Socket Connection Failed and if you see it within 5 minutes, S9 may still be in the booting process. (Specially within the first 3 minutes)
...SNIP
Can you take a look at my issue and make a recommendation?I have another dead hash board two weeks out of warranty. If anyone can take a look at some pictures and offer advice it is appreciated. I may have bad solder joints. Close-ups of possible failure locations here: http://imgur.com/a/iS4O8Many pictures of board and miner here: http://imgur.com/a/6tZeOI added a screenshot of BMminer showing that POV of the problem board: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FiSz70J6.jpg&t=665&c=orQK4vhhrOG88g) This is what happens after 1 minute exactly. EDIT: It stays this way

Transaction fees go to the pools and the pools decide to pay them to the miners. Anything else, including off-chain solutions are stealing and not the way Bitcoin was intended to function. Make the block size set by the pool. Pool = miners and they get the choice.

Same to me after 3 weeks run the miners (S9 600, Batch 15), sent 2 hashboards to HK to claim warranty last week. Costs me $55.. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Just found out this morning, another hashboard is not working....Damn! ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) what happen to S9?? i never have problems with my S7 hashboards before (only fan was broken).

Item like this, if you receive it, USA/RU/UA locations will not charge you to solder them back on. (do request shipping fee be paid both way tho...)BitmainWarranty emailed getting my loony batch-1 board and are looking at it. Looks like another board going to be headed their way even though the miner IS in warranty, even with repair cost is faster/prolly cheaper than sending it to Hong Kong.
I've heard about the loosely attached inductor in some hash boards that makes the board not to show up, but I guess that this is not that kind of a case? 1st I've heard of that and good to know. I'll find out tomorrow when I pull the board out during lunch. Here is a picture of it (click for zoom): ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FGpsJOGb.jpg&t=665&c=d4L8w21QY0x3Pw) And here is a video about that kind of a case by Youtube user "Yemira": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiDkCCBIq58[/quote] [/quote] If I see this on my board I have a 75w iron just for this kind of thing so will be an easy repair for me to do ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Any um' 'side effects' of the bad Vcore power to be aware of that this kind of fault could produce as in possible damage to the ASIC's? [/quote] What is the error? not to show up? or is it xxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxxx all? or just 00000 00 0000 0000 0000000 000000000000 ?

There is no definite Error status for this. If it is loose and you can move it with finger, then yes, that is one of the problem. You may want to get it send in for the warranty or get it fixed. Self Repair on item like this may voids the warranty for future damage tho. (Something to consider as re-worked PCB can be easily seen by the engineer while in diagnostic)

I purchased a couple of controllers from yoshi of bitmainwarranty it works now. At this point I am looking to send in a dead hashboard from batch one and pay for repairs as it is out of warranty. I will also send in the dead controller from the august batch 9? as it is under warranty. I am grateful 4 units keep working and afraid they will break . I am also happy that I hav used bitmainwarranty for repairs as NJ,USA to CO,USA is faster. @ bitmainwarranty I SENT AN EMIAL to yoshi of bitmainwarranty today as I am looking to pay for the batch 1 hashboard repair and get an rma on the batch 9? controller.

Fortunately for me, I've had a very solid last 6 weeks. No real problems, I don't turn them off unless absolutely necessary. Just let them run and don't mess with them seems to work great.

Looks line one of mine has had a more catastrophic failure.
That always happens for my miners too, during the startup for a short moment. But they start hashing normally. Yes I know that, so 4 hours later no change. SSH'ed into the miner, looking at the logs seems there is a problem with my hosts DNS resolution Ok, good to know that if that status stays for a longer period it could be caused for example by a DNS resolution problem. Yep, put the IP of the pool in as a backup and it started right back up. Spoke too soon, seems that my little DNS problem was perhaps a symptom of a bigger issue with my hosting provider, looks all sorted now though!

thanks i guess its worth a shot , i thought about a small drop of jb weld but i doubt it would conduct the heat from the chip to the heatsink

Is the power supply output giving out 12VDC? First thing I would check is if the power supply is okay.
