I have a few sophos APX120 laying arround.
I was digging around with some APX.uimages and got one image, that boots the APX into a OpenWrt root shell without a password.
I think, it should be possible to get some information about the sources from this image and i would like to build one by myself.
Is there any walkthough for a generic model?
this device https://fccid.io/2ACTO-APX120 ?
who's the actual chip maker, it's hard to see in the photos ...
Hi,
from the Boot log and the Link you provided...
This is a Qualcom IPQ4019 (i have not removed the cooler yet).
The OEM bootlog seems the same as GL-iNet GL-S1300.
With an early uImage 2.0** i have root access to OpenWrt running on this AP.
Is there any information, i could get from the file system?

you probably want to post the whole boot log, output of lspci, and cat /proc/mtd
interrupting u-boot, and posting printenv and help, won't hurt.
if it's similar to the GL-S1300, you could try to create an initramfs, and try to bootm it via uboot, to see what works, and what doesn't.
but be aware, you'll be the guy adding the support for this device, since you own it.
Hi!
You could also ask sophos. I had success with a GPL request.
I have also acquired some APX120s.. And would love to put in the work to get OpenWRT running on these..
https://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/downloads/firewall-installers
has at least some gpl components..

A lot of them seems to be old, but probably useful..
If i find more time, i´ll try to break a default apx120 image.
most image boot OpenWrt and switch to a sophos specific.
If i boot into failsafe (some OpenWrt) it will reboot after a while.
There is some watchdog, that will trigger the reboot.
