The bitaxeUltra: Open source Bitcoin miner based on the BM1366 ASIC

[Skot]

New firmware and www file out...

Fixes a bunch of bugs! I'm updating all of mine now...

Including this one....

"fix Best Difficulty can not be > 4.29G"


https://github.com/skot/ESP-Miner/releases/tag/v2.1.4

FWIW this bug only affected the best difficulty being stored to the non-volatile memory. Nothing to do with shares

The display didn't match up with the pool data on best share which is what I was referring to.

If you only look at the display for best share or the UI then you really wouldn't have accurate best share info.

I am glad to see this fixed!

we could use your good luck to test this fix out!

Fingers are crossed and all systems are a go! 

BTW... The "LuckyMiner" LV06 which is a complete rip off of the Bitaxe Ultra can also make use of the newest firmware version.

I found that the OTA update works fine.
Just make good and sure that you do the esp-miner.bin first. Wait at least 20 seconds after the "working" disappears. Restart and then do the www.bin and also wait for 20 seconds and then restart again and you should be up to date.

DO NOT RESTART WHILE YOU SEE WORKING ON THE SCREEN OR 100% YOU WILL BRICK THE LUCKYMINERS...

yea amount of 32 bit buffer overrun bugs in our new UI was fun tracking down...

btw hope you guys have simulated a very high share in your firmware...early miner firmware was notorious for bugs like this but in the actual shares, so the miner would crash/submit an invalid share for an actual block find...

It's firmware update time again!!!!

V2.1.6 released!

https://github.com/skot/ESP-Miner/releases/tag/v2.1.6

And confirmed this update does work on LuckyMiners that have firmware v2.1.4 installed!

[Sledge0001]

New firmware V2.1.7 out!

This seems to fix the pool setting the initial difficulty upon connection.

I can confirm this will work with the LuckyMiner LV06 units as well but you must be patient and let the upgrade complete. If you try to leave the page while the units say working you very well may brick the units!

If you upgrade esp-miner on your lucky miner it will set the stratum user agent to Bitaxe and nobody will be able to tell you're running a shitty knockoff

The best part is they now put stickers on the LV06 warning you not to update the firmware! Yeah.. That leaves me with great trust!
