5.0.5 breaks a lot???

Hi all
Sorry if this is a repeat but hope not.

My AFTV updated to 5.0.5. Claims an installed date of 21 Jan 16, but only recently have I noticed a number of issues, so not sure why they took so long to show up, unless 21 Jan is actually the 5.0.5 build date, rather than install. So here's what I've found (on Fire TV and stick - got both).

1. First Llama stopped working - I used LLama events with Condition/Action setup to start Kodi whenever I started Ikono (and switched logos). Testing the condition appeared to work, i.e. Kodi fired up but the difference was that in the test BEFORE you used to see Ikono fire up for a few seconds then switch to Kodi. After the 5.0.5 the test just fired up Kodi. And then when you start Ikono in the normal way, Kodi does not fire. Same for all my other "shortcuts".
2. Wukong: would not work for a while, the mouse pointer showed up by clicks did not fire off any action on AFTV side. A few reboots and messing around solved it but even now a bit flakey, compared to solid before.
3. Side-loading: cannot side-load apps now! Can connect via ADB, but running "adb install xxxxxx.apk" results in a:
error: device not found
- waiting for device -
4. Apps that update themselves, e.g. ShowBox, are failing (probably for the same reason as 3)

So is this common? I'm assuming Amazon have put in a range of changes to lock-down the device? Are there any workarounds / fixes?
