Here is a brief overview of all the steps I took and the results.
I started by deleting kodi using these two commands:
andCode:sudo apt-get remove kodi*
Code:sudo apt-get purge kodi*
Then I followed @cscott1 's suggestion running these two commands:
andCode:sudo apt-get clean
Code:sudo apt-get autoremove -y
After running the four commands, I followed @redglory 's suggestion to manually delete thefolder, and I actually took a step further and deleted all files and folders within the main ~/.kodi folder.Code:~/.kodi/userdata/
After completing all the deletion steps, I rebooted the Raspberry Pi and conducted a fresh Kodi install using the commands:
Code:sudo apt-get install kodi
sudo apt-get install kodi-pvr-iptvsimple
Kodi started as a fresh install with no addons and in the default settings.
However, once I reinstalled the original Bingie skin, the Skin Helper Service/Skin Helper Service Backgrounds error messages returned and when I tried to use the skin it showed the black screen.
So out of all this, I'm assuming the problem lies in the installation of the original Bingie skin on Raspberry Pi. I'm guessing this is the problem's, because the problem is happening even before installing the Bingie MOD skin, which is dependent on the original Bingie skin.
Did you try the cheat I suggested setting up Kodi and Bingie up on PC then copying the addon and userdata files to your ras. Pie kodi folder? I mean sometimes the round about way of doing things is the best way as long as it works in the end it doesn't matter how you got there.
In Windows this is where the files are located
Users/your username/AppData/Roaming/Kodi
