Missing fip.bin for GL-MT3000 in mtk_uartboot-v0.1.1-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc_add-blobs.zip #24

Description

@dharmendrachauhan

Hi, thanks for building this tool — it's been really helpful for recovery attempts.

I have a GL.iNet GL-MT3000 (Beryl AX) that's stuck in a state where the
flash-resident U-Boot serves the web recovery page at 192.168.1.1, but every
firmware/U-Boot image upload fails with "UPDATE FAILED" after completing
the upload to 100%.

I found the mtk_uartboot-v0.1.1-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc_add-blobs.zip bundle,
which includes bl2-mt7981-bga-ddr4-ram.bin (confirmed correct for MT3000
per GL.iNet's own board documentation), but the only fip.bin included is
fip-mt2500.bin, for a different model.

Do you have a working fip.bin specifically built/tested for GL-MT3000? Or
could you point me toward how to extract/build one correctly for this model?
I'd rather not guess with a different model's fip given the risk of writing
an incompatible partition layout.

Device details:

  • Model: GL-MT3000 (Beryl AX)
  • Board revision: MT3000D-V1.0
  • U-Boot version currently in flash: 2022.07-rc3

Happy to test and report back results if that's useful to you or others
hitting the same issue.

Thanks again for the tool.
