Linksys EA9300 replaced NAND

Hi all,
have linksys EA9300 with bootloop.
I will connect USB - ttl adapter and have in bootlog BAD NAND.
I replce NAND to new one W29N02GVSIAA and load dump from another worked EA9300

after staring router have this:

after this i download official firmware for ea9300. rename to belkin_ea9300.w
and upload to router via tftp server, and have the same log, and router don't worked.

after this i press ctrl+c and enter CFE, typing help and see this commands:

i try to upload fulldump to nand via command
w 192.168.1.254:fulldump.bin
and have the same like on beggining.

Hi, did you find any solution?.. I have same problem that you describe..

Thanks

Hi, all. logros -- Could you post a full dump from NAND W29N02GVSIAA or send me?

Please, download dump to somewhere!

I have full dump NAND Flash for device with RT809H. If everybody need it, send mail to me get it mrkenz9595@gmail.com
