Just unpacked any S905w package and there was bootloader.PARTITION too but really small....bootloader.img taken from TWRP backup is almost 30x larger...

My try was to just rename xxxxx.img to xxxxx.PARTITION, replace and repack.

But what about DDR.USB and UBOOT.USB...can I take it from any x96 mini firmware?

Typically, you can give it a try, as these files are loaded into RAM memory and executed independently during the burn process..

UBOOT.USB (from Minixfreak S905w fw)
BOOTLOADER.PARTITION (renamed BOOTLOADER from original TWRP backup)

No, BL1 is programmed for secure boot, you can only install original vendor FW.
