white led blinking fast, how to debrick about owrt-ubi-installer HOT 9 CLOSED

I'm afraid at this point you are down to wire up serial and maybe even JTAG (we'll see once serial is connected). If the TFTP client doesn't come up no matter how long and how often you are pressing the RESET button while powering on the device, that's all you can do. So you have to open the device and connect a 3.3V level TTL serial line to the JST PH 2.0 6-pin connector on the board (for pin out see https://openwrt.org/toh/linksys/e8450#serial ) and see what's happening on the console (setup at 115200 8N1).

Thank you very much for your kind replay, I will try to wire a serial line and update you

That looks like the old bootchain coming up properly. It's weird that you didn't manage to trigger TFTP using the button. Now that you have serial access, choose option 2. System Load Linux Kernel then write to Flash via TFTP. in the bootmenu and serve the vendor firmware via TFTP (you will see the expected filename when trying, rename the file accordingly).

Thank you for replay, Do yo recommend a tftp program?
for example the Linksys one or tft6p64

from owrt-ubi-installer.

Any TFTP server will do. I personally use tftp-hpa, but that's just a (very old) habit of mine, your taste may vary.

Thank you very much Mr Golle
With your great support and kindness I managed to revive the device and I am grateful for all your work and help, please accept my gratitude and respect
Merry Christmas to you with love
Ash
by the way What caused this problem and can I install your build again?

from owrt-ubi-installer.

Apparently the vendor boot loader didn't care much about holding the button (?)
But yes, you can of course go ahead and flash the installer another time and enjoy OpenWrt :)

from owrt-ubi-installer.

I've flashed the wrong image in a Linksys E8450 and couldn't get TFTP working by holding down the reset button while powering on.
Had to connect a serial cable and select recovery to tftp, whick worked.
