8189ETV is supported from the very first builds.

9082xs is not supported yet and the person who compiled the driver in Android firmwares doesn't respond to my requests: 9082xs Driver Source Code · Issue #1 · jolin90/jolin · GitHub

9082xs is not officially supported by Amlogic (1st hand info) so the only way to get the driver is from author/chip manufacturer.

I read script inside jolin repository and I found a file called replace2.sh, in this file I find some function about rename of rtl8189es driver to work with Tilk9082xs, the scripts works, but some txt files are missing in that repo. The missing .txt files defines the rules of sed -i to change functions names. So I follow the breadcrumbs, and I made a repository with this experiments:
GitHub - Akir4d/Tilk9082x: Rtl8189e modified to works with 9082x
Actually the driver recongnize device, and try to initialize:

But I not get any wifi scan....
I need some help...

I want to help who want to bought devices with Libreelec, I bought a devices that not works because sci inc not release any driver of its wifi modules. I bought also an other devices that works perfectly. So I'm here to ask you if your device work, I will add your devices on list below.

Not Works at all:

Unfortunately I don't. I solely rely on code released to the public that anyone can find on the internet.

I wrote to manufactured, let you know. I think that is a good idea make black and white list of devices that can run amlogic libreelec without surprise.

Quote from kszaq

It's not a device tree issue. You have "SCI 9082" chip that is not supported because there are no drivers available for it.

9082 S*it . Do you know a way to get driver from amlogic?

I'm bought Leebox Q1 Master from Amazon, it say amlogic S905X and starts with gxl_p212_1g blob, but wifi not works at all. I guess it's a dts problem. I backup my dts, dmsg from android, dmsg from libreelec and also decompiled dts with dtc (and hex editor, because 2 files in same dts). I'm not so skilled about aml blob. Can one help me to get wifi working, please?

kszaq, I modded your installtointernal in way to also backup/restore original android partitions.
This backups all android partitions as compressed image
in /storage/backup by type "ba" instead "yes" and restore them with:

installtointernal path/to/android/partition/backup

a bit raw, but it works.

My Leelbox Q1 master

Box works with gxl_p212_1g.dtb but wifi not works at all. I grub from android all dmasg, and as I can read uses bcm wifi, so I guess it's a problem of this dtb because I read a comment about from amlogic kernel here gxl_p212_1g.dts at line 385.
I hope this helps to fix issue.

My Leelbox Q1 master

Wifi disappears after update to beta6 of my s905x, only me?
#edit: sorry and nevermind, it's an other problem.

There is a bug in beta5 regarding dvb tuners, update to beta5b. I have the same tuner (avermedia a867) and with beta5b works fine.

Thank you, it works!

hi kszaq,
Something went wrong with beta5 and usb dvb:

AVerMedia HD Volar (A867), firmware dvb-usb-af9035-02.fw and frontend Afatech AF9033 (DVB-T)
and
ITE 9135 Generic, firmware dvb-usb-it9135-02.fw and frontend Afatech AF9033 (DVB-T)

all two not tuning at all.

hi kszaq,
after a short test period I decided to move to my faster SD card, made the backup with LE backup function, saved the fle to USB, made the new card, started, Krypton loaded, started LE restore, it downloaded the selected tar file for a while, asked for reboot, countdown, went back to setting menu, rebooted and... nothing happened. I've got the same empty system...
Is there a way to manualy restore the files from the tar?

You can do with ssh...

Backup by run this script (or line by line without #!/bin/bash):

#!/bin/bash
systemctl stop kodi
systemctl stop service*
cd /storage/
tar cfz settings.tar.gz .config .kodi .ssh
mv settings.tar.gz .update
sync

then move setting.tar.gz to pc from update share, reboot to new system and copy to same share directory of new system, so you can restore with:

#!/bin/bash
systemctl stop kodi
systemctl stop service*
rm -rf /storage/.kodi
sync
tar xzf /storage/.update/settings.tar.gz -C /storage
rm /storage/.update/settings.tar.gz
sync 
reboot

I hope this helps

Paolo

Thank you, very usefull!
I'll add this guide to your tutorial:

Akir4d You need to use MXQ or HD18Q build. m201d build is for devices with 512MB RAM (including fake 1GB RAM).

Thank you! m201d works fine, I just had to change audio setting to alsa/amlogic/spdif, great job!

Open a ssh terminal (you can use putty for windows, just put ip of box on the connection box then user: root, password: libreelec)

If you run from sdcard and not used installtointernal

mkdir /tmp/system
mount /dev/system /tmp/system
cp /tmp/system/etc/remote.conf /storage/.config
reboot

else you can try:

mkdir /tmp/system
mount /dev/system /tmp/system
cp /tmp/system/remote.conf /storage/.config
reboot

I used MXQ firmware, the problem is that vmalloc is a bit stange. I not tried m201d, for sure with HD18Q firmware it don't want to boot.
