Installation (UART)
Note: There might be methods without UART possible soon.
Place OpenWrt initramfs image on tftp server with IP 192.168.1.2

Attach UART, switch on the router and interrupt the boot process by pressing 'Ctrl-C'

Load and run OpenWrt initramfs image:

      tftpboot initramfs-kernel.bin
      bootm

!!Attention!! is very important! After entering OpenWrt, please set / update the environment variables:

fw_setenv bootargs "ubi.mtd=ubi0 console=ttyS0,115200n1 loglevel=8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x11002000 init=/etc/preinit"
fw_setenv mtdids "spi-nand0=spi-nand0"
fw_setenv mtdparts "spi-nand0:2M(boot),1M(u-boot-env),50M(ubi0),50M(ubi1),8M(userconfig),4M(tp_data),8M(mali_data)"
fw_setenv tp_boot_idx 0

Run 'sysupgrade -n' with the sysupgrade OpenWrt image from console or Luci WebUI.

Recovery

Press Reset button and power on the router
Navigate to U-Boot recovery web server (192.168.1.1) and upload the OEM firmware
