OK I ask for help and you try and bitch me out, would you not consider the page 1 opening post to be a manual (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1173963.0). You fuck face, try harder. I fucking hate people like you in so-called support forums.

What does your cgminer screen look like? Post a screen shot so we can see. Do you have a Compac (and not a 2Pac)?

OK will do thanks for the useful suggestion, and thanks for trying to help. I figured it out. There was a cap touching a resistor near chip 51219 (5v reg?) and one of the diodes was leaky, basically a bad build. And yes it's a 2pac, sorry to no be clear on that


Update: pin 2 of the resistor actually does go to ground according to the schematics, so the bridged cap/res doesn't matter, if the chip is being used as per standard usage.

OK, I am in agony with this device. I have tried the latest BFGminer and the latest cgminer with os x and linux using various routers and I still can not get this stick to hash more than 542.3Mh/s average!

I have made sure that the device is powered by a 5v, 2 amp supply, I have tried EVERY variation of core voltage in EVERY miner currently available and I have read every word of the manual, but still this miner is just slow as sh*t.

I believe the default clock speed is 150 so I have not messed with that, I just want standard hashing speed of 10-15g.

Do I have a defective miner? My previous experience is with antminer S1 and bit fury asic miners using cgminer, I'm no expert but after 12 hours of work I think nothing should be this hard.

Is there any way someone can help me? Let me know what info you need.

PS I am cooling with an Arctic breeze USB fan, which has always served me well.  
um, these things don't do 10-15g on default speed.. i think the default speed is 100? and it will be 5.5g.. 150 will give you 8g. you will need to clock these well past 250 to get 15g out of them.



Hi. That is very pedantic of you

you claim to have read the manual? There isn't one. The only version of software your going to get to work is VH's fork of CGMiner. Go back to page ONE and start reading again.
