ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2016/11-14-2016-r30880/tplink_tl-wr841ndv11/

first reset to factory (stock firmware)
than use factory to dd-wrt first followed by flash with webimage

use those builds according to your unit US or not !!

I tried exactly as you said
first i restore to fectory settings then tried to flash that .bin image(ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2016/11-14-2016-r30880/tplink_tl-wr841ndv11/factory-to-ddwrt.bin) bcz im from india (not us!)
but it gave me error massage (Error code: 18005
Upgrade unsuccessfully because the version of the upgraded file was incorrect. Please check the file name.)

my router info are these
Firmware Version:3.16.9 Build 160325 Rel.62500n
Hardware Version: WR841N v11 00000000

what to do now?
Crying or Very sad

You can try TFTP recovery mode and use factory-to-ddwrt file.

You will probably not believe me but I have no whatsapp.

Don't worry it works great.
If for some reason it did not work out for you, use this link to get it back to the normal TL fimware.

http://forum.tp-link.com/showthread.php?81462-How-to-recovery-the-router-when-you-bricked-it

The first time I did it I F up, my router was dead it doesn't do anything.
I followed the steps in the above link and I had a brand new router again with the latest TL firmware.

After that I used the firmware from this link

ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2016/11-14-2016-r30880/tplink_tl-wr841ndv11/

For me the non us files.
And well you see the picture...
