Insufficient storage. If you have root try making more space (at least 300MB)

I'm not root as I have the 4.10 version (2019) (rootmy. tv not working) so Any other way to gain space?

Also, How do I gain access to the addon files for installing from my computer after installing Kodi?

There is no other solution. I solved it all with an external Android box.

If you're asking how to install addons, I believe all of /media/developer is mounted in the Dev Mode jail. So as long as you've rebooted at least once since installing Kodi, you should be able to transfer files to the Kodi directory (/media/developer/apps/usr/palm/applications/org.xbmc.kodi) using SFTP. See #179.

I'm having the same problem. I'm sory for the silly question but how (or what I erase to) I make more space? I have root access, I don't need anything else than the basics. The only app installed so far is YouTube_AdFree.

And, thank you so much, this app made everything so easy. :)

Any news here? Did someone try to delete those files from TV as mentioned in https://gist.github.com/throwaway96/e811b0f7cc2a705a5a476a8dfa45e09f#how-can-i-free-up-space-on-my-tv- ?

If you are getting Insufficient Space Error. Go to https://kodi.tv/download/webos/ and Use Development Build v22. Download the IPK and install IPK Manually. If using WebOS Dev manager Click [Install] select the downloaded v22 IPK file.

Closing as this is related to storage issue.
