Android 8.1 for RK3368 will be released around end of Jan 2018 if RK keep to their schedule.
Then I will have to make lots of changes to try to get it to boot on this specific device, every RK3368 box uses different internal components and drivers.
Every OS update also brings new problems that didn't exist before.
I will only know when RK finishes Oreo and I start to build new ROM's for RK3368, RK3328 if it can work.

HI ,

WoW if this really will happen and not ends like the promised A7 for RK3288 from Ugoos ,

like Ugoos says RK did not finished the SDK for them , or similar . This would be great for

our RK3368 Boxes .

Would love to see Oreo on my Alfawise. But won't cry if I won't.

Still this statement by Ugoos is only to distract attention from them. RK3288 started with 4.4, so 6.0 was goo accomplishment for nonQualcomm or Exynos chip.
And it was probably coz of Google's choice to not allow update to 7.0+ for devices with GPU without support for Vulkan API (they broke that rule with update for first gen Android One). So it would make RK3288 on the same level as Qualcomm 800/801.

It is. But Google still controls their apps (Play Store etc) and they are important for the end user, so Google may (may and does) control manufacturers that way. I know that there are a lot manufacturers who don't add GApps to their devices (mostly meant for market in China), but market is more global now and global users needs GApps. So manufacturers need permission from Google to include them.
And as global manufacturers (global meaning more important) of the devices won't update them (coz of no possibility to include GApps), than there is no need for components' (mostly SoC) manufacturers to support newer Android versions, as they won't be sure if it make any profit (they won't get paid for unofficial Roms).

That way, of course indirectly, Google can control Android, even as it's "open source". However being open source, it's possible for devs to create unofficial updates. However if You look into most know Roms (Resurrection Remix, Carbon, LineageOS) You will se that they don't include GApps (they have to be flashed separately). That way there is no problem with missing Vulkan API and need for permission from Google.

Yes, I understand this. I thought that just because this fw is for rk3368 device, it could still be installed on TV box just for testing

The firmware is install and flashed without problems, but there is no output image HDMI, no possibility to change ROM due to the bootloader.

I see. Thanks for letting me know.
