, installing it from the Play Store or visiting the URL I mentioned in a browser on your DroidBOX, then opening the APK file you download (it will be in your Downloads folder).
Hi. I installed kodi-16.1 jarvis-armeabi-v7a.apk from http://mirrors.kodi.tv/releases/android/arm/old/. I added source h**p://perksmedia.net/wizard replace **. installed zip file. This gave me two options, a plugin file and a repo file. I installed both. I tried to run the wizard but nothing happened. I've still got the basic kodi screen. I tred to run the wizard, it appeared to start running but stopped and I get i get 'perksmedia wizard error check log file'. Also elsewhere I see the message 'the dependency on scrip module could not be satisfied'.
Am I doing some basics wrong in trying to add this stuff?, does anyone have the time to give me the step by step instructions before i assume my box is bugged?

Edgey, I have Sean's Build on my T8s, which has the same android and Kodi as the T8. I installed CEMC. I don't remember the step by step installation but will uninstall and reinstall the build and post it. Not sure when though, but Monday at latest. If you get it sorted before that let us know
Dan. That's an aweome offer of help. Please don' screw up your box on my account
Step by step guide:- uninstall kodi 16.1 and install cemc from playstore. Open the 'file manager' submenu under SYSTEM. Add source h**p://perksmedia.net/wizard **=tt name it 'perks'/ ok. Goto system/ addons/ install from zip file/ install perksmedia repo. Still in system/ install from repository/ perksmedia/ install the wizard/ wait for the message it has installed/ back out to home screen/ programs/ open pm wizard/ community builds/ seans 16.1/ click no to freshstart and no to save addon data. The build will install and press ok when its finished to force close kodi. Go back in to cemc and wait a munite or so to build the menus. All done (I updated the build to V1.4.7 less than an hour ago and every menu opens and streams) Enjoy
Brilliant!. All working fine and many thanks for your help. Last question I hope....Does the build automatically update to the latest version or must this be done manually?. If so, how is this done and how will I know an updated version is available?
Have told perks m I have updated and he needs to change the version number his end on his server for the updates to happen. If 'netstreams' is a main menu the update has happened, any further updates you will get a message when you open the build 'saying there is a newer version of it out' then just follow the prompts/ freshstart etc then go back in to redownload. Also if you have trakt/ real debrid/ setup within the build you can save your login data.
