Kodi not working on Android box? Let’s see how to fix it

In this post, we shall address the issues related to “Kodi not working on Android box”. There are a lot of complaints reported by users saying that Kodi is not working on android box or loading on Android box. This may be due to one of the reasons provided below. We have also discussed the possible fix for that issue.

Before getting into the topic, I wish to share an information, that is the proper way to shut down Kodi is by clicking on Power icon on Kodi home screen and then click on Exit Kodi. This is the proper way to exit from Kodi. This will take a few second to exit from Kodi, which means that Kodi closes down all the running addons and free the space so that it can start without any trouble. Closing Kodi by clicking on the close button as we do on other apps and not turning off Kodi properly may cause serious problems to your system. Kodi is an operating system separate from Android and like all operating systems it needs to close programs and tidy up its database before switching off. If you were to simply pull the plug on your Windows PC or Mac after you finished with it, you’d very soon encounter very serious problems with your machine.

Because of this Kodi may not start properly as it is used to. Now we shall see how to boot Kodi normally again on Android box.
