Looking for users with no working WiFi or BT

Development

Then at least check if it works or not?

I Tried this on x96 max+ V5 2G 16G. Its getting there the bluetooth was not recognized. The wifi was recognized each router was shown twice but did not connect. I don’t have access to the box at the moment but will dump logs by the weekend.

519

Without log we can’t do anything

I want to add QCA6174 driver for S905, I tried to add QCA6174-AML in /Amlogic/options, but failed to compile. Is there a QCA6174 driver that can be used by Amlogic

522

This is the case: Bqeel M9C Max [S905X/2G/16G];

It will need an adjustment as right now your provider id isn’t supported. I will made a test image tomorrow.

524

It looks like your WiFi chip will not supported ever. The chip manufacturer will not release any sources in public, so no support for chip with ID: 02E7:9082

525

There is only this source available without a known status:

So it might work, but maybe not. You will be able to perform some tests to get this WiFi chip running?

EDIT: it does not even compile, so without any source from the manufacturer there is no way to add a driver for this chip.

527

This firmware does also not exist on old platform. Please make a dmesg | paste with 9.2.8. but I guess there is a older driver used so it is compatible with your hardware.

528

Bluetooth started working out of nowhere on 4.9 kernel, CE 19.4 build, but just shows the name of one device, the others just the address and the connected status.

Now on 9.2.8 legacy:

dmesg: http://ix.io/3UY6

Sorry I took a long time, I was having a problem with the SD Card, I think.

529

That is the diff:
9.2.8

Host SW:4.5.20.037, FW:0.0.0.60, HW:QCA9377_REV1_1

19.4:

Host SW:4.5.20.037, FW:0.0.0.16, HW:QCA9377_REV1_1

No idea why, need to check the QCA firmware

@DiogoSilva please download this tar:
https://sources.libreelec.tv/mirror/qca9377-firmware-aml/qca9377-firmware-aml-1.0.0-3.tar.xz

Extract it local and copy everything to your µSD in folder on your 19.4 µSD:
/storage/.config/firmware/qca9377

Or when you access the CoreELEC device by share it should be in folder COREELEC/Configfiles/firmware/qca9377

So you will have a file as example:
/storage/.config/firmware/qca9377/qwlan30.bin

When you copied all reboot and make a dmesg | paste again.

Were you ever able to this this working? I am trying to get a S905X box with the same WiFi working, but I am having the same issue you described.

532

@wizardknight instead asking a user with not responding you might try the infos I prepared?

533

I just tested CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-20.0-Nexus_nightly_20220507-Generic.img on a A95X-B7N (s905x) box. The onboard wifi did not see any connections at all, and does not appear to be working. I believe this unit uses the QCA9377 wifi chipset.
I am using gxl_p212_1g.

Why reproduce the work, if I can just ask for the outcome? Do you redo the work of everyone else rather than building upon the work already done?

535

Because the user never said if it worked or not?

536

The path COREELEC/Configfiles/firmware/qca9377 does not seem to exist.

Can you confirm that is correct?

537

/storage/.config/firmware/qca9377 does not seem to exist either.

I tried creating the directory you refer to, and extracting the file contents to it. There was no change in the wifi’s behavior.
