8723xx - still not work bluetooth on this version of firmware, Xannytech. Why this chipset is not excluded from your list of supported chipsets, I dont understend. Few month ago more people talking about problems with 8723 on your firmware. Why you dont want to hear us, or dont want remove this chipset from your list of supported chipsets? Please arrange this list, Because people see their chipset in your post, Install your firmware and have more problems with not worked wifi, bluetooth etc.

Dear digitalriver,
i do not own a device with 8723XX chipset, but the base rom i used (different one) has support for it in libs and kernel so i supposed it is working.

I cannot do any test nor users do tests for me when i ask for them, so i cannot be aware that it's not working in 2.8 version.

But if you found a Rom developer that can build a working rom for your device feel free to use it.

I don't like to be offended nor i'd like to cause offence for the user, just remember i did and do this work for free, i'm not the one who sell the device to you, i'm not the manufacturer, i don't work for them, i did this rom for MINI M8S II the other working box are a plus, but i tried to solve all the problems also on other systems, and i tried to gave support to more chipset.

I share my work to just help other users... YOU DO NOT OWN ME, YOU DO NOT PAY ME!!!!! I DO NOT WORK FOR YOU!!!!!

But to avoid any problem caused to the users with different wifi chips, thanks to your report, from now, i will not work with and support any chipset different from the one on my personal device AP62x2, but probably this will be also the last public ROM.

Thanks
Xanny

Hi Xanny. Very good rom again.

I have the mini ms8ii in both WIFI versions, AP6212 and AP6212a.

The AP6212 WIFI is perfect.

Like almost all other roms for this box, the AP6212a WIFI drops out, slow speeds or freeze when streaming.

Replace these 4 files in the system/etc/wifi/6212 folder for perfect AP6212a wifi.
Testet on 2 boxes with AP6212a wifi, one with the build in antenne and one modded with a external antenna.

it's funny i removed them and used the one you got in my rom actually, because reading into the code and doing some test, these particular drivers are worse than the one i'm actually using. and i'm using streaming a lot!
Anyway, i'll do some test later and if worth i will include them in next version. Thanks.

[QUOTE=Xannytech;n654793]

ok i provided time ago a zip for nexbox users, probably 4pda posted mine (not sure), so if you know how to flash it back, it's not a problem.
I wrote that to avoid problems, because when a user ask me before how to come back to stock, normally he is scared of custom rom and want to stay on stock.
The reason is the Uboot and Bootloader used by Nexbox are sligtly non standard, so after you flash my rom, you cannot use Nexbox way to flash your stock back.

Just flashed
Excellent, very fast and stable, thanks for good firmware

Could be a problem? But possible?
For previous versions I have seen some prescription: how to return to stock, reading some Russian site (4pda).
It is the same with this version? Or now it could not work?
Actually what is the reason that coming back is difficult? Different bootloader, or partition?
With my another tv box I have experience to flash it with different firmware from other models and then coming back, but in that case it was just stock firmware from other model with similar parameter.

Actually it's what it's done in new 2.8:

Hi Xannytech
Where can I download this 2.8 latest ROM?
Can I flash it (USB) on my Nexbox A95X 2/16 GB Wifi 6330?
Can I return then to stock firmware just flashing regular .img file?
I would like to try this ROM after getting answers on my questions.

Where is here when i'll post it probably today.
Yes, you can flash it on your device, it will work very well but your remote will not be able ti power on the device as side effect.
No, could be a problem to flash back original fw on Nexbox.

[gizmomelb]

Do not mess with dtb.img... what exactly are you doing and why?
Anyway use Amlogic Customization tool and unpack the rom, open Level 1 and you'll found the dtb.

Hi Xannytech - just trying to find one which works with my system when I also try other OS/software like Armbian and LibreElec. But I'll also try v2.8 of your firmware. thank you.
