Hardware
--------
CPU: Freescale P1020 2xe500 PPC
RAM: 256M DDR3 (Micron MT41J64M16JT-15E:G "D9MNJ")
NAND: 128M (Micron 2CA1)
BTN: 1x Reset
LED: Power - ETH - Radio1 - Radio2
UART: RJ-45 Cisco Pinout - 115200 8N1
Installation
------------
NOTE: You can find a repo with up-to-date instructions as well as
the required files here:
https://github.com/blocktrron/msm460-flashing
Required files
==============
You need a command-files as well as a U-Boot image.
The command-file has the following content (padded to 131072 bytes).
If you copy paste these, remove the newlines!
```
U-BOOT setenv ethaddr 02:03:04:05:06:07; setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1;
setenv serverip 192.168.1.66; tftpboot 0x3000000 msm460-uboot.bin;
nand device; nand erase 0 0xC0000; nand write 0x3000000 0x0 0xC0000; reset
```
You can download the required U-Boot from this repository:
https://github.com/blocktrron/u-boot-msm/releases
Preparation
===========
Prepare a TFTP server serving two files:
- U-Boot NAND image as `msm460-uboot.bin`.
- OpenWrt factory image as `msm460-factory.bin`
- Command-file names `commands.tftp`
You can start a TFTP server in the current directory using dnsmasq:
```bash
sudo dnsmasq --no-daemon --listen-address=0.0.0.0 \
--port=0 --enable-tftp=enxd0 --tftp-root="$(pwd)" \
--user=root --group=root
```
Replace `enxd0` with the name of your network interface.
Procedure
=========
1. Assign yourself the IP-Address 192.168.1.66/24.
3. Connect the Router to the PC while keeping the reset button
pressed.
4. The LEDs will eventually begin to flash.
They will start to flash faster after around 15 seconds.
5. Release the reset button.
6. Start a new shell
7. Make sure you are currently in the directory where the tftp server
is located.
8. Run the following command:
```bash
tftp 192.168.1.1 -m binary -c put commands.tftp nflashd.cccc9999
```
You get the message "Transfer timed out."
To find out if you have been successful, please check the
blinking LED Pattern.

Ethernet LED assignments were incorrectly swapped. Fix the assignment
logic so the correct LED is illuminated for the LAN LEDs.

Hardware
--------
SoC: NXP P1010 (1x e500 @ 800MHz)
RAM: 256M DDR3 (2x Samsung K4B1G1646G-BCH9)
FLASH: 32M NOR (Spansion S25FL256S)
BTN: 1x Reset
WiFi: 1x Atheros AR9590 2.4 bgn 3x3
2x Atheros AR9590 5.0 an 3x3
ETH: 2x Gigabit Ethernet (Atheros AR8033 / AR8035)
UART: 115200 8N1 (RJ-45 Cisco)
Installation
------------
1. Grab the OpenWrt initramfs, rename it to ap3715.bin. Place it in
the root directory of a TFTP server and serve it at
192.168.1.66/24.
2. Connect to the serial port and boot the AP. Stop autoboot in U-Boot
by pressing Enter when prompted. Credentials are identical to the one
in the APs interface. By default it is admin / new2day.
3. Alter the bootcmd in U-Boot:
$ setenv ramboot_openwrt "setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1;
setenv serverip 192.168.1.66; tftpboot 0x2000000 ap3715.bin; bootm"
$ setenv boot_openwrt "sf probe 0; sf read 0x2000000 0x140000 0x1000000;
bootm 0x2000000"
$ setenv bootcmd "run boot_openwrt"
$ saveenv
4. Boot the initramfs image
$ run ramboot_openwrt
5. Transfer the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the AP using SCP. Install
using sysupgrade.
$ sysupgrade -n <path-to-sysupgrade.bin>

As the LED controller is working now, we can make good use of the LEDs
now.
- Drop the model-name prefix
- Rename eth0 / eth1 LEDs to LAN1 / LAN2, as they are labeled as such
on the casing
- Enable wired LEDs in userspace
