Comment (by hnyman):
I have 3700v1, 3700v2 and 3800, and in all of those the ID string is read
ok.
Actually, in my 3700v1 and 3700v2 there is no ID string at that location.
Instead the art partition data stops after the serial number
(2KY114530310A in your case).
If you look at the routine in
https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/target/linux/ar71xx/base-
files/lib/ar71xx.sh#L36 , you notice that e.g. 3700v2 is expected to have
ff's there.
There have every now and then been a few cases like yours in the forum
discussions and here, but I think that they are exceptions (e.g. newest
production batches, or refurbished, or something. Probably manufactured
after the factory's routines have already been modified to include the new
stuff in 3800.)
