XE3000 debrick method boots into Luci

Routers 4G LTE, 5G NR, USB modems

Hi all

I ran open source openwrt 24.10.1 on my GL-XE3000 just fine but somehow an opkg upgrade failed and now I want to flash stock 4.7.4 and then open source openwrt 24.10.1 again.

But

If I use the debrick method (reset+poweron : 5 times internet led toggle and then WiFi on) I can reach http://192.168.1.1/ but it presents a Luci login ... not the Uboot page.

Shall I login root (but then, which password?) or shall I try other sequence?

Thanks for support

turns out I could log in user root password root and upload saved config and upgrade to 24.10.2 from there

You're running OpenWRT 24.10.2 on the XE-3000?
Does the GL GUI still work and function?

I run open source vanilla OpenWRT 24.10.2 on XE-3000. It does not have the nice GL GUI. The modem functionality like searching and choosing tower and provider has to be done manually. Also, in vanilla OpenWRT, I did not try (yet) to upgrade modem firmware using QFirehose (my current modem firmware is recent) and I did not find a way (yet) to monitor battery.
