Antminer D3 Blissz firmware (10/12 v1.12 update)

[blissz]

Maybe easier to share just the modified file?
we can then push with a winscp..

This is how I ran it at first, but as the linux rootfs is loaded into RAM, the modded files are gone after a reboot... Therefore I tried to modify / rebuild the u-boot ramdisk image with the modded files included, but something went wrong

Good news, I believe, me and many more are suffering with D3, thank you my friend

Nothing to add, just bookmarking.

I imagine you also try to take the latest firmware on bitmain site, and just add your file into it?

that could be nice to wait for 1st version , at least for fan noise and 15ghs / 750w

Hundreds suffers from this shit

If I am unable to unbrick my control board, I will share the modded files, so you can upload it with winscp, but that's not a nice solution...

You tried to unbrick with sd card slot? I think its accepts firmware from it.

That's what I am going to do now.

Good news: the unbrick method for the s7 works for the d3

let's try again now haha

Good news, if you want some testers we are here

First milestone is reached: the first flashable firmware image is a fact.  

Please give a reply in this thread if you're willing to test it. It's really experimental so here are the terms:

- I am not responsible for any damage to your miner, flash at your own risk
- You're not in panic when you see HW errors because of the low voltage
- You do have a watt meter
- You're willing to test and give me feedback for improvement.
- You're not going to complain about the 1.5% mining fee.

what you will get:
- no more high speed fan's during startup
- no more low fan warnings (the fan speed is fully unlocked)
- a first version of the unlocked voltage.

If you do join this beta test, please test the following:
set the speed to 400Mhz on your bitmain firmware and measure the amount of watts needed.
flash the beta firmware and set fan speed to manual at 20%
set the speed to 400Mhz and try to get as low as you can on the voltage settings before you see hardware errors.

PM me then the following information:
- your batch
- the wattage at 400mhz on the bitmain firmware
- The voltage on the custom firmware so that you run at the same wattage as the bitmain firmware
- The lowest possible voltage setting for 400mhz on the custom firmware. (before getting HW errors)
- the wattage measured at the new voltage
- your fan RPM speed at 20% fan setting

ofcourse if you run in any other problems please PM me as well.

Of course I agree with all your condition, I'm ready to test
thanks man!

You got a pm. Please let us know soon if flashing was ok, so I have the confidence to send it to others

I could test too if you like.

edit oh n/m, I don't have a watt meter.

No problem I sent you the link though. Keep an eye on the temperatures as it will give some feedback as well. so run at 400mhz on the bitmain firmware at 20% fan speed and write down the temps. Flash the custom firmware and see at which voltage you get the same temps and then lower the voltage to see how low you can go before getting hardware errors.

ok, will let you know. how long of a sample do you want? Run for 30 mins and record the values?

5 minutes per run is fine, as it will heat up enough already.
if you don't see HW errors in 5 minutes it's fine as well. A few Hw errors every hour is the optimal setting as you're just on the limit

I want to test but I dont have a watt meter:(

I can test if you want I have september batch ... waiting link for download .. thanks
