Download the Kodi apk you want to use. Download a program called adbfire. You need to have the 'ADB debugging' and 'apps from unknown' set to ON in the developer options from the FireTv settings - system menu. Set up ADB following the many youtube videos showing how to do so. Once you get that up and running and connected to the Android box, open the 'console' and type in the following:
adb install -r C:/this will be the path where you saved the Kodi apk. (Example: adb install -r C:/users/Fido/downloads/kodi.apk)
The -r is very important as that is telling adb to REPLACE the xbmc version that you're using with the new Kodi version you want to use without having to delete anything and keeping all your previous settings. restart kodi from "Applications - Manage All Installed Applications' from the firetv "settings" menu and your upgrade will start. If you get stuck let us know and we'll try to help you out.

I would recommend Kodi 15.0 Isengard RC 2

Don't use beta releases...very unstable

As Kodi is upgraded so are some of the addons. Some addons will not work anymore for older versions of Kodi because they have been upgraded to be used on Isengard. As suggested above, use the RC 15.0 Isengard version.

Novice at this but why not just uninstall the old kodi in settings?

I believe that doing it that way will preserve all his apps and settings. Then when it's done they will update.

Exactly. If you uninstall (instead of replace) and then install, all your settings etc, are wiped out and you would have to install all your addons again. Basically starting from scratch. If you replace, all your settings and addons are still there and there is no need for you to do anything else.
