Just going to throw my experience in.
I am running on an android box that came with with my projector. [BENQ QS02]
It looks like kodi auto updated, but then crashed. It would lock at the "Omega" screen and hang.
I ended up having to go into the app and delete the data file. basically wiping out the database.
As I have a large database its going to take hours to rebuild. It seems this update was not quite ready for prime time. I wish I could get you a log file but unfortunately I had to wipe everything to get it running again.

No it was not an external database. It was just the default as installed on the android install.
One day I would love to figure out how to do an external database so i can sync several systems..

There is also a known problem of duplicated movies, which can happen for local or remote db, but it would result in an empty library, not a freeze or crash of Kodi.
Unfortunately without the log there isn't much that can be done.

Ok,
I want to start this off saying - I love Kodi and appreciate the indible hard work that goes into it. I have been using it off and on since XBMC days.
And this new version seems to have a bunch of new features that look great! 4k UHD / HDR+ DV ect.. So thank you!
However I have run into a few things. I already mentioned the update failure due to database issues on android.
However I hoped just rescanning my various libraries would bring it all back. However it seems the scanner is having a hard time with file / folder names than the pervious iteration.
Its just not picking a lot of the shows that I had no problem with before. I'm already going though and manually renaming folders but is there anyway to get the scan to import a bit easier?
am I missing something?

This time I think I can provide a log. i just did a clear so it should be easier to read and started a scan.
once its done I will post it.

perhaps best killing all the .nfo files and rescan?
