i havent made any backup i didnt flash kernel0 with the lede attempt and after i flashed the sysupgrade of pandorabox thinking it would fix.
news until now is did a good soldering job and serial works.
what could i do right now?
I linked my kernel0 backup, you can use that.
It is linked in my previous post
thank you for all the support i really appreciate it
however since im not that advanced i still dont understand fully
so right now before i even attempt
i must bootup with serial choose option 1 load SDRAM via TFTP
load intramfs image ? which one? flash it and then?
Yes,load image to RAM over TFTP
Use lede-ramips-mt7620-miwifi-r3-initramfs-kernel.bin from here:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B1VOQQ-_EIXKekpaa3d6bERUZ2s
Then after that one boots just mtd write kernel_rsvd0(Could differ slighty,check with cat /proc/mtd)
And then copy miwifi.bin to usb,plug that in usb port of router.
Turn router off and then hold reset while pluggin power back again until led starts flashing
after lede boots from ram using the image u provided i try cat /proc/mtd
root@LEDE:/# cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
root@LEDE:/# fw_setenv flag_last_success 0
Cannot access MTD device /dev/mtd1: No such file or directory
Error: environment not initialized
Have you even read my last reply?
You cant use that flag
Is your partition table empty?
it cannot be since if i dont press any option it tries booting pandorabox however with this method loading it on ram as u can see i cannot check the partitions
That means that Padavan messed heavily with your flash.
Only thing I can think of is to try using kernel image from here:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B1VOQQ-_EIXKdHNqd1VOXzdTdlU
actually i restored to stock completely after padavan and thereon from stock tried flashing lede and after pandorabox
you must have meant pandorabox and yes probably it did.
ill give your latest post a try
Yes, PandoraBox.
still the same unfortunately with this image
Well it looks like Pandorabox messed with your partitions.
Most likely deleted them all.
Can you try flashing stock image over TFTP
cant i flash directly through option 2 the stock firmware?
so right now when i boot up holding option 2 keeping it pressed it selects it starting all over selecting it and when i let it go it automatically chooses option 3 and boots up pandorabox meaning i cannot flash
Well,that is what I am suggesting but I dont think it will work.

the last lines of pandorabox failing to boot
They have the same driver issue like we do.
NAND driver for MT620 is not working
following the translations on the chinese forum somehow as bad translated as they were i think prior to flashing they also did something to the bootloader for it to load pandorabox successfully.
but right now in my case as it is i cannot choose optioni 2 anymore to flash an image.
are there any other methods i could try out?
Is it bootlooping or what?
no it just stays this way with failed boot with these lines at the end
Well,how cant you then choose u-boot options?
