I've set this before: cd braiins-os_am1-s9_ssh_VERSION
virtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python3 .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip install -r ./requirements.txt
after: python3 restore2factory.py Antminer-S9-all-201812051512-autofreq-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz 172.16.0.134
Extracting backup tarball...
Invalid backup tarball!
It's invalid backup.... You need to run: python3 restore2factory.py path/to/backup hostname --factory-image path/to/Antminer-S9-all-201812051512-autofreq-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz you may need to use an older factory firmware as I can’t remember whether the newest LPM firmwares are partial updates as opposed to full firmware images. Here are the instructions for if you do not have a backup from when you upgraded to bOS 1.) create empty directory backup 2.) create text file mac (without any file extension) 3.) write one line with MAC address to the file mac (you can obtain your MAC address from web interface Network -> Interfaces -> MAC-Address) 4.) compress the file mac with tar using gzip compression and store it to the backup directory with a name config.tar.gz 5.) create a file called uEnv.txt in the back up directory containing the following information: recovery_mtdparts=mtdparts=pl35x-nand:32m(BOOT.bin-env-dts-kernel),144m(angstram-rootfs),80m(upgrade-rootfs) This is from the walkthrough given to me by Braiins support. |

I’m mining with an Innosilicon T2T+24 right now, as far as I know they haven’t missed any product launches. The only thing I can think of that were announced but were never sold are their ETH miners. I’ve never heard of them scamming anyone by taking preorders and not delivering.
Sorry that sounds like their T2 turbo not the "+" model. The "+" had a spec of 32TH/S . These should have been sold and delivered in October some time. If you do have one you would be the first person that I know of, would you be willing to do a few images - Miner, Status page. You could create a topic for that particular model, and I can update the "current hardware list". Thanks for the info. Mine on Fair enough, I was going off their for sale section which lists all the newer miners as T2(T)Turbo-(hashrate), e.g. T2T-24T, T2T-32T, etc. Strangely, the 'press release' for the 32T model interchangeably names it with and without the + so I don't think even they know! I have the 24T model and, like you, have not seen the 32T model posted anywhere. |

I've create an sd card with Etcher and i put the original bios (Antminer-S9-all-201812051512-autofreq-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz) into the sd card, switch jumper for start from sd and run the s9.
I've download the ssh version and type this command from terminal.
Where's the error?
[...]
Did you run (linux): cd braiins-os_am1-s9_ssh_VERSION
virtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python3 .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip install -r ./requirements.txt
That is what fixed that error for me and was the recommendation from Braiins support. Seems you need to be using virtualenv and install everything in requirements.txt so that you have a proper python3 environment. |

As far as Inno is concerned they've missed the last 2 product launches if I'm not mistaken. This is going back to October when the t2t+ should have been shipped.
I'll dig a little more in my emails but I did have a back and forth going for a bit until they stopped responding, about the same time they sent a mass email that showed all recipients and the price drop.
Wow! That’s good to know! Thanks! I thought that they looked identical to the Antminers, just with an Insilicone sticker on the side!

The miner status is not visible........although the miner is working fine.
What can be done to resolve the following ?
Miner Status
API connection status: Not connected
Is the miner hashing pool side? |

I have few very basic ideas..  Is it the same result if you change the controller board port used for that hash board? Does removing the other hash board data cable + power temporarily and booting the miner with the one hash board make any difference? Do you get the same result if you swap controller board ports between the two hash boards? Yes. (well the chain #s change) No. Yes. I'm going to put it on the tech bench next week for a deeper look. But it's probably not worth putting in that much time. -Dave Have you tried to swapping the cables between boards to see if the cable has failed? |

Hi Guys,
I've just installed Braiins on an S9 and I had an issue when configuring cgminer; basically the power dropped as the system was saving the info in the config so now the cgminer page doesnt load properly.
I think I need to factory reset the miner back to default Braiins settings but I cant see how to do that? I used braiins-os_am1-s9_web_2018-11-27-0-c34516b0.tar.gz via the web panel from the Bitmain firmware to change over to Braiins.
I've tried to remove cgminer and re-install it but that hasnt worked.. infact, now the menu item for cgminer is gone..
Anyone have any tips?
Thanks
I would definitely recommend contacting Braiins support (through slushpool) and getting their help. Alternatively, you could attempt the Braiins install over SSH and see if you can flash a new, complete install that way. |

I'm on WIndows
I just don't get how to create a backup from my other identical s9
Thanx
I didn’t either until support walked me through the process. Your backup is just the original firmware from Bitmain and a directory on your computer named backup with a text file and a compressed config file. I used a raspi for my restore2factory as Linux, do you have a raspi? You don’t need any other machine, the process is installing a fresh flash of the BM fw with some other files needed to complete that flash |

Seems to me this is (clearly) the same person behind both accounts and this is all just an attempt to get people to visit their fringe website.

can it be done in some other way?
can someone please help?
thank you!
I just went through a similar process restoring my R4 to factory without having a previous backup and the process should be the same for you. The R4's don't have SD slots so this is all to be done manually, over ssh essentially from your computer to the S9. Are you running linux or windows? I did my restore from linux with a lot of help from Braiins support so that would be the OS with which I could be most helpful. |

I have an S9 and S9j both run great on 2018-11-27-0-c34516b0.
But I cant connect to some pools, with or without the asic boost. Do pools have to change anything or have I done something wrong?
Main pool I can not connect to is: stratum+tcp://bsv.svpool.com:3333
It always shows as Dead
are there any other servers available from svpool for you to mine to? Can you ping the stratum and see that its available? |
|
|

Haha well I guess I was the guinea pig! Hopefully they figure it out soon. If you manage to make a back up of the fw from your R4 please do let me know! |
|
|

I thought you had to have already made a backup of the factory firmware? Edit: the command references the backup you were *supposed* to have made before upgrading to bOS. You can't make this back up without using an SD card which my R4's lack a port for  I realized this after I installed, thinking I could always use my other R4 running Bitmain FW to make the back up SD card. |
|
|
|
I'm sure I checked the download page before, that must have been added recently...
I guess I'll give it a try.
Don't! Braiins support got back to me this morning saying there are a handful of variants of the R4 which the FW simply doesn't work on for unknown reasons. There is also no SD card slot so no way to revert to factory. I'm in a pickle with this R4 (glad I only did one machine) until Braiins figures this out. |

Yes you can reinsert it again if you want, in the exact same position it will click again and stay in the plug as it was.
Strange, I don't see the R4 mentioned anywhere in their documentation, web site, or first post of this Thread. Else i would have tried it on mine...
Will be giving the plug removing idea a try today, will update with results. Its listed the two places below:   |

The R4 is not supported, why did you do this? If you think the problem is the fan, just disconnect the 4th wire (I think its blue): gently take it out of the plastic plug by using a small flat screwdriver to let it lose; then the fan will be at 100%.
According to the Braiins page, the R4 is supported. Their support has confirmed this and added that they have tested it on multiple R4’s. I will have to try removing the 4th wire, thank you for the tip! Can it be reinserted without damage? |

I've installed this via the web portal on one of my R4's and am having problems getting it to hash. It will submit 3-4 shares before stopping. It appears to be linked to fan speed as when the fans drop from start up, around 3k rpm, the miner stops hashing. For some reason the fans drop as low as 800 rpm (never seen them that low) and my guess is thats causing a failure mode to kick in like it does on the s9's when people disconnect the fans to try and oil cool. As there is no way to control fan speeds through BOS at the moment, I can't test this theory. I'm in contact with Braiins support and will keep the thread update with how this issue gets resolved.

Yes, stop mining people so the diff lowers keep mining on Kano tho |

They were going to raise the tariff to 25% on ALL goods from China, that's what was postponed I believe.

Nice! Yah, this firmware is using the freq set in the pic from what I understand.
