ON the target PI3, for example Kodi parameter are not change...

If the file you copied into put_here_to_restore folder gets appendix .working, then restore process has been started in the background.
And after finishing restore process, Kodi will be restarted automatically and the backup will be removed.

So, if your backup file remains on disk, there's something wrong

If you are looking into the code, there are 2 error exits between renaming the file and removing it.

1. Your backup file is wrong (not a valid gzip format)
   
   Code:
   

   gunzip --suffix .working -t $1.working || lz4 -t $1.working || exit 500
2. The restore process fails
   
   Code:
   

   gunzip -cd < $1.working | btrfs receive -v ${tmp_dir}/home
[ $? -ne 0 ] && exit 1

I suppose your backup file is wrong. You should check this first, if you are able to unzip this file manually

I've just tested restore process on my Pi3 test installation, everything works as it should
