I have exactly the same problem as issue #14 and #13 but unfortunately the fix provided didn't work in my case #29

Update: apparently R7000-V1.0.3.80_1.1.38.zip is the back to stock firmware for legacy build, mine was not, I should have flashed R7000-V1.0.9.26_10.2.31.zip. Still, my router is not bricked and it's running, but I can't flash any firmware into it. |
Problem solved through different means, using telnet to flash back to XWRT, read here: |

Not in my case though, I was using the trx from several firmware versions
and developers, none worked.

You must extract it first, and then use the contained .trx file as an
argument to the -f parameter!

In that case, you might still have encountered an issue similar to the ones you referenced. While the What hardware version of the R7000 is this? |
Came here for #14 and now this #29 issue. Exact same issue.
I don't think there are multiple versions of the hardware. At least, mind does not indicate any such version number - like my old WRT54s, WRT610Ns, E4200s used to. That "link" to the dd-wrt forums, marking this as Resolved, is a difficult read (and some unfriendly help - kind of reminding me why I left that community 10 years ago). The resolution you proposed in that thread basically says to use a TTL cable (I'm guessing a serial cable) to flash the device. @jclehner How did you "modify" the firmware to change the version number? that is all I think we need to resolve this instead of the "buy a cable and Telnet" approach? And yes, we are looking to use I see the biggest mistake we are all making is that we are picking the latest Netgear firmware to flash over, say, an old AdvancedTomato, DD-WRT, OpenWRT, previous firmware. DO NOT DO THIS! But if you landed here looking for a resolution then you most likely have and now you're screwed. The latest Netgear firmware from 2019 onwards basically prevent you from uploading anything through the UX to flash, except their own firmware. |

In fact,
I agree that the error messages are rather technical, and not exactly user-friendly, especially for the more inexperienced users.
The timeout was 200 milliseconds, and has been increased to 1 second for the next release. |
In regards to this issue, I personally suggested flashing FreshTomato (implied that it be done via the mini CFE webserver in the modified Asus CFE) to revert the CFE. There was even an indirect pointer to a viable solution by egc (that would've required serial console). Furthermore, I would like to add a suggestion that folks who are too timid to interject and offer up help because of folks who are abrasive need to pull up the bootstraps and push up their sleeves and dive in and relieve us abrasive folks of the burden. That's about as nice as I can put it. Feel free to remove this comment if you wish. |
Quick note, I don't think that helps whatever your case is... I don't think you can pull yourself up by your bootstrap without falling... :/ Kind of odd that you use that as an arugment That being said, I agree with the point about ssh/telnet, especially if @YyYy-YyY has access to the admin controls via ssh/telnet, but unless the person knows what is needed to do serial cable flashing, which is dangerous even if you do know how to then the below applies: Then it is really a bad idea... as A K.I.S.S operating system user, I did assist in debricking a libreboot comp via raspberry pi b, but if I hadn't had an engineer with me then even know how to install FDE + /Boot Successfully: WOULD have been a NIGHTMARE. Or possibly worse depending on the level of failure. So you are half right, AFAIK. ;) |
@FrostKnight I never said to pull oneself up by their bootstraps. I guess I should've said something a little less "cliché-esque" and typed out "put on your big boy boots, push up your sleeves, and go to work". Anyhow, all water under the bridge and ancient history. The only direction to move is forward; no need to move backwards. |
I was running a version of XWRT on a R7000, and to revert back to original, I used this firmware:
https://mega.nz/#F!ct9zUaCS!lG4g5i5SDhSzG_NH-QSl1g?cpsnBYBQ
Version R7000-V1.0.3.80_1.1.38.zip
The router still works fine, but I can't upload ANY firmware on the web page, tried different browsers etc. I get this error:
"This firmware file is incorrect! Please get the firmware file again and make sure it is the correct firmware for this product. "
Resetting to factory settings both in the GUI and through the reset button made not difference. It's gives the same error even using the GUI native online update feature.
After searching a lot I found this tool, and after a steep learning curve to get it to this point, I have the same problem as the issues mentioned in the title (#13 and #14 ):
"OK

I tried using the the firmware you provided , with a modified version number, but in my case, it still doesn't work...
I'm not sure where the problem is, I'm thinking it's not your software, but decided to ask for some help... If there some way to force flash what I want.
Thanks!
