@remittor huh okay. I tried just option 2 but it didn't work. So I tried
ubi remove linux
ubi remove jffs2
ubi remove rootfs
ubi remove rootfs_data
ubi create linux 0x45fe000
And I was actually able to get back to stock firmware.
Then I tried to use the web-flashing.trx file again and it was back into the reboot loop.
Even deleting the partitions again seems to do nothing. I tried again and there was a linux and a jffs2 but not the others. But uploading the stock TRX doesn't work any longer.
This command is superfluous if you continue to use the official recovery process.
For this device you need this:
ubi create linux 0x6406000
Without the UART log it is impossible to understand the reason.
Okay so here is details so far
So I:
BTW I am fine just going straight to openwrt. I just imagine getting it back to stock and the reflashing is a method.
Here is the output after initramfs upload which appears to be the same as before

Okay I now have it working fine by using the Feb 11 initramfs for web. Feb 5 and Feb 16 both brick my device when uploading to the Asus web.
I have now sys upgraded to Feb 12-sysupgrade. Will stay on that for a bit since I don't want to risk it 
Some details
| Date | Sha256 | Bricks |
|---|---|---|
| Feb 5 | bf817c0383ef5b9fa1009652f8afa30b26b2e23fa0522a8932c7721f93a69385 | YES |
| Feb 11 | b48ab12560fdfe0eaf5ed66731e38a55b38890fe14d02dc2d2b8a6c649bbe3d8 | NO |

I'm not sure why only the Feb11 version works and the others do not when flashing to the web.
Thanks for the logs! Thanks to you, I found an error in the code of my utility mkasustrx!
Today I will fix it.
Reason for error: FDT image must be aligned to an 8-byte address.
Okay awesome. I am glad that I captured the correct logs for you to find it. Much appreciated.
The fix was not easy! But everything worked out:
https://github.com/openwrt-xiaomi/openwrt/commit/f25b0acb8f21d0fc862ff5d5ec9c609e6b69a81e#diff-b3afd9d94ac53d0ac9bf36931d9c62e592be67f8c64114566e4a74daf249ec34R99-R108
I tried the Feb 21 sysupgrade and it worked perfectly!
This is a thread in the developer section for this particular device. To post your own hardware question or review multiple other available options Iād check out the hardware section of the forums (there are multiple recent threads and/or you can start your own thread with your requirements):
To set a fixed fan speed, you need to add a few lines to file rc.local (LuCI -> System -> Startup):
for file in /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone*/mode; do
echo disabled > "$file";
done
echo 1600 > /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/fan1_target
@remittor qq I am updating my device when I see them in the Google drive. Are they just updates from OpenWRT main branch or are they specific updates to the x89x software?
Unless otherwise specified, It is going to be a long time before we will see official OpenWRT firmware for this device.
Can you please elaborate what remains the main blocker for releasing it sooner? I.e. something needs work or it relies on changes that won't land until much later?
well, to go more into a bit detail, I thin the OpenWRT maintainers are doing a "all hands on deck" to changing all the routers they support from whatever kernel they are on now to kernel 6.1 or 6.6
As much as I would like to see the RT-AX89X "rock n roll" with OpenWRT, I think all we can do is wait.
heres to hoping we see it very soon on the "stable builds" downloads folder
I am convinced that version 24.XX.0 (or 25.XX.0) will have to wait a very long time.
23.05.0, while branched in late May, has only been released in mid October. According to the usual cadence of a bit over a year between releases, this -with kernel v6.1- would be a bit early (yes, there is quite some staging new hardware support and some breaking changes (DSA for ipq806x, {,sub}target rename for qualcommax/ipq807x, lots of work on filogic 820/ 830, ~830, qualcommax/ipq60xx is already knocking at the door (mostly waiting for QCA to formally publish a working wireless firmware)), but other aspects of OpenWrt still need to catch up (mbedtls, hostapd, the kernel for the older targets, ā¦).
So yes, 24.xy.0 (and that may very well become 25.xy.0) will take a while, but probably less because of the (not really formally final yet) switch to kernel v6.6 instead of v6.1, just more because of the rest of the system. We're already seeing a flurry of activity to port the popular/ newer targets to v6.6 - so I would expect most of the targets that are on v6.1 now, to be on v6.6 very soon. The real efforts will be necessary for the older and less actively maintained targets, but those have only gotten attention for v6.1 very recently or are still on v5.15 now. Yes, a switch to kernel v6.6 will have 'some' impact on the release schedule, but less than you seem to imply (perhaps ~1-2 months). It's not throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
Yes, running main snapshots is not for everyone, but once your device becomes available in main, it will be usable and will (very likely) be part of the next stable release, whatever that will be called.
Disclaimer: this is just extrapolating from recent history and keeping an eye on the development, I'm obviously not an OpenWrt developer, nor have any inside information, nor speaking for the project.
Hi, can you help me out with this fan setting?
I have the issue that my model turns off the fan shortly after boot (even before luci is running). One temp sensor (gpio008) runs around 92 degrees C, so I think I should get that fan running again.
I have added this line to my startup, but it did not help. I then changed the folder from hwmon0 to hwmon1 because there I found fan-related files, including fan1_target. But after boot the fan is off again.
Editing them manually does not work, for some reason. The values are noted as saved, but upon re-opening the file it has reverted to zero.
I am running on snapshot 240317 master, which is the latest I could find.
probably better off waiting for the official firmware to come out first. So as of right now, probably got about 6 more months to go before the OpenWRT developers start making official firmware for this router.
Mhm, it sure is the safest bet for getting a functioning firmware.
I'm just thinking, this is clearly a bug, that I should report/mention. It strikes me, especially because there seems to be a process overriding any fix I come up with. As I said earlier, the fan speed values can be edited, but they get reset shortly after again. Even changing chmod to read only does not prevent this. Weird.
So far I have not encountered any other issue, which probably is a good sign in terms of quickly porting it to the new firmware. I sure am looking forwards to it 
This may not happen for this reason:
OpenWRT developers are very strange people and can simply refuse to build old uImage for a ARM64 platform.
