I know this is almost certainly an AVAST antivirus/firewall issue but I hope someone else has plowed this ground and has an answer as waiting for AVASt is a lesson in futility.
Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit running a paid version of AVAST and a MOTO G smart phone with Android Lollipop.
Both KORE and Yatse were able to load but required a manual configuration [apple bonjour is on this pc] and both can see the unique name of my KODI PC so some communication is happening.
However neither program will connect fully unless the AVAST firewall is disabled totally and then both apps work perfectly fine.
I have my firewall security settings at their lowest level for private network connections and the PC & phone are on the same local network.
As I get a KODI firewall blocked noticed I even set an exclusion for ".C:\Program Files (x86)\Kodi\Kodi.exe" without any difference.
