Xiaomi WiFi Router 3G

I put the openwrt / lede firmware correctly. Then I put the miwifi firmware from the web interface. Now it's bricked. What I can do? Can I only recover it by soldering?

From this commit:

Recovery - to stock.

Assuming you used the above installation instructions you will have a
stock kernel image in system 1. If it can be booted then it may be used
to perform a stock firmware recovery, thus erasing LEDE completely. From
a 'working' LEDE state (even failsafe)

Failsafe only:

  • run: mount_root
  • run: sh /etc/uci-defaults/30_uboot-envtools
    Then do the steps for 'All'

All:

  • run: fw_setenv flag_try_sys2_failed 1
  • run: reboot

The board will reboot into system 1 (stock basic kernel) and wait with
system red light slowly blinking for a FAT formatted usb stick with a
recovery image to be inserted. Press and hold the reset button for
around 1 second. Status LED will turn yellow during recovery and blue
when recovery complete.

Thanks craz.
Pardon for my english.
No, the router does not even output ethernet. (i canot connect via ssh) :frowning:

The only thing I see that can be done is install something from the usb.

What's the color of LED?

475

The led is orange... excet in one second that it is blue.

476

Use this instruction https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/mini#reverting_to_stock_firmware

477

In that instruction is MiWiFi firmware link! > download firmware for Xiaomi Router 3G

Has anybody tried installing radius server? I cannot configure it and also sql mods are missing.

I am download firmware developer version of mi wifi r3g: http://bigota.miwifi.com/xiaoqiang/rom/r3g/miwifi_r3g_firmware_0a271_2.26.3.bin

I change the name to "miwifi.bin" and i put it in usb stick with fat32 format. I put the sub stick in router. I power off the router.
Then, with a clip I keep pressing the back button of the router. Without releasing it, I turn on the router and wait a few seconds. Now the led of the router should turn off and on, but what it does is leave a blue light for several milliseconds and return to orange. Several seconds later, the orange light flashes only once.

Hi guys! When the stable version of the firmware is released?

A post was merged into an existing topic: Adblock support thread

You can unbrick with a serial connection. Look this post:

Edit: I think you only have to do till number (five) but with those commands:

setenv flag_try_sys1_failed 0
setenv flag_last_success 0

saveenv
reset

Than you can recover with your usb stick.

Edit2: added flag_last_success
