Best Kodi builds 2016-2020

[Jai Dee 3,756]

Here's a new build with a slightly different interface... a selection wheel and a muscle car theme.

Here is a very artistic and visually appealing build:

I'm no expert on kodi, but am using Durex build on Kodi 17.3 at the moment and very pleased with it.

Is this the one that is supposedly safe to use because it protects against viruses?

I've had a few builds running on what was kodi 16 then used the fork to get kodi 17.

 

My box is very old and only running OS 4.4.2

 

For some reason it has booted off the builds and returned to the standard Kodi format. I have no idea why.  I've run Apollo and the Beast build which I found to be good.

 

Previously I was running Titanium  but that too disappeared.

 

Weird....the good thing is that I can still use the Box even with the basic Kodi.  But I will find/use another build as they make life easier

Because Kodi 16 builds are not compatible with Kodi 17.

 

If you want to use your Kodi 16 build, but want to have the SSL compatibility, use a Kodi 17 Fork based on 16.1.

 

Mygica is based on 17.0

 

FTMC is based on 16.1

 

In the Kodi settings you should also disable auto update for the Skins, especially for the Estuary skin, but also for the skin your build uses.

I went back to version 3.2.5.5 and stopped it being able to update. Works great and none of the bloatware.

any idea where I can find this ES Explorer apk?

 

nvm got it….now just figuring out how to instal….first delete my old es? Or instal old one and delete new one?

The Durex Build does have some good reviews - see here.

There is a new Xenon Build available... looks good.

Zen is gone and replaced by Elysium. Gadget Junkie has created a new build that updates you. Here is a look at how to make it run and what you get from the upgrade.

For some reason the search function on Exodus seems to have stopped working.

Search works in FTMC 16.2.29 (amlogic), android KitKat 4.4, with the SSL and Python updates.

 

What version of KODI are you using? 

 

Exodus is now repo V3.0 and the addon at 3.1.19

Have you tried uninstalling Exodus and deleting all the existing Exodus information in the user folder?

 

Reinstall from scratch again and see if that fixes it.

I'll try that tomorrow if I have time.
