Step 1: Install the Repository

  1. Download the Doemela Repo ZIP file to your device (or use a USB stick).
  2. Open Kodi and navigate to Add-ons.
  3. Click the Box Icon (Add-on Browser) in the top-left corner.
  4. Select Install from zip file.
    • If prompted, click 'Settings' and enable 'Unknown Sources', then go back.
  5. Locate and select the repository.doemela-x.x.x.zip file.
  6. Wait for the "Add-on installed" notification.

Step 2: Install WireGuard VPN Manager

  1. While still in the Add-on Browser, select Install from repository.
  2. Choose the Doemela Repo.
  3. Navigate to Program add-ons > WireGuard VPN Manager.
  4. Select Install.
  5. Once the installation is complete, the Setup Wizard will launch automatically to guide you through the initial configuration and token import.

Tip: Installing via the Repository is the recommended method. It ensures you receive automatic updates for bug fixes and new Raspberry Pi 5 performance optimizations as soon as they are released.

3. Critical: Uninstallation

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Because the background watchdog runs at the OS level (Systemd), Kodi cannot remove it automatically.
