I successfully tested several different ROM's on my X96 that on their original hardware would support BT.
Usually the combined WiFI/Bt chips that we find on the S912 boxes and some weird S905 ones.
Since my box does not have any BT capabilities through the hardware I was wondering what would be involved to find a BT stick that actually works on Android and to implement that into a firmware with support for a different BT chip.
I am quite new to the rom cooking stuff and still can't my head around linux thanks to growing up with Windows.
But my thought were somehow like this:
Take a firmware with BT support as a starting point.
Replace the WiFi driver with the match for the box - already done that and works fine.
Do the same with the BT driver - in theory easy too but where to find a driver or the correct libraries to make it work?
All I found so far in terms of poking around in the kernel is that there is nothing for the WiFi or BT in it.
Replace the WiFi folder in the system partition and the stuff just works, well apart from the usual hickups and problems with the framework and ui due to the different hardware.
So in my simple mind I think it should be quite possible to get a BT stick working on our non-BT boxes?
i have buyed a simple Bluetooth Transmitter to connect a Bluetooth Speaker or Headset. Have received for 10€ by Ebay
its just Audio but now i can hear Music in my Garden without cable

Hi guys, I am using my Athena mostly for GPS and music playback. While the Athena has better sound than most other PDAs that I've tried, I think there is still room for improvement. Does anyone know what sound chip (OPAMP) is used? And best can anyone show me a photo of the opamp? I think changing the opamp will improve the sound greatly, as I have tried that on various sound cards on my PC.
Thanks in advance!
well i think its a good idea!
The good old 741 is a decent little OPAMP, if you think you can improve the sound quality by swapping out surface mounted chips you will only ruin the hardware - forget the idea, where do you expect to get any software drivers for the more exotic chip sets? - Mike

Thanks Mike for the info. So you mean it uses a SOIC 741 op-amp? 741 is usually single channel, if I remember correctly. I have no problem replacing surface mount op-amps, as I have done for this sound card :

The original OPA2134UA were replaced by the 3 AD8620. I am hoping that the Athena uses the same SOIC op-amp then it will be easy to swap. I think the op-amp is in the analogue section and should not require any drivers.
I hope someone can show me a clear photo of the circuit board near the headphone output area. Then I will have a good idea whether the op-amp can be replaced.
i was going to buy an bluetooth headset for my htc hero, but before i just wanted to test, whether the bluetooth would work properly. the common datasheets you can find on the internet say that hero supports the bt profile "Headset" so this shouldnt be a problem.
to test the bluetooth-headset-function of my hero, i wanted to use my computer (which has a bt dongle) as the headset. i've done that already before with my nokia n80 and there it worked fine, which means i paired both devices (pc and nokia) and then started the bt service "headset" for the connected phone on my computer. now, that im using htc hero, windows just tells me, that the paired device (hero) has only the active sync service to start (see screenshot).. any idea, what to do?
thx in advance!

common guys.. nobody knows something about this?
Can't help with your specific issue, but my Hero pairs fine with the my Parrot car kit and uses the headset profile.

i tried it on another pc, there it works (see screenshot).. are you able to use your car kit also as a keyboard for typing in numbers or just as microphone and speakers?
I have an old phone laying around and I want to repurpose it.
First thought was a media server, because it has an SD card slot and WiFi connectivity. But it's relatively slow (1ghz and 512mb ram). Would this work and with which software / ROM could i achieve this?
Then i thought i could use it like an arduino but unfortunately we don't have output pins on there.
What would you use your old phone to?
PS: I thought about security cam but nah i dont need that
1GHz 512Mb ram could be enough for a Plex server. What phone do you have?
I use a Galaxy Tab2 as a "HTPC", it can stream 1080p up to 16Mbps and the wifi is the bottleneck: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-2/general/galaxy-tab2-htpc-linux-plex-media-t3596167
Or you can use it to monitor your PC's health status:
- build your own touch screen front panel:
- put the phone next to your keyboard

I previously (a few years ago) had a Sony Xperia RAY (1GHz, 512mb RAM) as my primary phone. I had a 64GB SD Card & Viper 4 Android running a custrom KitKat ROM, so it served as the media player in my car. I also ran navigation software on it, even at the same time. and it was also my phone. It did struggle if I tried switching to another app while navigation was running. I also used it to watch movies (with subtitles on a <4" screen) on my way to work.
I have also used it with a Bluetooth dongle to connect to my ODBII interface of my car, and use it as a real-time monitor of my car.
I pulled this Radio app from an A12 rom for the Oppo A74 India version that is basically the same phone with more memory and storage.
Oppo now uses the same kernel since A12 for all phones with the same hardware chipset, so the ColorOS APPS are all interchangeable between phones and "branding" such as OnePlus.
N200 FM Radio APP
Now you MUST plug something into the 3.5mm Jack as it needs the wire as an antenna. It can be headphones, Earbuds, powered speakers.
Another person I know connected it to his PIE with a 3.5mm extension cable and it worked when he selected the speaker option.
The straighter the cable is the better the reception. Move the cable around as needed.
You can also use "Live Caption" option and it will work with the radio as shown on screenshot.

Thanks! I remember I had this kind of thing on one of my old Samsung phones. It isn't too much use for me but it's definitely cool!
Awesome, thanks! Much appreciated... Although I've been satisfactorily using Transistor after the update to A12, nothing is quite the same as tuning in to OTA FM radio...
Is there a reason that the APK file is in a telegram channel and not a posted as an attachment here? Can someone mirror the APK somewhere that allows anonymous downloading, or post it here?
EDIT: Made an account to download the APK. It is attached to this message.
Box seems "HS 9 PRO", not sold anywhere ... I was able to flash another firmware (In fact, 5-6 firmware "works" for those looking H6_4_32_20191114, X10puls, Tanix H6, Qplus H6) *BUT*
1) Wifi XR819 doesn't work (can live with that)
2) Remote doesn't work which is a pain for ON/OFF (mainly "ON" lol)
Supposed to be, Quad Core A53, Mali450 or Mali720 GPU... I used PhoenixProUSB to flash the images, as said, quite a few worked (I've been trying for 2 days zillions of IMG)
I would gladly put back the original firmware but I have no clue where to get it... Anybody know this box? Underneath, nothing relevant "STB model: HS_PVR_Pro_Dec_2020"
Here's the box (works with X10Plus firmware) and remote (that doesn't work). I can use a USB keyboard but can't turn ON the box.

Also, found out the remote is controlled by a chip "MT908" if I could do something with this, would still be happy (mainly for ON/OFF button lol) but I think it's just the chip and not related to the config of it :|. Anyway, any help is welcomed otherwise it's a bit useless my "4k pro" box
Looks like i'm out of luck :|
any idea on what the remote could be? I could at least use another firmware to enable the remote. Also, possible to install the wifi card in any way? I'm rooted but stock Android 9.0
