Yes you can install Kodi 16.1 if you don't like Kodi 17. The download is here: http://mirrors.kodi.tv/releases/android/arm/

After installing it find Kodi in Play Store and disable auto-updates for it to stop constant Kodi update available message.

To restore normal Kodi 17 remote behaviour (like Kodi 16), in Kodi, go Add-ons / My add-ons / Peripheral libraries / Joystick Support / Disable

The new kodi version is not really a step forward from my point of view....


Sorry to say but i use archos player (http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=1786.0). If Kodi works like i need it (and archos do it for 95%), i will use it again. But it seems that will last very very very long... :-(

Don't be sorry. Archos is better than Kodi in many ways for managing a local video collection.

Today took the plunge and updated my Q5 pro FW from 1.10 to 2.01 and then to 2.03. I have the below problems on both android 7 vesrions of the firmwares.

Settings is not reponding and have to force close by power
Opening Kodi takes a long time and gives messages Not responding close app or wait.
Chrome not responding (pop up message close app or wait)
Does not play embedded videos or seems to struggle to get them to play in web pages and get constant pop up message to wait or close app
You tube app is not responding, you tube does not play videos and starts, then hangs and crashes. Sometimes struggle to close the app, have to force close.
OTA update does not function, had to update from 2.01 to 2.03 by downloading the firmware and update with a USB - What is the purpose of having these functions in the firmware if they never work.

I will revert to 1.10 at least some of the above basic things were working.
