Marco von Rosenberg cd1b70f6f9 ipq40xx: add support for Huawei AP4050DN ... Hardware ======== SoC: Qualcomm IPQ4018 ETH: Qualcomm QCA8075 (2 x RJ-45) WDG: OnSemi SCT706 RAM: Micron MT41K128M16JT-125 (256MB) NOR: Infineon S25FL512S (64MB) Installation ============ 1. Create a ramboot-able image with the command { dd if=/dev/zero bs=32 count=1 2>/dev/null; \ cat openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-huawei_ap4050dn-initramfs-uImage.itb; \ } > ramboot.bin` 2. Start a TFTP server in the folder with the ramboot.bin. 3. Plug in a USB-RJ45 serial adapter to the CONSOLE port of the device and start a serial console session with 9600 baud, no parity, 1 stop bit. 4. Plug in either 12V power or PoE to the device. 5. On the prompt `Press f or F to stop Auto-Boot in 3 seconds`, press `f` to enter the Huawei U-Boot command line 6. Enter a new password for the u-boot command line 7. In the command line, run these commands to ramboot OpenWrt: setenv serverip <IPv4 address of TFTP server> setenv ipaddr <IPv4 address for this AP> setenv rambootfile ramboot.bin run ramboot 8. In OpenWrt, set up the network and then `scp` the files `u-boot-huawei_ap4050dn/uImage` and `openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-huawei_ap4050dn-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin` into `/tmp/` 9. To backup the original firmware, run the following: cat /dev/mtd12 /dev/mtd13 > huawei_ap4050dn_fw_backup.bin.bin 10. Run the following commands to flash u-boot and OpenWrt to the device: mtd erase uboot mtd write /tmp/uImage uboot sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-huawei_ap4050dn-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin 11. The device should now boot OpenWrt! (sometimes the boot process takes a bit longer due to the watchdog resetting the device before the watchdog driver runs) Signed-off-by: Marco von Rosenberg <marcovr@selfnet.de>		2026-03-07 18:52:31 +01:00
