I have two 13.5th autotunes that came with the Dec 6 firmware. Looks like the Dec 6 firmware takes 8 minutes to fully boot, Nov 29 was seven minutes. Got a bit leery at the 7 minute mark when the green light was not flashing. First autotune freaked me out the first time with the long boot sequence.
I have a pre-autotune S9 and recently I reverted it back to BM v1.0. Boot time takes less than 1 min and works for all temp ranges. The autotune fw for some reason would overheat when my temp raises above 0 degC. Can you provide the BM v.1 firmware?

As has been often repeated here: ALL miners from batch-16 and up requires BM v2 auto-tune firmware. The hash boards will not work with BM v1.

Bank transfer has been gone for a while now. I suspect everything is in pre-holiday mode there. If we don't see any new announcements soon(this week and next) then it will be like the second week in Feb before people come back from the holidays in China.

I do have the fw package. you should be able to find the link to download a few pages forward. someone posted there. if you still have trouble finding it shot me a pm. i can check my mailbox sometime later.

Given that ALL companies making chips at the 14/16nm node are having issues with them -- including the likes of IBM, Intel, Samsung, AMD, and others -- 16/14nm mining ASICS are are going to be here for a long while before ASIC and other boutique application chip mfgs seriously considering financing chips at lower nodes.

I see activity on the Bitmain site in Chinese. They have the R4 listed for sale now, and the L3 placeholder has been put back, but not for sale. No new activity on the English site.

Given the sharp drop in btc price, I expect sales to resume soon ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) Edit: A surprising finding, folks: The S9 sale link on Chinese Bitmain now carries 180-day warranty, though it's out of stock. The active R4 sale also carries 180-day warranty. I am not sure if this is to counter EBit's E9 rigs, which first promoted 180-day in this industry. I hope international sales will adopt the same policy in next batch!

I would consider this as good news only if I can send the warranty item to a US-based location. Paying $120 to send a board to China or much more than this to send the whole miner makes no sense (to me). In such context 90 vs 180 days is largely irrelevant.

Actually Bitmain has already announced that all miners purchased after Oct.1 2016 have a 180 day warranty from date of shipment. That should translate into more reliable equipment, but... ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)
