Title: s3 disaster stop my headache Post by: ChineseSavior on January 20, 2015, 09:44:47 AM ok well I upgraded firmware that bitmain warrenty sent me.
The upgrade fixed all my "blow boards" but still getting drops in hash and entire units quitting on me until power cycle. I have been experienced similar problems with the s3's after flashing. I will just lose boards out of nowhere or the unit itself will stop hashing all together. Please help me this is very frustrating I am getting the same errors we discussed before but less frequently. All my boards seem to be working now otherwise this has been occcuring since my initial purchase of the s3 unit Title: Re: s3 disaster stop my headache Post by: ChineseSavior on January 23, 2015, 10:32:15 AM we are back online ???

Title: Re: s3 disaster stop my headache Post by: MCHouston on January 26, 2015, 06:07:56 PM I have had some of my S3's act weird and hash at around 100Gh or just stop all together.
Here is what I did to fix it. 1. Flash Newest Firmware from 2015 2. Reset to factory default from webGui 3. Reconfigure and Mine My guess is the older firmware has an option in the config the new firmware does not like, so until all the configs are rebuilt using the default from the newer firmware it will just act weird. Hope that works for you if you have not done it already. Title: Re: s3 disaster stop my headache Post by: sloopy on January 27, 2015, 01:41:09 AM https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=883197.0
Discusses firmware issues. Not a long read. If you use the 12-19 or the 10-24 version make sure you uncheck the keep settings box first, then select the file to be flashed, then proceed, etc |
