I've also had bricked my HG655b upgrading from openwrt 15 to lede 17.01.1
It was a kernel panic ( seen with serial connection ).
NO restore interface with alessio31183 method , but i've managed to get it back to openwrt from fail safe mode with netcat and sysupgrade
I can confirm these errors too.
On Chaos Calmer 15.05.1 the Wi-Fi doesn't work, and on any LEDE version it doesn't boot at all, it's just restarting continuously...
What can be the problem?
if someone of you guys can connect a TTL-usb dongle to its serial debug port (info in the article linked in my post above), you can open a bug report with the boot log (the text you see in serial console when the device is booting, that will probably give some hints to what the error is).
(connecting VCC pin isn't usually required if you use a USB TTL dongle as it takes power from your PC's USB port)
Here's the boot log:

I'm not sure though how to make a bug report... I am pretty noobish at this.
See here for how/where to submit a bug https://lede-project.org/bugs
It seems the kernel crashes because of kmodloader (program that loads driver modules) that does something wrong while loading that device's wifi driver ("rt2800pci"), but I'm not a dev, I don't know the specifics here.
There were a few commits in the last 4 days to fix some kmodloader crashing (maybe related to your issue?) in the main repo https://git.lede-project.org/?p=project/ubox.git;a=summary
You may want to try a LEDE snapshot too.
EDIT: theoretically, if that's indeed the issue, a firmware built without the wifi driver would work fine. Of course the wifi won't work without the driver.
Looks like it's a known issue in the kernel (not kmodloader) and has a temporary fix available at https://bugs.lede-project.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=918
The temporary fix is already in the lede-17.01 branch, but it happens after the release of 17.01.2. Please consider giving snapshot build of lede-17.01 branch a try: https://downloads.lede-project.org/releases/17.01-SNAPSHOT/targets/brcm63xx/generic/
Alright. The info you guys provided above helped a lot.
I believe it was indeed a problem in the kernel, because this image worked: https://downloads.lede-project.org/releases/17.01-SNAPSHOT/targets/brcm63xx/generic/lede-17.01-snapshot-r3504-1100bbf-brcm63xx-generic-HG655b-squashfs-cfe.bin
Seeing it is a known issue, I don't think I have to send another bug report...
Anyway, I've tried the SMP image too and this works as well.
https://downloads.lede-project.org/releases/17.01-SNAPSHOT/targets/brcm63xx/smp/lede-17.01-snapshot-r3503-f62a31d-brcm63xx-smp-HG655b-squashfs-cfe.bin
This is the bootlog (lede-17.01-snapshot-r3503-f62a31d-brcm63xx-smp-HG655b-squashfs-cfe), if it helps with anything:

I'm going to use it daily, if it's stable, until something better appears. And I will inform here as well if I find something wrong with it.
Thanks for all of your help! I really appreciate it.
Hi again.
The HG655b has another similar problem. Now it doesn't work with the latest version, 18.06.0. It worked great with previous ones: 17.01.03, 17.01.04 and 17.01.05...

This does not bother me too much. I just wanted you guys to know.
same problem as Mihai on latest firmware (I have hg622u, but the firmware link is for hg655b)
The hardware pages lists the 655 firmware:
?
I don't have problem getting the right firmware, my problem is that it doesn't work (kernel panic, same as the post above). Since I'm using the same firmware package (I assume since it's got hg655b in it's name), and since the error message is the same, I think it's likely it's the same issue.
Yes, all 18.06 stable release builds are broken, including the new 18.06.2 one.
I did a bug report and they fixed this problem very fast in the development snapshot builds.
https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commit;h=26d4cb2ca7acde1254f6ce6c0a54e0aca1489a0f
It seems to me that all brcm63xx targets were affected...
Anyway, the fix has not yet been implemented in a stable release.
For now you can use this version on your device:
https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/17.01.6/targets/brcm63xx/smp/lede-17.01.6-brcm63xx-smp-HG655b-squashfs-cfe.bin
...or this snapshot (it comes without luci):
https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/targets/brcm63xx/smp/openwrt-brcm63xx-smp-HG655b-squashfs-cfe.bin
But... What happens if we no longer have the original calibration data? Has this snapshot version some kind of valid calibration data? If I flash the latest snapshot version, will it come back to life?
TIA
I have no idea.
You deleted the cal_data partition? If so, maybe I could make a copy from my router, but I'm not sure if it will work.
Sorry for my late response btw. I've been extremely busy lately...
I have already solved. But thank you anyway.
No problem. I'm glad you figured it out.
This is very interesting. Thanks for sharing!
On the web page of the model HG655b you have the calibration data of that model. They are very similar to those of the HG622 model. Use my procedure and maybe it works for you. Do not forget to change the MAC by which the sticker is printed, and change the last two characters. If it works, report it.
Hi guys,
Did anyone played with the hardware of this router?
Is there any chance to upgrade RAM, Flash chips?
Thanks in advance!
