Create Factory image
--------------------
As all installation methods require a U-Boot to be integrated into the
image (and we do not ship one with the image). We are not able to create
an image in the OpenWRT build-process.
Download a TP-Link image for your device variant (CA/EU or RU) from their
website and a OpenWRT sysupgrade image for the device
and build yourself a factory image like following:
TP-Link image: tpl.bin
OpenWRT sysupgrade image: owrt.bin
> dd if=tpl.bin of=boot.bin bs=131584 count=1
> cat owrt.bin >> boot.bin
Installing via Web-UI
---------------------
Upload the boot.bin via TP-Links firmware upgrade tool in the
web-interface.
Installing via Recovery
-----------------------
Activate Web-Recovery by beginning the upgrade Process with a
Firmware-Image from TP-Link. After starting the Firmware Upgrade,
wait ~3 seconds (When update status is switching to 0%), then
disconnect the power supply from the device. Upgrade flag (which
activates Web-Recovery) is written before the OS-image is touched and
removed after write is succesfull, so this procedure should be safe.
Plug the power back in. It will come up in Recovery-Mode on 192.168.0.1.
When active, all LEDs but the WPS LED are off.
Remeber to assign yourself a static IP-address as DHCP is not active in
this mode.
The boot.bin can now be uploaded and flashed using the web-recovery.
Installing via TFTP
-------------------
Prepare an image like following (Filenames from factory image steps
apply here)
> dd if=/dev/zero of=tp_recovery.bin bs=196608 count=1
> dd if=tpl.bin of=tmp.bin bs=131584 count=1
> dd if=tmp.bin of=boot.bin bs=512 skip=1
> cat boot.bin >> tp_recovery.bin
> cat owrt.bin >> tp_recovery.bin
Place tp_recovery.bin in root directory of TFTP server and listen on
192.168.0.66/24.
Connect router LAN ports with your computer and power up the router
while pressing the reset button. The router will download the image via
tftp and after ~1 Minute reboot into OpenWRT.
U-Boot CLI
----------
U-Boot CLI can be activated by holding down '4' on bootup.
Dual U-Boot
-----------
This is the first TP-Link MediaTek device to feature a split-uboot
design. The first (factory-uboot) provides recovery via TFTP and HTTP,
jumping straight into the second (firmware-uboot) if no recovery needs
to be performed. The firmware-uboot unpacks and executed the kernel.
Web-Recovery
------------
TP-Link integrated a new Web-Recovery like the one on the Archer C7v4 /
TL-WR1043v5. Stock-firmware sets a flag in the "romfile" partition
before beginning to write and removes it afterwards. If the router boots
with this flag set, bootloader will automatically start Web-recovery and
listens on 192.168.0.1. This way, the vendor-firmware or an OpenWRT
factory image can be written.
By doing the same while performing sysupgrade, we can take advantage of
the Web-recovery in OpenWRT.
It is important to note that Web-Recovery is only based on this flag. It
can't detect e.g. a crashing kernel or other means. Once activated it
won't boot the OS before a recovery action (either via TFTP or HTTP) is
performed. This recovery-mode is indicated by an illuminated WPS-LED on
boot.

Everything works correctly.
Currently there is no firmware update available. Because of this, in
order to restore the OEM firmware, you must firstly dump the OEM
firmware from your router before you flash the OpenWrt image.
Backup the OEM Firmware
-----------------------
The following steps are to be intended for users having little to none
experience in linux. Obviously there are many ways to backup the OEM
firmware, but probably this is the easiest way for this router.
Procedure tested on M31A3.V4300.200420 firmware version.
1) Go to http://192.168.10.1/webcmd.shtml
2) Type the following line in the "Command" input box and then press enter:
mkdir /etc_ro/lighttpd/www/dev; cp /dev/mtd0ro /etc_ro/lighttpd/www/dev/mtd0ro; ls -la /etc_ro/lighttpd/www/dev/mtd0ro
3) After few seconds in the textarea should appear this output:
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 8388608 /etc_ro/lighttpd/www/dev/mtd0ro
If your output doesn't match mine, stop reading and ask for
help in the forum.
4) Open in another tab http://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd0ro to download the
content of the whole NOR. If the file size is 0 byte, stop reading
and ask for help in the forum.
5) Come back to the http://192.168.10.1/webcmd.shtml webpage and type:
rm /etc_ro/lighttpd/www/dev/mtd0ro; for i in 1 2 3 4 ; do cp /dev/mtd${i}ro /etc_ro/lighttpd/www/dev/mtd${i}ro; done; ls -la /etc_ro/lighttpd/www/dev/
6) After few seconds, in the textarea should appear this output:
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 196608 mtd1ro
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 65536 mtd2ro
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 65536 mtd3ro
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 8060928 mtd4ro
drwxr-xr-x 7 0 0 0 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 0 0 0 .
If your output doesn't match mine, stop reading and ask for
help in the forum.
7) Open the following links to download the partitions of the OEM FW:
http://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd1rohttp://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd2rohttp://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd3rohttp://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd4ro
If one (or more) of these files are 0 byte, stop reading and ask
for help in the forum.
8) Store these downloaded files in a safe place.
9) Reboot your router to remove any temporary file in ram.
Installation
------------
Flash the initramfs image in the OEM firmware interface
(http://192.168.10.1/update.shtml).
When Openwrt boots, flash the sysupgrade image otherwise you won't be
able to keep configuration between reboots.
Restore OEM Firmware
--------------------
Flash the "mtd4ro" file you previously backed-up directly from LUCI.
Warning: Remember to not keep settings!
Warning2: Remember to force the flash.
Notes
-----
1) Router mac addresses:

gateway.
3. Plug in your ethernet to LAN port 1 on the router.
4. Load up the recovery software with the firmware file, but don't press
"Upload" yet.
5. Plug in the router to power WHILE HOLDING the reset button in. While
CONTINUING to hold the button, select "Upload" Continue to hold the
reset button in until it finishes and verifies!
6. If that doesn't work try pressing "Upload" first just before you do
step 5. At some point while holding reset the rescue tool will finally
detect and upload the firmware. That's when you can let go of the
reset button.
7. The router will reboot and not much will happen. Wait a minute or 2.
8. Power off and on the router again. Voila. Set everything your Ethernet
IP back to DHCP (automatically) and you're good to go.
Revert to stock firmware:
1. Install stock image via recovery mode.

When Joowin WR758AC V1 and V2 devices were added, they should have been
added with the primary manufacturer name which is COMFAST, since Joowin
is just an alternate vendor name on some coutries or stores.
Fix this by changing the the vendor name on the respective files and set
Joowin as ALT0 variants while ensuring compatibility for early users.
Also adjust the model names to better follow the naming rules.
As a side effect, fix mt76x8 network script which was left incorrectly
unsorted on the case block conditions.

This commit adds support for Xiaomi MiWiFi 3C device.
Xiaomi MiWifi 3C has almost the same system architecture
as the Xiaomi Mi WiFi Nano, which is already officially
supported by OpenWrt.
The differences are:
- Numbers of antennas (4 instead of 2). The antenna management
is done via the µC. There is no configuration needed in the
software code.
- LAN port assignments are different. LAN1 and WAN are
interchanged.
OpenWrt Wiki: https://openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/mir3c
OpenWrt developers forum page:
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/support-for-xiaomi-mi-3c
Specifications:
- CPU: MediaTek MT7628AN (575MHz)
- Flash: 16MB
- RAM: 64MB DDR2
- 2.4 GHz: IEEE 802.11b/g/n with Integrated LNA and PA
- Antennas: 4x external single band antennas
- WAN: 1x 10/100M
- LAN: 2x 10/100M
- LED: 1x amber/blue/red. Programmable
- Button: Reset
MAC addresses as verified by OEM firmware:
use address source
LAN *:92 factory 0x28
WAN *:92 factory 0x28
2g *:93 factory 0x4
OEM firmware uses VLAN's to create the network interface for WAN and LAN.
Bootloader info:
The stock bootloader uses a "Dual ROM Partition System".
OS1 is a deep copy of OS2.
The bootloader start OS2 by default.
To force start OS1 it is needed to set "flag_try_sys2_failed=1".
How to install:
1- Use OpenWRTInvasion to gain telnet, ssh and ftp access.
https://github.com/acecilia/OpenWRTInvasion
(IP: 192.168.31.1 - Username: root - Password: root)
2- Connect to router using telnet or ssh.
3- Backup all partitions. Use command "dd if=/dev/mtd0 of=/tmp/mtd0".
Copy /tmp/mtd0 to computer using ftp.
4- Copy openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_miwifi-3c-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
to /tmp in router using ftp.
5- Enable UART access and change start image for OS1.
```
nvram set uart_en=1
nvram set flag_last_success=1
nvram set boot_wait=on
nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=1
nvram commit
```
6- Installing Openwrt on OS1 and free OS2.
```
mtd erase OS1
mtd erase OS2
mtd -r write /tmp/openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_miwifi-3c-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin OS1
```
Limitations: For the first install the image size needs to be less
than 7733248 bits.

Specs (same as in v1):
- MT7628AN (575 MHz)
- 64MB RAM
- 8MB of flash (SPI NOR)
- 1x 10/100Mbps Ethernet (MT7628AN built-in switch with vlan)
- 1x 2.4GHz wifi (MT7628AN)
- 1x 5Ghz wifi (MT7612E)
- 4x LEDs (5 GPIO-controlled)
- 1x reset button
- 1x WPS button
The only and important difference between v1 & v3 is in flash memory
layout, so pls don't interchange these 2 builds!
Installation through web-ui (on OEM factory firmware):
1. Visit http://tplinkrepeater.net or the configured IP address of
your RE305 v3 (default 192.168.0.254).
2. Log in with the password you've set during initial setup of the
RE305 (there is no default password).
3. Go to Settings -> System Tools -> Firmware upgrade
4. Click Browse and select the OpenWRT image with factory.bin suffix
(not sysupgrade.bin)
5. A window with a progress bar will appear. Wait until it completes.
6. The RE305 will reboot into OpenWRT and serve DHCP requests on the
ethernet port.
7. Connect an RJ45 cable from the RE305 to your computer and access
LuCI at http://192.168.1.1/ to configure (or use ssh).
Disassembly:
Just unscrew 4 screws in the corners & take off the back cover.
Serial is exposed to the right side of the main board (in the middle)
and marked with TX/RX/3V3/GND, but the holes are filled with solder.
Installation through serial:
1. connect trough serial (1n8, baudrate=57600)
2. setup the TFTP server and connect it via ethernet
(ipaddr=192.168.0.254 of device, serverip=192.168.0.184 - your pc)
3. boot from a initramfs image first (choose 1 in the bootloader
options)
4. test it a bit with that, then proceed to run sysupgrade build
MAC addresses as verified by OEM firmware:
use OpenWrt address reference
LAN eth0 *:d2 label
2g wlan0 *:d1 label - 1
5g wlan1 *:d0 label - 2
The label MAC address can be found in config 0x2008.

The minew g1-c is a smart home gateway / BLE gateway.
A Nordic nRF52832 is available via USB UART (cp210x) to support BLE.
The LED ring is a ring of 24x ws2812b connect to a generic GPIO (unsupported).
There is a small LED which is only visible when the device is open which
will be used as LED until the ws2812b is supported.
The board has also a micro sdcard/tfcard slot (untested).
The Nordic nRF52832 exposes SWD over a 5pin header (GND, VCC, SWD, SWC, RST).
The vendor uses an older OpenWrt version, sysupgrade can be used via
serial or ssh.

For the TP-Link 4M devices with tplink-v2-image recipe
(mktplinkfw2.c), there are two different flash layouts based
on the size of the (u)boot partition:
device uboot OEM firmware OpenWrt (incl. config)
tl-wr840n-v5 0x20000 0x3c0000 0x3d0000
tl-wr841n-v14 0x10000 0x3d0000 0x3e0000
In both cases, the 0x10000 config partition is used for the firmware
partition as well due to the limited space available and since it's
recreated by the OEM firmware anyway.
However, the TFTP flashing process will only copy data up to the
size of the initial (OEM) firmware size. Therefore, while we can
use the bigger partition to have additional erase blocks on the
device, we have to limit the image sizes to the TFTP limits.
So far, only one layout definition has been set up in mktplinkfw2.c
for 4M mediatek devices. This adds a second one and assigns them
to the devices so the image sizes are correctly restrained.

This reverts commit 1623defbdb.
As already stated in the reverted patch, the OEM firmware will
properly recreate the config partition if it is overwritten by

The main reason for adding the partition was the image size
restriction imposed by the 0x3d0000 limitation of the TFTP
flashing process. Addressing this by shrinking the firmware
partition is not a good solution to that problem, though:
1. For a working image, the size of the content has to be smaller
than the available space, so empty erase blocks will remain.
2. Conceptually, the restriction is on the image, so it makes sense
to implement it in the same way, and not via the partitioning.
Users could e.g. do initial flash with TFTP restriction with
an older image, and then sysupgrade into a newer one, so TFTP
restriction does not apply.
3. The (content) size of the recovery image is enforced to 0x3d0000
by the tplink-v2-image command in combination with
TPLINK_FLASHLAYOUT (flash layout in mktplinkfw2.c) anyway.

The config partition was missing from the flash layout of the device.
Although the stock firmware resets a corrupted config partition to the
default values, the TFTP flash with an image bigger than 0x3d0000 will
truncate the image as the bootloader only copies 0x3d0000 bytes to flash
during TFTP flashing.
Fixed by adding the config partition and shrinking the firmware
partition.
