The first major update for BW16 RTL8720 is here!
Changelog:

New : Now supports LittleFS, this unlock the full potential of RTL8720's Flash Memory to allow flexible file and configuration handling.
- LittleFS can automatically adjust the partition based on SPI Flash size. Only tested on 4 MB variant.
New : Redesigned UI. Added 4 additional themes.
New : Completely rewritten web server architecture. Now switching from static server-based rendering to more dynamic client-side rendering. This allows more responsive UI while reducing chance of random crash.
Adjust : Improved the chance of digital clock appearing.
Adjust : Handshake Capture is now runs better :
- Now waits for M1 + M2 + M3 + M4 frame for it to complete instead of blindly waiting for four any Mx Frame.
- If the frame buffer is full, it will flush the frame buffer cache and reattempt to do fresh capture again.
- PCAP file now is stored in LittleFS and can be downloaded anytime.
Fixed : Sometimes Admin Page stuck after pressing restart button.
New : NETHERCAP Flasher is now based on rewritten Python code and does not rely on image_download_tool_windows.exe. This means :
- Reduced the chance of executable to be detected by antiviruses.
- More resilient by bumping retry attempt from 6 to 128
- It now records timeouts. Having timeout means the CH340 chip is bad and needs to be replaced
- It now have better UI and detailed progress status info.
I have made a web-flasher at https://nethercap-web-flasher-v2.vercel.app/. This site is free to use by any developers who have problems flashing their firmware. This website is not a flasher for NETHERCAP firmwares.
