Ok, I'll try with another hdmi cable. Is there any way that to test if it's the RPi?

Yes, there is:

Stop Kodi and start cec-client (if it is not already installed, you have to install package cec-utils) and connect your TV-Remote with the Pi.

Then you have to see output like this when pressing buttons on your remote:

Terminal

root@kmxbilr2 /usr/local/share # cec-client
