They have asked us to log the errors so they can include in a proper release. I do not expect instantaneous fixing. Some things are self fixable like the storage message thing or reverting back to kodi 16.
If you see anything disasterous though be sure to highlight it here.
As i said above, if the release proves a total failure we can ask db to revert us to the previous f/w.
In the meantime, enjoy your first view of kodi 17 (beta) but do not put a build on it, some are not compatible yet. (there is a new skin too, estuary, but the old default skin, confluence, can be downloaded).

First i would like to say BIG THANKS for all users, they are already testing new firmware,i just would like to add some info. before i bought t8 mini i had 3 different models android boxes and there was installed android 6.0.1.Firmware was ok,but problem was with kodi jarvis 16.1 official release.was not working properly with android 6.0.1.Too many times force close or stopped,crashes.This happen on all 3 devices.Kodi 16.1 jarvis run perfect with android 5.1.1.also my friends confirmed same .Maybe this will also help developers from droidbox bring for us new firmware android 6.0.1 ,with perfectly run version kodi ,we could install any build like on android 5.1.1 with kodi 16.1 jarvis. thanks

If Kodi 17 beta is playing up, delete and install Kodi 16.1 from Google play or the official Kodi tv site and see if it runs better. Cheaper than binning the box.

Yes I did download Kodi 16.1 as that new version of Kodi was rubbish , I'd spent ages getting my previous Kodi how I wanted it with the excellent Gen-TEC builds but all that was lost through bownloading that new stupid firmware rubbish , I though they would have least but the old system back up , anyway I'm using my old cheapo Kodi box at least that runs with no crashing etc ,cos this new version is running so long on Kodi 16 on the T8 mini and then it will just stop and go back to the start screen !!!!
