Hi guys. I had the app not installed error on a new box (chinese) how I solved it was by removing the kodi player that came with the box and downloaded the SPMC from google play and then installed v17.1 32bit and hey presto, works.

It looks like a custom build by chinese as i see they call the app KDPLAYER instead of Kodi and also in system info i dont see what version of Kodi is installed, it says Build Complete June 2016.

But through apps installed i can see it is 16.1 version.
