Anyway, from the quote there is one interesting line: " CopyFiles = atheros.CopyFiles, atheros_FW_3X.CopyFiles, atheros_BD_TX8.CopyFiles, service.CopyFiles " It seems that there exist just one file with "TX8" in it: "eeprom_ar6320_3p0_TX8_clpc.bin" I copied the .bin file as board.bin to /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/ and it finally works! Wifi is directly working and no error messages anymore in dmesg! :-) So eeprom_ar6320_3p0_TX8_clpc.bin, or the informations of that .bin file have to be added to https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/ath10k/boardfiles and this should be a clean solution, because the subsystem-device=3370 ID is matching. Can someone please double check if this is the correct solution which could go upstream?

The reception with the seven day old one firmware is a bit weaker but it is also working fine with no erros in dmesg!

My problem is that I dont know how to read the board files and modify them because I do not know the encoding they use. Also there have been some updates in the upstream linux-firmware repo. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux- firmware.git/commit/?id=a87eb5f7bac0f70ade57da57d9126d14eee12336 and https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/QCA6174/hw3.0 but they also do not help to get the wifi card working/recognized. Any ideas how to get this solved?
