Only for rk3066 or rk3188 devices.
I had other thread about compiling drivers. But it was chaotic (my fault cause I never expected so many request) and the information was very difficult to find. So i will try to mount a new thread with all the things a little more organized, and I hope that info will be easy to find, so if anyone comes here I hope he finds some useful information easy, so please your collaboration is needed here, please follow this steps i will give you.
To compile the drivers for wifi dongles, ethernet-usb adapters and other devices I need some information about those devices, and I will try to compile them but no guaranties of they will work, the mmost devices will have linux sources who can be used to compile for android with a cross-compiler and the kernel sources compiled, android is based on linux, but is not pure linux, and this drivers sources are designed to work in linux, so expect a lot of fails and some successful drivers.
To install this drivers you need your device rooted, busybox installed (Almost all custom roms come with this by default, if you have a stock rom, I suggest to install a custom, they are way better than stock roms) and Terminal emulator from market installed (It is a free app, and it will give our android devices a console to work).
The information I need is:
1 What is your stick?:
2 What is your rom?:
3 What is your kernel?:
4 Id of the device you want the drivers been compiled and the commercial name.
5 Main chipset of the device:
6 Link to the driver that comes with the device (if you have it):
I will try to explain how get all those info:
1. Easy the name of the tv stick or tablet you have: For example mk808 original
2. Name of the rom you have installed, for example Finless rom 1.7a
3 In terminal emulator write "uname -a" then you will gor the full info about the kernel you are using
4. In terminal emulator write "lsusb" with the device you want the drivers been compiled connected, and you will get some numbers like 04fc:0801, This is the device id, and will be very useful for me in some situations to find the more update sources for it.
5. The main chipset is the device technical name, for example rtl8188su and the comercial name is the name that the brand gives to the device, for example: T-link 576
6 In most devices comes with a cd, inside this cd are the drivers for windows, osx and linux sources drivers. If you have them, it will be very usefull for me cause I spend a lot of time searching for driver in the net.
Remember more info you give me, more possibilities of a successful driver compilation.
Once the driver is compiled and tested i need your feedback to check if it works or not, and if not, to I can help you I need some information.
In terminal emulator write without the device connected:
Then connect the device and:
This one only if your compiled driver is for a network device like wifi dongles or ethernet-usb adapters:
To show this you can take a screenshot or photo or simply write what is here.
In your sdcard you must have 2 files dmesg1.txt and dmesg2.txt, give me both.
Of course if someone can compile drivers or found some of them in the net and want to share with us, post them here and I will post them in here.
Please, write in English is not easy to me, and if i try to explain step to step and very clear what info i need to help you, please, give it to me, read the first post and give me the info i required in first post if you want help, if not i must spend a lot of time searching info instead of solving problems. That is bad for the rest of the users.
Thanks.
Remember that i will try to compile them, but some times it will not work or not a way for me to compile it, and be patient, I will try to make them fast, but sometimes I will be making some other things so it can be delayed.
Like always all corrections and suggestions are welcome. And if you can help to do that you are welcome too.
Thanks

Looking a your dmesg we found in early boot:
