TP-Link 840 V6.2 link for tftp-recovery is not accessible. Can you plelase have a check once again.
squashfs-sysupgrade image hasn't worked via GUI upgrade menu for me, so I decided to use it for tftp flash by renaming it to tp_recovery.bin ( the file being requestes via tftp) and so I bricked the 840N v6.2 router. Hopefully the tftp image would fix it. The original tp-link firmware doesn't work to be restored via tftp either.

Try this. Sorry but i just do not have currently 6.2 anymore for testing.
I just compiled latest. If this not working better to remove the files.
Let me know ....
squashfs-sysupgrade can not be used for tftp its different size and you need to extra pad 64k.
squashfs-sysupgrade does not work from web interface ? What is the error ?
Thanks, but this tftp-recovery image still does not work. No problems that you can't tests the images. I can test them direclty on my 840 v6.2. I will waste much more time and nerves to compile it, so..
squashfs-sysupgrade was getting the typical user error, which most users are facing. Something like the image is not for this router. I can't test that anymore. Only via tftp now.
Its important to know which version you see at your firmware page. We may have other hardware version for example with more flash or memory. I will try to find some 6.2 around and will test. Please until then i will remove files do not ask for any files because you can break your router.
please fix your link
I wanna download for v6
better upload in gdrive sir
i wanna use ur compile and install sqm & nodogsplash, is it fit?
if not fit i wanna build image by my self. but link for image builder files is cant be access too
hope you have time to fix it
my suggestion, please upload your image builder to github, so every changes u make is ready to use to us, i following ur guide and when i run make info, i still cant find image for v6
Links are removed because one of the users here destroyed his router
What the meaning of that?
is the router destroyed because using your compiled image for wr840n v6?
copy mt76x8.mk to target/linux/ramips/image/mt76x8.mk
copy 02_network to ./target/linux/ramips/mt76x8/base-files/etc/board.d/02_network
leds for tp-link version 6.2 you can see in file 6.2-leds. You can do your etc/config/system with 6.2-leds
make menuconfig and choose your arch:
Target System (MediaTek Ralink MIPS)
Subtarget (MT76x8 based boards)
Target Profile (TP-Link TL-WR840N v6.2)
Note that space is not enough for luci if you can not remove kernel and busybox options you do not need like tar/gzip...
You can remove IPV6 for quick free space.
make V=99 (this to compile)
ready images will be here: bin/targets/ramips/mt76x8/

You can flash from original software. Note that you will have also tftp images.
You can flash with them too using 192.168.0.66 address.
I hope someone finally put this into openwrt tree
If you remove unneeded stuff there is a plenty of space !!! Personally i have web luci with upnp + ipv6 and netfilter extra modules and still have 200K free !
Note that you need latest openwrt because there are changes in dts files which i changed here already.
I'm trying to compile Ver 6.0
Download of version of yesterday (635f111148) fails with the current message:

Any hints?
Should I use v19.07.3 instead of newest one?
technically itjust working well, if i just compailing it with no any else .config added
but whenever i put ssh or LuCI embeded on it ..

then kernel panik.. just shows'up
so, what iam missing then ?
We can still build version 6.0,6.1,6.2,14 versus latest openwrt and have enough free space so we can store settings during restarts. I can upload dts/02_network and mt76x8.mk if someone is interested in making patches. Also i can upload good .config and kernel config files where i cut things we do not need like ca-bundle (over 100K compressed) and similar stuff. Also my build has ipv6 and luci/upnp/extra nat modules included.
This is my final image size:
