Amber has the option of having the setup menu as an option of the Quit menu, and it also has the option of removing the Setup menu from the main menu. I mistakenly did the latter without enabling the former. How can I now get into setup to get it back into some part of the menu?

I've gone through every part of the UI, trying context menus etc. but no luck. This is Kodi 17.3 (Krypton) on a Minix Android box, which I haven't rooted, so I don't have shell access either. Suggestions?

did you try going to the quit menu?

With this configuration, I do not seem to be able to get a quit menu, just the single Quit item without a menu.

Hi, this is probably because you set the Quit item to a specific action e.g. Quit. I've submitted a pull to Jester to make sure if the only way to get to Settings is via the Quit item then it will always show the Shutdown menu, so hopefully will be in 3.0.8 when released and you;ll have access again then.

I installed the Terminal Emulator for Android (I had been under the incorrect assumption that you needed to have rooted the device to be able to use it) and compared settings to my other Kodi/Amber setup on a Raspberry Pi. I then edited the configuration file addon_data/skin.amber/settings.xml to change

Code:

<setting id="Settings.Hide" type="bool">true</setting>

to

Code:

<setting id="Settings.Hide" type="bool">false</setting>

Which I believe was the critical change (I did other changes also, and forgot to make a backup, thinking myself such an old hat on Linux). Thanks to everyone for your help!

Thanks, this seems like a good sanity check item.
