Hi, normally if you down load a repo or link go to,
System then Add-ons, Install from zip file then scroll down to Enternal storage and then download. Here you should find any repos or links you have downloaded.

On t8 Box, go to the google play store, download and install ES File Explorer.
When you download, Look at the File Directory, like c:\Downloads

Hope this helps!!! ☺

They won't show in openelec as its sepperate to android. Should show in Kodi if its a repo like Robocop. You can find some other add-ons in the Droidbox store as well, Showbox, Mobdro and movieHD too.
As mrorange2015 said you can find downloads in ES explorer and all the pre-installed apps too.

Don't think you can, but you can add sources in file manager. The Shadowcrew us a good one it has RobinHood project and now Robocop ultimate too.
Can I ask where you found your down loads. Thanks

If you download a file in Android, then copy and paste it in ES File Explorer (this will be installed on all our T8/T8-S device btw) to a memory card or USB device, you can then access this device/card in openELEC. Look in the /var/media folder for the links to external devices I believe.
