I am having similar issues with a raspberry pi. Currently running fresh install of Libreelec 8.9. I have installed XBMC.LCDproc and LCDproc. I have found I have two instances of LCDd.conf and have ammended both for i2c, 0x3F, i2c-1. Changed config.txt to include

dtparam=i2c1=on

dtparam=i2c_arm=on

Set LCDproc to HD44780 via Kodi UI.

Display stubbonly refuses to display anything but white squares, not even a corrupted display or flashing backlight. Display does work as I have another RPi running OE. I have managed to get various LCD on 4bit or i2c working on OE but I'm not winning on LE

When I run LCDd -f -c /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/http://service.lcdd/LCDd.conf I get this.

sock_create_inet_socket: cannot bind to port 13666 at address 127.0.0.1 - Address already in use

sock_init: error creating socket - Address already in use

Critical error while initializing, abort.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
