This guide will show you how to install and setup the Panel Style Home Screen Widgets by Warner306 for the Aeon Nox 5 skin. This mod adds panel-style widgets and ExtendedInfo content to the default Aeon Nox 5 skin.
The panels in this mod can be added to the home screen of your Kodi device using the standard menu customiser included with the skin. There are two xml files that must be replaced and one edit made to the variables.xml file.
It takes just a couple of minutes to do this and is a great mod for people who use the standard Aeon Nox 5 skin

- The files will say they already exist; allow them to overwrite the old ones
- Install Extendedinfo Script from the Kodi Repo if you don’t already have it (SYSTEM > Add-Ons > Install from Repository > Kodi Add-on repository > Program Add-ons > Extendedinfo Script)
- Open variables.xml (in the 1080i directory you just placed the previous 2 xml files) and replace the WidgetListContent variable (line 408-417) with the variable that is in the 3rd xml file that was in the zip (the text in that file says line 392 but I found it on 408)
- Open Kodi and go to the skin settings and setup a widget for a main menu entry and you can choose from any of the widgets listed above
