I've done that long time ago infact i was the one to get 1.1GB space left with only kodi and es. installed
If you read few posts before this, the latest autoupdate not even include PlayStore. Faizal was helping member to get the store back and some method to install apk.
User who already removed playstore before this do not want faizal's method as the store is taking up space. And supposedly the latest update should provide more space as no playstore is included but no. the firmware getting bigger.
I should have disabled the autoupdate but i dont know how.
TM updated the bloat firmware without any new apps or improvement.
I only have kodi* now (after cleared cache, packages and thumbnail) i also removed astro and the go and es explorer** and the space left = 550MB (pathetic)
*my kodi very much slim version only exodus & quasar addon (not the bloat version : salt/ xfinity)
** i realized that since the iFlix update es explorer is buggy and faulty
Now with only 550MB (sometime go down to only 200MB), my Kodi keeps hang in the middle of movie due to lack of space. I have to on/off the box. DTSHDMA movies will stutter unlike few days ago.
So if anyone else facing this problem did you factory reset? or go to recovery mode and reinstall previous firmware supplied by faizal?
Setting up kodi to my liking is too much work & taking a lot of time, so factory reset is the one i want to avoid.
have you check application manager? kodi use a lot of space.. mine actually around 3-4gb. what you can do is divert the kodi_data to microsd card.. it will clear a lot of space
