TP Link Router M7350 v3
If you remove the battery and plugin USB, lsusb shows:
Bus 001 Device 031: ID 18d1:d00d Google Inc. Xiaomi Mi/Redmi 2 (fastboot)
> fastboot devices
MDM9625 fastboot
Above disappears after a few seconds.
If you boot normal, it shows:
Bus 001 Device 032: ID 2357:0005 TP-Link M7350 4G Mi-Fi Router
Enter fastboot without bootloop
fastboot reboot bootloader
Device seems to run Android. You can get the firmware here:
The Firmware is not crypted. You are able to take a deeper look into the configs.

Quick search for the hash gives us oelinux123 as a possible value. We need to check that later.

Firmware seems to contain an adbd. We need to find a way to start it.
Paths to Files and creating symlinks for autostart ect. Lets try to modify that to activate adb.
In the linked 4pda forum thread is a poc for a Remote Code Execution vuln which allows to start the telnet daemon. There are only windows scripts linked right now. We should build a shellscript to invoke it.
More about this here
We started implementing a command line tool in [tp-opener/](tp-opener/)
The .dtb files of HW rev v3 and v4 are stored in dtb_files and can be visualized with dtvis
There has been posted images on 4PDA to points in another revisions. Could be the same for our device. Take a look here
4PDA has found several ways to backup the installed firmware.
