Giammarco Marzano	0de6a3339f	ipq40xx: Add ZTE MF289F ... It's a 4G Cat.20 router used by Vodafone Italy (called Vodafone FWA) and Vodafone DE\T-Mobile PL (called GigaCube). Modem is a MiniPCIe-to-USB based on Snapdragon X24, it supports 4CA aggregation. There are currently two hardware revisions, which differ on the 5Ghz radio: AT1 = QCA9984 5Ghz Radio on PCI-E bus AT2 = IPQ4019 5Ghz Radio inside IPQ4019 like 2.4Ghz Device specification -------------------- SoC Type: Qualcomm IPQ4019 RAM: 256 MiB Flash: 128 MiB SPI NAND (Winbond W25N01GV) ROM: 2MiB SPI Flash (GD25Q16) Wireless 2.4 GHz (IP4019): b/g/n, 2x2 Wireless 5 GHz: (QCA9984): a/n/ac, 4x4 HW REV AT1 (IPA4019): a/n/ac, 2x2 HW REV AT2 Ethernet: 2xGbE (WAN/LAN1, LAN2) USB ports: No Button: 2 (Reset/WPS) LEDs: 3 external leds: Network (white or red), Wifi, Power and 1 internal (blue) Power: 12 VDC, 1 A Connector type: Barrel Bootloader: U-Boot Installation ------------ 1. Place OpenWrt initramfs image for the device on a TFTP in the server's root. This example uses Server IP: 192.168.0.2 2. Connect serial console (115200,8n1) to serial connector GND (which is right next to the thing with MF289F MIMO-V1.0), RX, TX (refer to this image: https://ibb.co/31Gngpr). 3. Connect TFTP server to RJ-45 port (WAN/LAN1). 4. Stop in u-Boot (using ESC button) and run u-Boot commands: setenv serverip 192.168.0.2 setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.1 set fdt_high 0x85000000 tftp openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-zte_mf289f-initramfs-fit-zImage.itb bootm $loadaddr 5. Please make backup of original partitions, if you think about revert to stock, specially mtd16 (Web UI) and mtd17 (rootFS). Use /tmp as temporary storage and do: WEB PARITION -------------------------------------- cat /dev/mtd16 > /tmp/mtd16.bin scp /tmp/mtd16.bin root@YOURSERVERIP:/ rm /tmp/mtd16.bin ROOT PARITION -------------------------------------- cat /dev/mtd17 > /tmp/mtd17.bin scp /tmp/mtd17.bin root@YOURSERVERIP:/ rm /tmp/mtd17.bin 6. Login via ssh or serial and remove stock partitions (default IP 192.168.0.1): # this can return an error, if ubi was attached before # or rootfs part was erased before. ubiattach -m 17 # it could return error if rootfs part was erased before ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N ubi_rootfs # some devices doesn't have it ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N ubi_rootfs_data 7. download and install image via sysupgrade -n (either use wget/scp to copy the mf289f's squashfs-sysupgrade.bin to the device's /tmp directory) sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-...-zte_mf289f-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin Sometimes it could print ubi attach error, but please ignore it if process goes forward.

Place mtd16.bin and mtd17.bin initramfs image for the device on a TFTP in the server's root. This example uses Server IP: 192.168.0.2 2. Connect serial console (115200,8n1) to serial console connector (refer to the pin-out from above). 3. Connect TFTP server to RJ-45 port (WAN/LAN1). 4. rename mtd16.bin to web.img and mtd17.bin to root_uImage_s 5. Stop in u-Boot (using ESC button) and run u-Boot commands: This will erase RootFS+Web: nand erase 0x1000000 0x800000 nand erase 0x1800000 0x1D00000 This will restore RootFS: tftpboot 0x84000000 ${dir}root_uImage_s nand erase 0x1800000 0x1D00000 nand write $fileaddr 0x1800000 $filesize This will restore Web Interface: tftpboot 0x84000000 ${dir}web.img nand erase 0x1000000 0x800000 nand write $fileaddr 0x1000000 $filesize After first boot on stock firwmare, do a factory reset. Push reset button for 5 seconds so all parameters will be reverted to the one printed on label on bottom of the router Signed-off-by: Giammarco Marzano <stich86@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Lech Perczak <lech.perczak@gmail.com> (Warning: commit message did not conform to UTF-8 - hopefully fixed?, added description of the pin-out if image goes down, reformatted commit message to be hopefully somewhat readable on git-web, redid some of the gpio-buttons & leds DT nodes, etc.) Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@gmail.com>	2022-09-24 23:53:53 +02:00
