Yes I read about terminal app, but maybe there could be another solution? (like rashr OR chainfire flashtool?)

Did not try cable. But seems like the RTL combo chip is not that supported :-( ...

Read posts from Xannytech facing issues with that chip, I guess even superceleron who ran into trouble and could not get bluetooth to work..

Maybe stupid question: I got device with RTL 8723 BS chipset. Nothing works neither wifi nor bluetooth. Any way getting that to work?

Possible to flash TWRP via flashr or something else? Or just teminal?

You can also write to the memory card twrp and insert into the box hold the reset and turn on the box .

But I will be facing same issues...driver related :-( ...

Here i wrote that you can write twrp using the Root rashr flash tool program.Drivers for yyou wifi chip should be added to the vendor section.

Oh ok, thank you very much, I missed that...

I took a closer look on how to add drivers. I forgot about projrct treble which makes this easier.

But I according to what i read I cannot just add drivers. They must fit to the kernel..

Do the drivers get called automatically? I guess I have to make a script?

If you can better make a kernel with the support of your wifi.Source and kernel on the Amlogic website.Or ask for Lewy.

In link 3 there is a download from RTL 8723bs.

Thanks! Maybe misunderstanding.

The TX7 BT fix works for me!! Now I have BT and wifi! Before I had wifi only using PoisonATV.

I just wonder If there is a wifi patch for Oreo rom since I do not have connection and RTL 8723bs seems to be combo chipset.

Ive not tried the patch on oreo yet..

It is necessary to transfer these drivers to Oreo vendor section.

You already mentioned that fact.

If you are interested here ,there is an instruction for creating armbian ubuntu.You can also add drivers to the kernel which you need.I did it easily and. does not require a lot of knowledge.
