You're confused?? I am confused trying to understand what you wrote. Please use punctuation when writing, and not just one loooong sentence. I had to read it 4 times to try to understand what you wrote, and I still don't get it. What are you trying to install. Use some names please.

When I click install it start the downloading process them stops and says app. Not installed

It sounds like to have an existing version of Kodi installed on your box.
Uninstall that first then try to install the official version.

If Android is giving you the message "you are about to install an update to an existing application" then you have an application on there with the same ID.
My guess there is a version of Kodi on there but it's called something else. The pirates who made it probably didn't bother to change the app ID so Android thinks they are the same app.

I would suggest a factory reset to clear all that is preloaded. Then we install Kodi from kodi.tv or Playstore
