How to flash or patch custom kernel in Remix OS?

Hi, I just got everything working nicely on my Dell Inspiron 580. I am running rooted Remix OS 3.0 MM 64-bit and I am trying to use a TP-Link usb Wireless Adapter RTL8188EUS which I am assuming is a Realtek Chipset. So I am wondering, is there a kernel or patch that will get it working? How do we flash or compile kernels in Remix OS? The wireless is my only stumbling block to make this into a Media PC. Any suggestions seriously appreciated
You can look at this:

After you have a ready custom kernel file, you can just replace the old one in ISO or in already installed location.

Excellent. I appreciate the response i have helped with development in other projects i would like to help with Remix OS if possible. I will likely do what i can with my linux box this weekend. Do i need to change permissions on the new kernel? i am going to backup the kernel i have now before i start changing too much ? Thank you @Vioner ill let you know if i can get it working

Console AMlogic based computer (TV BOX) with stock android.

Hello there,
I am looking for a Android TV box with vanilla stock android. Are there any available and for sale? I tried searching everywhere but could not find any. The reason I am looking for one is, because I am looking for a development machine and deployment machine for apps. The machine will have to work with different hardware (USB) and I will have to recompile the kernel and need to modify HID drivers anytime.
Most distributions on AMlogic devices make use of custom kernels and some modifications are just plain bad and half done, not to mention the half rooted quirkiness on some devices with modified rom versions.
So is there an TV Box like device available with clean vanilla android out of the box? I really hope someone could help me with my search.
Thanks in advance and really appreciate this community.

A few questions

Hello I am Jimmy and I am starting on ROM development for mobile and PC. I have a few doubts regarding that.
1> Android-x86 Oreo is the latest build on their website, But roms like Bliss, they ported Pie on PC. How to do that? I mean how to get Android-x86 pie?
2> How much average time does it take to compile the source of Android(both x86 and arm64)? [Specs for consideration: Intel Core i7-8750H 2.2 Ghz 6 cores, 16 GB RAM, Ubuntu 18.04 ]
3> What IDE/Development softwares should I use for modifying the original source code that is? Android Studio? Netbeans? Notepad++? Or what??
And a question not regarding development:
I have a device lying around my drawer. My bro used to use it until he bought a new one. Its LAVA Z60 which is based on MTK MT6737 chipset. I researched but found out that there are very few MTK devices with custom roms. Is LAVA Z60 one of em? And if so, where to get the Device Tree, Vendor, Kernel etc.. for the device? Also, note that MTK Droid tools does identify the device, but I cant create scatter file cuz there is just one item on the list with location and every other thing as 0.
Soo.. yeah thats all. Please help me if you can. Thanks in advance.

Making an own android image?

Hello everybody. I love this community and I have been lurking for a long time.
I have noticed on a foreign language forum that some people were offering a custom rom for my android 9 TV box.
The chinese box is based on a s905x3 CPU and has a mediatek wifi chip for which it is hard (if not impossible to find the wifi drivers).
The site claims that the image was made by modifying the stock rom that came with the box. Is this possible or do all custom roms need to be build from the source?
The custom rom I want to make is going to replace the launcher with kodi.
I am prepared to build the whole rom from source but I do have a couple of questions.
Since the mediatek wifi drivers cannot be found how would I go about including the binary for the wifi?
I have noticed that the box that I have uses a .ko (kernel object) module to drive the wifi chip.
Can I include these kernel objects in build? It is a shame that the kernel is built as a 32bit system. Would that mean that I can only compile a 32bit kernel if I were to reuse those kernel modules and binaries?
Another idea is to perhaps use the kernel from coreelec in my build since it seems to include a lot of drivers.
Is it possible to use a kernel from something like coreelec but use the source from AOSP for the rest of my build?
Is there anything else that I should be aware of?
Thank you all!!!!
Can anyone give me any hints to any of the questions?
Essentially I want to swap out the stock launcher for Kodi. What is the easiest way to do so?
