I have the firestick, not the 4k. I have installed Kodi 19.3 from Troypoint apk installer. I go to add the crew I put in the address. I have checked the typing so many times I have the address memorized by now. Then I put the name I want to call it, then a message pops up unable to connect to server. I have checked my internet connection, I’m getting a very fast download and upload speed.
I have uninstalled Kodi and reinstalled. I’m now at a loss as what to do. When the error message comes up it asks if I want to include the name in the list.
I’m rather new to this, so…what am I doing wrong. I have clicked the button to load unknown source.
A couple of thoughts
Make sure you have enough storage on your device to complete the install. Clear cache of your apps and uninstall any unused apps.
What are you naming the package? Try “crew” (without the quote marks)
Then restart your device.
It’s possible the crew repo is down right now. But if not, clear the Kodi app data and cache then uninstall. Reinstall again and you’ll be guaranteed to have a fresh copy because you deleted the app data. Idk why you’d download 19.3 instead of 19.4 though. Once you have Kodi installed make sure you allow installation from unknown sources. If you are still getting an error and the repository is still active then you are definitely entering something wrong. Check some other instructional pages and make sure they have the same web address. Pay attention to http vs https. And if there’s a / at the end don’t skip it.
I have tried installing the crew for about four days, at different times and always get the same message. I have to have a setting wrong in Kodi or somethng.
I followed your video to the letter, checked my spelling three times and still get the unable to connect pop up. I then tried another add on from troypoint and get the same message. I’m using kodi 19.4 I changed the locations on my vpn, even turned it off and I get the same thing. I’m using the 1st gen firestick.
Have you tried a complete power down of the stick, unplug it from your HDMI port unplug the power, wait for a few minutes, 2-3, then plug it back into the hdmi port, plug the power back in, being sure you’re plugged directly into house power and not a USB port on the TV, Fire it all up and see if the problem has cleared.
Hi Bill. Make sure that you are entering a colon ( : ) and not a semi colon ( ; ) for the crew address. The keyboard on Kodi does not show the color until you hit the key that turns the keyboard to capitols. I have had this problem several times on account of poor eye sight.
Just installed Kodi on my pc. 19.4 64 bit version and followed your set up guide and get the same message on the pc. Now wondering even with a vpn (express) the isp isn’t doing something.
