hey, i've bought a Xiaomi Mi Router AX3000T with OpenWRT pre-installed
the version of OpenWRT is OpenWrt SNAPSHOT (r25004-b463737826)
the disk space showed in LuCI is 38mb but it should be 128mb
how can i use a stable version of openwrt on this device ?
do you have any ideas about why disk is 38mb ?
There is no stable release version of OpenWrt, supporting this device, yet.
Only snapshots available for now.
okey so this device comes with passwall2 pre-installed and there is only 38mb of storage
do you have any idea how can i reinstall a clear version of snapshot ? when i perform reset the passwall and default setting are not going away
It's best to use the https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org.
Check the exact Model in your status page.
If it mentions U-Boot layout, you have to choose that image.
If you are not familiar with using snapshots, read this, about the differences:
https://openwrt.org/releases/snapshot#main_differences_of_buildbot_snapshots_vs_official_stable_releases
there is no u-boot mentioned, should i use the normal version ?
is there going to be a release version of OpenWRT for my device ?
Yes, just use the normal version.
You can flash the sysupgrade image via LuCI.
If you need additional packages, you can customize the package list.
There is a dropdown Customize installed packages....
I can recommend installing luci-app-attendedsysupgrade.
It makes it easier to upgrade, when using snapshots.
It keeps your installed packages, so no need to use firmware-selector every time, or reinstall all the packages manually.

Yes, at some point there will be a stable release for this device.
u-boot version maximazes the flash space for additional packages, you don't seem to be using it.

it doesn't, seems the previous owner installed it.
you'll never get 128mb available flash space though, around 100mb is more realistic
