Download Cristal Azul 3.0.8: the new version of the Kodi add-on that solves the 404 error.
Is Crystal Azul not working on Kodi and showing you the 404 error? It is a bug that the developers of the add-on themselves have recognized, but luckily there is a solution. In record time, the creators of this add-on to watch football on Kodi have released a new version (3.0.8) that solves the error, although it comes with some limitations compared to the previous version. We will tell you all the details soon.
UPDATE: Cristal Azul developers have updated the add-on to version 3.0.8. We have made the necessary changes to the article so that you can install this latest version.
Why did Cristal Azul stop working and what does error 404 mean?
In an official statement published on their news channel on Telegram, the creators of the Cristal Azul add-on revealed that they had been victims of a computer attack, the authors of which are unknown. This caused the add-on to stop working for a few hours because all the content on the server where it was hosted was deleted.
Therefore, Kodi displayed error 404, which is an HTTP status code indicating that the server could not find the requested resource. In the case of Cristal Azul, this means that the addon cannot access the source from which it obtains the streaming links.
The attackers also deleted the account where the Cristal Azul repository was hosted, which prevented the developers from “auto-updating” the plugin to quickly recover from the attack.
Fortunately for users of this add-on, the Cristal Azul error 404 has already been solved with the release of a version. Of course, Cristal Azul 3.0.8 was made from scratch due to the attack, so it has less content, although the developers promise that they will add more over time. They assure us that they will recover all the content sooner or later.
How to download and install Cristal Azul 3.0.8 on Kodi: the solution to error 404
Cristal Azul 3.0.8 is the latest version available, and the only one that works, of this add-on to watch free content from Kodi. We could say that it is in the beta phase because its developers are still working on it. However, you can now install it by following these steps:
- Firstly, follow this tutorial to install Luar on Kodi if you don’t have it already.
- Once you have it, open Luar from Add-ons > Program Add-ons.
- Click on By categories.
- Select Sports.
- Click on CRISTAL AZUL 3.0.8 and then on Install.
Wait a few minutes for it to install and that’s it. You can now enjoy the content of this incredible add-on again! You can also download the Cristal Azul 3.0.8 ZIP file to install it directly on Kodi without using Luar (it is done from Settings > Add-ons > Install from a .zip file).
Keep in mind that this version of Cristal Azul has much less content than the previous one since the content of its servers could not be fully recovered after the attack. Anyway, we hope that this article has been useful for you in solving the Cristal Azul error code 404 on Kodi.
