Hi,
I've managed to get the 'spotty' binaries working for Android 9. I tested the Spotify plugin 1.3.7 on Fire TV Cube and it works fine.
Unfortunately with Android 10+, Google changed the permissions structure making it very difficult for apps to run binaries. Effectively,
the binaries have to be specially bundled with an official Apk; but this doesn't fit the Kodi (unofficial) addon model.
I wonder whether other Kodi addons for Android have run into this problem. Or maybe not many addons need to run binaries.
