I've got a pihole and ran it on my cax80 so it should be pretty similar.
did you set it up in both the standard internet setup page and on the IPv6 page?
do you have a screen snip of what you're doing and the error? that helps.

Right now, I have more fundamental problems it seems. The Odroid (Pi-hole) wasn't working so I uninstalled everthing, got back to the normal state, then installed it again and again, the Pi itself can't resolve anything. I'm not sure what is going on.

Never ran pi-hole on an odroid. Ran it on a r-pi and in a docker container.
Have you ran pihole before?
Do you have your dns settings setup in the pi-holes settings menu?
You still need a dns resolver, it just filters it.
