With Android, I’m still using DVB normally, without any problems. Perhaps I’ll try restoring my Android to factory settings and reinstalling Coreelec to see if that helps.
maybe i expressed myself not precise, this hardware is not compatible with the CE driver.
I disassembled and photographed the DVB tuner, and I found it to be no different from the photo that @taki posted.

I can do nothing if the chip does not communicate with the CPU. Maybe @taki did some additional trickery to make it work.
CoreELEC, what’s the build date of the version? The images you sent don’t open. The front-end power management system (S8035BE) on Mecool motherboards is often burned out. Also, I need a photo of the tuner; it might be different. Send the Android DTS file.
I think you’re using a different Avl 6862 addon. Install the latest daily build, then install Avl6862 from your own repository.
I’m using the latest CE version NO, using the dtb file in the device_trees folder. I’ve installed the AVL6862 add-on from the CE repository.
The UI source management system (S8035BE) is not faulty, as I’m still using DVB on Android without any problems. I’ve tested with both measuring devices and it works fine.
Update file DTB android : I only know how to extract the data from my device.
dtb android mecool k5.zip (44.3 KB)
The problem is that the i2c address is not being read correctly. It was working with the ce no dated 10/30/2025. More precisely, avl6862 i2caddress=0x14. The problem is definitely not in the avl6862 addon. I tried I2C clock speeds between 100-400 kHz (100, 200, 300, and 400) and the result remained unchanged at 0x14. There are two possible scenarios here.
1- This happened as a result of commit patch changes made in the common drivers or the linux-amlogic folder after October 30, 2025, or changes made in pinctrl.
2- Since tuner power and reset gpio are not defined in the dts file, and there is no gpio pull up/down, the av6862 driver is not running correctly, meaning that the trigger voltage is not coming in, so the correct i2c address is incorrect or unstable. In other words, it works sometimes and sometimes it doesn’t. Because I tried it, when it caught 0x14, it attached to dvb correctly.
The second issue seems more likely.

I managed to get the AV2018 tuner and AVL6261C demod working. The signal and channels are working, but I need to optimize the signal level a bit. I’ll share the solution if I can add the existing Media_Tree wrapper. Many thanks to rozpruwacz for showing the solution. I’m investigating why the Mecool K5 is showing the wrong I2C address; it’s most likely caused by a change made on or after October 30th. I’ll share the solution if I can.

I found the avl6221 driver of the old repository in Chewitt’s old 2020 repo and ran it. But tvheadend has a problem. The other drive works fine. Tuner supports dvb s/s2/s2x and multistream.
I have a Tiger receiver with an Amlogic 905x3 processor. I downloaded the latest version of CorelEC22 and installed the tuner profile from the file, but unfortunately, the channels are not working for me.
@taki how did You added this dvb-avl driver to CE ? Have You followed the description in README of this project ? It assumes kernel 3.14 so I suppose it did not worked out-of the box ?

Anyway, basically the demod driver works. The problematic part is not being able to read the correct tuner i2c address after software-based reset. chewitt dvb drivers is based on your wrapper and connects the demod and tuner through the wrapper. I think it works very well. A correction needs to be made to see only the tvheadend signal bar. The edison demod driver does not need dts tuner definition since it connects the tuner automatically. I think this works well too. But due to health problems, I have taken a break from this job. In this way, I learned a lot of C programming languages. I landed on the hello word. I also got help from AI. I think someone who is proficient in C+ language can do this job very easily via AI. I believe you will add a better driver professionally. There is also an i2c 0x15 reading error in the mecool series. There is an error that is not caused by these dvb drivers. dts takes over the pin on the i2c line one node earlier and creates this error.

@rozpruwacz testing patch for “mecool m8s dvb s2/s2x “
branch : ”coreelec-21-amlogic-dvb-demux”
copy to : projects/Amlogic-ce/devices/Amlogic-ng/patches/linux/linux-12-m8s-dvb-s2x.patch
From: CoreELEC DVB port
Subject: [PATCH] arm64: dts: amlogic: add Mecool M8S Plus DVB-S2X device tree
Add DTS for Mecool M8S Plus with Montage M88RS6060 DVB-S/S2/S2X tuner.
Hardware confirmed on live device:
- SoC: Amlogic S905D (GXL, gxl_p231_1g)
- Demod+RF: Montage M88RS6060 (all-in-one), I2C-C bus 2, addr 0x69
- TS: parallel, GPIODV_0..10 (tsin_a)
- Reset: GPIODV_13 (gpio-217)
- Power: GPIODV_14 (gpio-218)
- LNB sel: GPIODV_15 (gpio-219)
Note: Android DTB incorrectly names demod "Avl6211" — remnant of a failed
DVB-T custom ROM port. Actual chip is M88RS6060 per dmesg on live device:
"RS6060 chip, demod id = e2" / "M88RS6060 attached!"
Driver path: aml_m88dm6k_attach() -> m88rs6060_attach()
