I too have the same issues and I have spent the last 6 hours non stop trying to find a resolution
I am running a nightly Android build (pre-v13 "Gotham")
Its the same situation really. A load of add ons are marked as Incompatible... Including ProjectFreeTV which I really want.
please help?
Im getting seriously pee'd off trying to fix this
Aside from doing what was suggested above, to contact the addon developers, (which is the actual solution), a workaround that is working for me is the following:
I have XBMC on Windows, Linux, and Android. Since I am running Android 4.4.2, I require XBMC Alpha, since older versions of XBMC do not work on 4.4.2. Unfortunately, the dependency problems occur. As a workaround, when I copy my '.xbmc' folder onto my Android from, for example, my Linux machine, I do these steps to ensure it works:
1. Delete all the repos folders in '/.xbmc/addons,' 'commoncache.db' and 'cookies.dat' in '/.xbmc/temp,' all but the 'CDDB' folder in '/.xbmc/userdata/Database/,' and all in '/.xbmc/userdata/Thumbnails.'
2. Change all 'xbmc.python' versions in all addons to '2.1.0'. If copying from Linux or Windows, as it's easier to do this is on an actual computer, it can be done with one line when opening a terminal window in the '.xbmc' folder and typing:
find . -type f -exec sed -i s/'addon="xbmc.python"\ version="2.0"'/'addon="xbmc.python"\ version="2.1.0"'/g {} + && find . -type f -exec sed -i s/'addon="xbmc.python"\ version="1.0"'/'addon="xbmc.python"\ version="2.1.0"'/g {} +
Now, when run in Android, instead of numerous addons being market as broken, I only get one or two (ones built-in). And these actually haven't popped up in a while. The one flaw here is none of your addons can update via extra repos, but at least it's something.
