Dynalink DL-WRX36 Bricked after using Sysupgrade Latestly nightly

Howdy! I did a sysupgrade on my wrx36 the other day and it turned into a brick, so i fired up the soldering iron and put a serial port on it, anyway i can get it to boot now, but when i formatted the device, i dont think the output was correct:


root@OpenWrt:/# cd tmp/
root@OpenWrt:/tmp# ubiformat /dev/mtd18 -y -f /tmp/factory_image.ubi

libscan: scanning eraseblock 775 -- 100 % complete
ubiformat: 776 eraseblocks have valid erase counter, mean value is 3
ubiformat: error!: file "/tmp/factory_image.ubi" (size 11878707 bytes) is not multiple of eraseblock size (131072 bytes)
           error 0 (No error information)

           error 0 (No error information)

and then after i reboot, i get this:

And thats the same error i seen in the bootup logs when i did the sysupgrade flash from the webui ?

full startup log

solved lol
used the sysupgrade image instead of the factory image...

openwrt-23.05.5-ipq807x-generic-dynalink_dl-wrx36-squashfs-factory.ubi

after going through it again it booted right up

So ive tried multiple times now to upgrade to nightly or the latest RC, and even the NSS builds, and every boot, i run into the same issue as this guy: snapshop and RC fail: Dynalink DL-WRX36 Askey RT5010W IPQ8072A technical discussion - #2878 by sampson
