I've been getting the waiting for external storage message in Kodi on Android 4.2.2, and now it doesn't start (Kodi version 14.2 Helix) After some logcat debugging, I found this on the messages:

D/Kodi ( 6945): External storage = /mnt/sdcard; state = unmounted

But when I check the /mnt/sdcard path it exists and it is mounted.

And I might think this is because of the way kodi checks for the path. I've changed the xbmc.data path in the xbmc_env.properties file located at the /sdcard folder to:

xbmc.data=/data/kodi_data_files
xbmc.data=/mnt/sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files
xbmc.data=/sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files

But not success so far. Any ideas?

  • How about uninstall, run any updates, then reinstall the app. I had a similar problem and it took those steps to get the app reconfigured and recalibrated. It worked! – Agastya Asthana Dec 15 '16 at 03:10

It is probably looking for a previously connected USB drive or SD Card. Either plug the drive in or Go into Settings>Storage and select the drive which is missing and not required. Inside select forget drive / storage. This worked for me.
