Full Version: Gotham does not start properly

Hi,

Here my strory:
I used Frodo 12.3. It worked more or less (besides the known bugs). Today I started it, it showed "preparing for first run". It crashed and didn't start anymore.
So I unsinstalled it and used the opportunity to upgrade to 13.1 Gotham.
And the same happened again, I started, it showed "preparing for first run" and black screen. I canceled it by pressing Alt+F4 and since that it did not start again.

I am using Android on an HDMI stick (so it's tablet like).
I was also looking for a log file but I couln't find any in sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files. The directory is empty. (There is no temp nor cache directory at all)

I hope you can help me.
Cheers,

You need to turn on debugging via the advancedsettings.xml.

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Log...ttings.xml

And you need to navigate to: /sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log

The /.xbmc folder is hidden so if you try to "ls" it will not show up.
Okay. Then I have the same issue like in this thread http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=199968
I could not find a solution there... just problems!
I've 4 gb free space. 54mb in /data .
HELP!
yes the latest alpha crashes not at start but when getting the movies/tv/music.
i have an ouya.
Well I just installed Kodi 14.0 “Helix” alpha2 (arm) and it works fine now...

Cheers,
