Full Version: Updating Minix 8H

Could somebody please help me. I am trying to update my Minix-8H box from Kodi 15.1 to 16.1 (I know that release 17.1 is released, but first things first). I have previously updated Kodi 15.1 from XMBC & all went well. I have downloaded Kodi 16.1 apk
to a USB stick & the Minix box. Which ever one I use to install the apk , usimg option new or all, the following message appears, after failing to load "An existing package by the same time with a conflicting signature is already installed" I expected the file to install & overwrite the existinh Kodi 15.1 to 16,1 & keep my existing settings. Does this mean I have to delete Kodi 15,1, losing all my settings & start again ?

Many Thanks
As I seem to be unable to update my Minix 8H box from Kodi 15.1 to 16.1, dispite previously updating XMBC to Kodi 15.1, should I just delete Kodi & install 17.1 & loose all my settings & add ons & start from from new. Any advice & help would be appreciated
Please don't double post. I've merged your threads.

It sounds like your box is running a custom version of Kodi. You will need to uninstall that version and then install the official version.

As for v17.1, is your device running Android 5.0 or greater? If not then you won't be able to install v17.1
Its not going to work at all.

You need Android 5.0 Lollipop to even be able to install Kodi v17.

Forget about Android Kodi Krypton completely on this box, your only hope is to install LibreELEC Kodi Krypton, and instructions for that start from this post:

This is the LibreELEC .img to use:
