Still seems a bit unorganized. Hopefully the new firmware will help out as im interested in the a4s just hope this all doesnt get strung along. Anyone hear if they are going to open source it to the community, it will only help their sales if so.

Rummor has it, the software will be open sorced but I'm over here with my fingers crossed that a fix comes soon, would have held off on selling my a2 if I knew this was going to happen |

Innosilicon stated that it would be - but no specific timeframe of when. Sooner would be better, and it would be nice if the A2 software got open-sourced at the same time. |

Is cloe the official inno spokesperson here for them or is the inno user the official btctalk person. Would be nice if they had a person dedicated here to handle the back and forth. |

Finally got my cables issues sorted for my PSU that powers the second A4. Finally got it running today. It is running the 1.0.0T version of the software and so far has stayed up since I started it. Can't say that for the 1.0.2 version. That thing is as stable as a one legged chair. If the pattern continues into tomorrow I will reimage the the 1.0.2 back to the stock build. This is just nuts. I mean the stock build is far from stable, but my 1.0.2 is crazy unstable.
Of course LTC drops like a rock after we get the A4's. Go figure.

Anyone get the new firmware v0.0.2 to work for Batch 1? I am getting Error getting device list: ERR: socket connect(0) failed  Yes, works great using the stock settings that come preconfigured from Inno. 815Mv/1200Mhz. Note that Batch 1 machines were built before 15th Oct. Check the sticker on the back plate. The other way you can tell them from Batch 2, 3, etc is that when you power them on the red light stays on solid before you start mining. With the batch 2 + miners it flashes until the card starts hashing. HTH. |

BTW what is the best version to use for batch 2.. I have a single unit that is batch 2 also..Thanks |

Most I get on 1.0.0T is about 48 hours before card drops but I can stop the miner, and start it a couple of times to get the cards back online without having to power cycle. I agree on 1.0.2 -- its basically worthless to use. |

So far I have not seen any improvements in any updates. Batch one latest update did not seem to help but it is to early to tell. Still testing. That would be V0.0.2 for Batch one only |

This does not sound like good news. This is the email I got back when I said my blades drop after 30 minutes or so
Well I don't know where you got the info that "the blades from dropping out after 25-30 minutes"....
Recently yes I got feedback about the dropping of blades. We are investigating all the test cases on our sides now.
Sure we will keep updating the firmware for customers if need.

Well after running the v1.0.0 vs v1.0.2 for 24 hours side by side. The v1.0.0T is far more stable than v1.0.2. I have been battling the v1.0.2 and it just will not stay up. Constant cycling/restarting, dropping cards. I would suggest everyone stay away from the v1.0.2. Not that v1.0.0T is a gem by any means, but the two compared side by side the v1.0.0T wins.
I swear the A4's are going to drive me to drink! I hope we can get this sorted out soon. If we can get these working reliably as my A2 used to hash then I would be interested in buying a couple more of these. But until we can get this crash, drop cards, instability issues fixed I will be holding off.

I can confirm at least for me V.0.0.2 for Batch 1 is not better. I just switched back to original batch one software. |

See if you can get the v1.0.0T here. I just uploaded it, but I have no idea if it is accessible. https://www.mediafire.com/?tht3uazklxuq9z8 |

So yeah, someone posted a setup guide and apparently the A4 uses the Raspberry Pi default login for SSH.  Just tested it on mine works fine. 2. SSH remote access and control for your Raspberry Pi Control unit. There are many ways to do it, and many programs but this allows you to remote access and control a Raspberry Pi https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/ssh The default login information. Username: pi Password: raspberry Credit for this information goes here > A4 Setup Guide - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1680082.0 |

Got this in the mail today..... dang... I placed an order recently - and I want the new price not the old price. Also, they really need to fix the firmware issues first... before doing a firesale! I am speechless.  |
If I provided you good and useful info or just a smile to your day, consider sending me merit points to further validate this Bitcointalk account ~ useful for future account recovery...
