When I run airodump-ng to scan Wi-Fis around me, I get no output, like there's nothing around me. I have a Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 adapter that's integrated in my laptop (Dell Inspiron 15) and i'm running Kali Linux 64 2019.1 here's the airmon-ng output:
airmon-ng start wlan0

Found 3 processes that could cause trouble.
Kill them using 'airmon-ng check kill' before putting
the card in monitor mode, they will interfere by changing channels
and sometimes putting the interface back in managed mode

  PID Name
  550 NetworkManager
  602 wpa_supplicant

i have tried airmon-ng check kill but it didn't work, when i run airodump-ng, here's what i get:

with channels switching, i have tried using 1 specific channel yet i found not ports with this solution either. I have also noticed some error messages when i boot linux related to the network driver:
ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: firmware: failed to load ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:02:00.0.bin (-2)
firmware_class: See http://wiki.debian.org/Firmware  for information about missing firmware
ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: firmware: failed to load ath10k/cal-pci-0000:02:00.0.bin(-2)
ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: firmware: failed to load ath10/QCA9377/hw1.0/firmware-6.bin (-2)
I also confirmed that my network adapter supports monitor mode using iw list and monitor mode appears in the list:
Supported interface modes:
		 * IBSS
		 * managed
		 * AP
		 * monitor
		 * mesh point
		 * P2P-client
		 * P2P-GO
		 * P2P-device
