In genius! I don't personally need this but it's nice to know where I can grab a fully ready to go KODI backup! Thanks for all the effort!

One question - will this backup install alongside existing add-ons or will it overwrite them? Thinking it probably won't but thought I'd best check...

This vs. Other Setups

I am curious what about your setup varies from the Hub Wizard pre config setup that the guys at TVAddons.ag maintain?

My Build Wizard

This is my custom setup that has all the popular addons and repos and fully tested based on the silencerom skin optimized for the fire stick.

Recommended clean install of Kodi 15.2

To install-
1. Goto file manager under system then add source
2. Input this URL http://firetvguru.x10.mx/fire then choose done
3. Choose ok (it will auto fill the name)
4. Go back to the kodi main screen
5. Choose System then Addons
6. Choose install from zip
7. Choose the fire folder then plugin.program.fire.zip
8. Go back to the kodi main screen
9. Choose Program the program addons then choose fire wizard
10. Choose Fire TV Wizard then Fire TV Builds
11. Choose Fire TV Build or Fire TV Build Adult Content ( GUI fix is for the skin if it resets )
12. Wait for it to download and extract then agree with the prompts and force close Kodi
13. Open Kodi
14. :D ENJOY!!! :D

3 months ago, when I posted that, I was a user skeptical of a new catchall repo.
Agree,
Always a worry loading in a full set of repos that are not your own..
I haven't looked into any of these setups ...
But if they are promoting the use of pirated streams..and or promote the use of pay for streams then high chance they are violating XDA rules on putting forward links to pirated p2p video streams..
If its all free2air then I have no problem with them..

But a quick view of one of the zips from the last setup posted kinda confirms it...
TVADDONS.....Xunity

OPs post is using XBMC hub..just downloaded the backup zip to check it out..

So note, your kodi install will be getting spammed from the hub notifications..
Easy enough to delete that add-on on.. Suggest you do or you get a popup screen bleating about donating to them
Also note many of the other addons are using pirated streams...

So use at your own risk and be aware of what you are using and the links it uses..
especially if you are in a country that allows monitoring of ISP data..

Note, I am a user of Kodi and have been for over 8 years now..so yes..I do know what to look for and yes I do use it on my fire stick here in Australia...

I have Android tv box and when I try to install Montreal android tv repo no zip files show up. It's blank. I have checked the upgrades.montrealandroidtv.com just to see if I am making errors but zip files not available. Any suggestions?

What exactly do you do with the backup.zip?,... Where should I push it?... the instruction #2 just says to download it, but it never seems to get used.

I just caught this. Thanks for sharing!
My kodi setup is good the way it is but I did download the zip and i like some of the stuff you got. Never done this but would it be possible to just import what i want? Sort of like restoring specific apps & data with Titanium backup?
I cant just restore the whole thing because itll most likely wipe my video sources. Also running mysql so MyVideos93.db needs to remain the same.

    Random repo created by a random user? What could possibly go wrong?

    What on earth are you talking about

    1 - its not a random repo - its a backup of my setup which includes all the best & most common repos and add-ons - install on a fresh version of kodi and you will have pretty much everything setup in a few mins ready to go - saves you adding every repo manually & installing everything yourself

    2 - I'm not a random user - I'm a recognised contributer to xda - I post useful & meaning stuff


    If you choose not to use it or its not something you need just move on please

    I didn't see your post count, so sorry about that.

    BUT, people need to stop replying "if you don't like it, move along." It's a discussion board after all. EVERYTHING should be checked for validity, not just taken as word of God

    Indeed that's why you should try it before commenting or judging

    I'm all up for discussion but I don't like things like this is better than that or negative comments which aren't constructive eg doesn't work as the user hasn't said why or given any information about errors and so on so it's not a useful comment
