I can also confirm. When flashing LEDE factory.bin from stock firmware (I tried all LEDE stable releases and few snapshots) the end result was always the same. It alaways reverts back to the stock smart wifi firmware or basic (depending which was installed). I tried 5h yesterday to find a soloution to directly flash LEDE, but couldn't make it happen.

Only way to currently flash LEDE on EA3500 is to first flash Openwrt an then flash LEDE sysupgrade.tar
