        @simonpi Please provide the information required here:

        More importante is this after you launch Kodi:
        /dev/shm/runcommand.log
        Also provide your Kodi log:

          Ok,
          i used a RPI 3 with a 3 A Power Supply and the Original Image from here (4.0.2).
          A Bluetooth Stick and a RII mini x1 and a Sony Playstation 3 Controller . Network via ethernet.

          the log from the 4.0.2 image:
          /dev/shm/runcommand.log

          the folder is empty :/ no log.

          the log from the 4.0.2 image:
          here are my log from kodi

            @simonpi upgrade Kodi. You are on v16 and it crashes with PS3 controllers (or unplug the controller).
