Xiaomi Mi Router 4A Gigabit Edition (R4AG/R4A Gigabit) -- fully supported and flashable with OpenWRTInvasion

i have same problem too

Anyone knows how to solve that issue or where to ask for a properly fix?

Thanks,

Regards

SPI flash clock rated at max 80MHz. It's possibly reason of unstable i/o operations. Can you decrease spi clock and check again?

fix jffs2 error
***.build opnwrt master only use kernal 4.14.166 , date 2020-01-23

all working

Just for test you can try this 19.07.2 image (spi clk down to 24MHz):

Looks like some new openwrt-"feature". Have same serious bug on MT7620A. Posted official bug report already, and created some forum message here, too.

Can you link the bug report please.

Hi,

I can confirm that after the commit rollback, everything is working as supposed.

No more jffs2 errors and all configuration and packages remain after every reboot.

Thanks for all who helped to detect and solve (it's a rollback right now) this issue.

Regards.

Is this still working\receiving updates? Is this still a work in progress? I've got this router but I'm having issues setting it to Europe, I need to set it to mainland china or I will not be able to login into my Mi Account. I hope you guys find a way to get dd-wrt properly work on this router. Thanks for your contributions!!

You should have read the post first before asking these questions. A guide how to flash it can be found in the first post or at Xiaomi WiFi Router 3G V2
You need a ch341a flasher ($5 on aliexpress).
