CS918 Board CYX_CS918 V2_3 20140510 Need rom (Custom or stock)

[fateddy]

Hi All,
I bought this box to watch AFL Live but had issues so tried to change ROM and now can't get wireless or bluetooth going. I have tried every rom that comes close and the best that I have is Ethernet working.

I have put up the photo in high res of the board, my eyesight is not what it once was and I can't make out the chips. If anyone knows of a firmware that will work or can work out what chips are being used I would really appreciate as I will try to make my own firmware using drivers from numerous firmwares.

If someone can make a firmware I would be even more grateful.

Thanks for taking the time to read the post.

where did you source the unit?

have you tried K-R42 - wasser firmware roms as they cater for this CPU type and wireless - RTL8723AS ?

I got it off **** in Australia.

I tried some wasser roms but will try again just in case.

So the wireless is RTL8723as?

Thanks for the reply.

Yes your wifi/BT chip is RTL8723. You can find it among the two antenna cables soldered on your board.
Here is link for your stock FW

Which custom fw was Working with LAN only?

It was Q7_firmware_by_Vector_RC3.

Some others displayed but had no Ethernet or wireless.

Hope this helps.

The stock firmware is quite ok. Couldn't get the custom to work.

I WANTED TO CHANGE BECAUSE IT IS NOT COMPATIBLE AT THE STORE WITH MANY APPS. DID YOU SPOOF IT?

No. For me not an issue I got it for AFL Live which doesn't run properly so gave it to a friend to use BeyondXBMC that comes pre installed.

DOES ANYBODY HAS CUSTOM FIRMWARE FOR THIS BOX?
THE STOCK FIRMWARE DOESN'T WORK WELL WITH WEB CAMERAS LOGITECH C170,C270,C525.
FINLESS 1.6 THAT I HAVE AT A MK908II WORKS GREAT WITH ALL OF THEM.
IF THERE ISN'T CUSTOM ROM IS THERE A WAY TO ICREASE SUPPORT FOR WEB CAM?
DRIVER OR SOMETHING ELSE?

[fredy3330]

THE STOCK FIRMWARE IS LOCKED CONSTANTLY AT 1.08GHZ. IS THERE A WAY TO DO SOMETHING REGARDING THIS OR A CUSTOM FIRMWARE PLEASE.

New firmware

Hi - I believe this is a newer FW than the one posted. Flashed successfully on my box. Even managed to root it and install a version of CWM.
