Just a quick question. It says on the page that i need root. I found a app called aLogcat, which states that it dosen't need any permissions, but when kodi has crashed and i open the log, there are no "kodi" or "xbmc" anywhere in that log. Does that mean that it didn't work? I'm sorry for all the questions, I do not know any of this stuff.
There are just no reason for me to post a log, which has nothing usefull in it.

No, aLogcat doesn't work non-rooted (it only logs its own messages).
If you're not rooted, use the "Android SDK" method. There are also zip's around with just the "adb" program that you need to use.
Do something like "adb logcat > kodi.log" in a terminal, attempt to launch kodi on the device, then ctrl-c in the terminal.
Check that kodi.log is valid (you should see KODI messages, there) and upload it.

Are you using the Google Play version? If so, could you retry with the official 14.2 apk, please.

I cannot install the nightly because I have no way of allowing installation of apps from Unknown Sources, which results in "Parse Error - There is a Problem Parsing the Package Error"... I'm getting pretty sick of this TV..
