Looking for users with no working WiFi or BT

Thanks, now w-fi work!
But i have strange things with watching Youtube. After several minutes my speed decrease to few kb/sec or connection lost. Router is near, i am reconfigure them and it start work more stability, but whatever i lost connection after 5,10, 30 minutes. Reboot my device or reconnect to wi-fi solving my problem.
I include all logs (from my router too) in archive - disk.yandex. ru/d/eSV92UyNvHpLNQ
But i think it is no CE problem, and i am read more about my router config

Thank you for testing and confirm the issue is solved!

I realize this is a Mediatek Chipset, but is it possible to get wifi working at least.

Thanks for the support.

Hello!

So I have an X96 Max+ (s905x3) TV-box with that mt7661rsn Wifi+BT chip.

Here’s the related udevadm output:

CoreELEC:~ # udevadm info /sys/bus/sdio/devices/*

E: MODALIAS=sdio:c00v037Ad7663
E: SUBSYSTEM=sdio

Stock Android firmware recognizes the chip as mt7663 and has .bin firmware files for mt7663 and mt7668, so I assume they’re all compatible with each other.
Names of the firmware files I found in Android’s /vendor/firmware:

EEPROM_MT7663.bin
EEPROM_MT7668.bin
fw_usb.bin
mt7663_patch_e2_hdr.bin
mt7668_patch_e1_hdr.bin
mt7668_patch_e2_hdr.bin
TxPwrLimit_MT76x8.dat
wifi.cfg
WIFI_RAM_CODE2_SDIO_MT7668.bin
WIFI_RAM_CODE2_USB_MT7668.bin
WIFI_RAM_CODE_MT7663.bin
WIFI_RAM_CODE_MT7668.bin
woble_setting.bin

Btw, I managed to get bluetooth to work somewhat (NOTE: without using the above-listed files), but it was Manjaro Arm with 5.11.13 linux-vim kernel. Not sure if the dtb I was using can be ported to CoreELEC’s kernels, but I’m attaching it anyway as it might help you to help me lol. And yes, it’s a bit messy.
manjaro-dtb.img (46.2 KB)

I also found this on github, and it seems to be some stolen proprietary firmware from mediatek, but since the repo contains no documentation at all, I have no idea what to do with it.

There’s also an OpenWrt package kmod-mt7663-firmware-ap that might be useful, and maybe I’m stupid or blind or whatever, but I failed to find its sources.

So, how do I get that chip working with CoreELEC? Or, even better, with recent 5.x.x kernels?

If you need more info on system/dtb/whatever — just ask for it.

Thanks.

I just bought a x96 max+ 4+64 a week ago, and my wifi doesn’t work. BT works and ethernet works fine.
Here’s the result http://ix.io/3pOw
Tried 19.1 rc4, 192.2 rc2 9.2.7. Need some help.
Thank you.

I am having the same issue. X96 Max Plus 4/64 running 19.2 rc2. No wireless or bluetooth. It has an FN-Link 6222B-SRB wireless ac and bluetooth module. The product page says it’s an RTL8822BS chipset. I tried running the command in Putty to get the info. But it returns “Unknown device “sys/bus/drip/devices/*”: No such device. Perhaps someone can help. This is a fresh, new install.

There is a new revision for X96 Max+.

It is X96max_plus2_T which using new WIFI chip called AM7256.

Stock firmware for this box available in 4pda forum
(https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=1013103)

Currently seems no support yet from Coreelec team. I hope someone could help on this.
Latest Coreelec works flawlessly except Wifi (as expected). Not tested the Ethernet.
BT seems works but not stable.

udevadm info /sys/bus/sdio/devices/*

Is this putty command?
Sorry to ask, newbie.

How to use this since I cant use putty due to no network connected to the target.

Connect it to ethernet then or uart.

Do a reboot and post dmesg result

dmesg | paste

Here it is not so easy to connect ethernet from router to target. Just now already unplug the setup.

Please state whatever data u guys needed all here.
I can do it all together during free time.

Sorry

Please someone help

Really need WIFI for this new box ::frowning:

PS: Currently I am running old Coreelec version due to some reason

I think your hardware is not supported by current 4.9 kernel. So support is not possible.

Me too

The box seems to be Vermax UHD300X (s905x 2g RAM 8g flash) branded by our local service provider under the name Movix Pro

Bluetooth and WiFi are up, BT pairing and wifi connection are working until reboot only, then no luck to pair/connect again, neither auto nor manual. The only way is to delete the connection and create it again. Yet the box may freeze up during the deletion, search or creation

Also I noticed the duplicated bluetooth MAC address of the paired device: the saved line with the address and below the same one from the scanning. Neither one can be connected to

There are no issues like these when running the original adapted Android 9 firmware: BT/wifi work great
