By the looks of it they are more concerned with sales right now then fixing current issues. I really think they need an associate here to answer questions. A good amount of sales can be made (me being one of them) so long as i know they are not going to go the route of knc.....we shall see

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. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fm0jnug4.png&t=665&c=ieHIZ0PB9iuuhA) Maybe they need to fix the miner before running sales like this.. After owning this I would not recommend to anyone to buy at this time. The price will only continue to go down. This is a 245Mhs mining rig not 280Mhs. False advertising until they fix the problem if it can be fixed

I agree with everything wheelz says, I'd really like to get one of these up and running but thanks to this thread I'm very worried.

Anyone have version 1.0 that they can upload my miner came with 1.0.2 just want to give it a try to see if it would work with my a4?
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/?tht3uazklxuq9z8Than you it worked hope this runs better than 1.0.2

Still may be as dumb a purchase thou as 2 a4's I turned down my zcash machines today, pointed them back to Monero. I could have made maybe a few bucks more on zcash for a few days, but I believe XMR might fare better in the long run. I wonder if Inno is going to continue charging a premium for using BTC with this sale. I'm not willing to pull the trigger until the firmware shapes up. Odd that they run a promotion before we get a stable product.

I didn't even get the email announcing the sale. So maybe they already removed me from their mailing list! LOL If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all. Looks like my PSU on the second miner has already bit the dust. The PSU keeps shutting down, and now won't start. So I just ordered a replacement and will see if I can get Corsair to honor their 10 year warranty... I am not holding my breath at this point. If Inno would let us buy these for BTC at this sale price right now I am willing to bet they would sell some units right now. Even with the problems which I think Inno will get sorted out and the community when they can get their hands on the open source software will probably do some pretty cool things with the A4's. But the wire transfer thing is costly, and time consuming. That is really a huge negative. So Inno if you are listening let us order these for BTC at the sale price right now and you will sell some units. I might even go out on a limb and order another A4 right now if you were to extend that offer to BTC. Please consider this as an option and provide us your BTC address. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

From my understanding 1st batch units have different firmware than 2nd batch units? If I got this right..they could just walk from support after 45 days on such first batch stuff. (Not like it looks they are not bothering with support anyway ...just saying) All very strange..... Only makes sense if this is like Sfards and a side angle for a bit..with the bulk already gone or going to some or all of the big data hall IPO investors.....a wave the flag on this for a month make the company look good..use the rest of the masked chips....and poof..... then meh....move on to other things with your nice 14nm production line.....lots better chips to make with that infrastructure in place now bought by the IPO $$$ then ASIC miners. From the sidelines this just looks real weird to me. No clue.

I just received new firmware from Dominique @ Innosillicon. V1.0.3 https://www.dropbox.com/s/fuyz1r7cy4pkeir/G5-20-V1.0.3.rar?dl=0I am testing now. To be honest I have had no troubles with version 1.0.0(T) as long as the machines run in a cold environment. If anyone is interested I have had them on MRR for the past couple days so you can see my hash rate here: http://rig.rent/rigs/34677X Update: 2hrs hashing with new firmware on half my units. No dropped cards or cgminer restarts Update #2: After 4hrs the cgminer in the newest firmware stops/restarts automatically. All hash boards were running after restart. Hash rate seems to be a little better with this version. Will run and see how it does over the next 24 hrs.

Thanks for this and this update, I moved mine to a very cool room and noticed similar results, I think I'm on day 3 now without a card drop but I have seen restarts on 1.0.0T. I'm downloading this update but I'm definitely going to wait and see yours and others results before I mess with it as I jumped on 1.0.2 when it came out and that was a mistake. Fortunately I purchased a 2nd SD card so its easy for me to switch between versions, unfortunately I have to take a trip in the car to change it out now.

Nicehash. However, I have boards dropping like flies. Still remotely commanding the PDU to power cycle the rigs when boarsd drop. I have 1 unit dropped board 3 times in 1 hour.

Im dropping in the v1.0.3 into my miner with the dropping blades to see if that helps. One difference I see is that its pre configured to run at 820mv instead of 815.
Has anyone tried any of the "Low Power" modes to see if they are more stable?
So-far, no luck with the v1.0.3, same 2 blades keep dropping within minutes of starting.

When I received mine, it was configured at 800mhz and I ran it for about 24 hours with 800mv The highest I went with 800mv was 1000mhz, it wasn't until I switched to 1200mhz did I start having board drop issues.

So any indications to how many of these will actually be produced? Scrypt was good for the past few years because there was always a shortage of ASICs and difficulty was never much of an issue.
