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

[dndssc]

I want to turn back the algo issue.

Here is a comparision

Quark and Qubit algorithms can profit more than 30 $ while the x11 can profit only 2 $

These values are for 10 ghs . So in case of 20 ghs mining speed , profits will be double.

Baikal owners really very lucky . I hope, this topic will succeed the same thing for everyone.

True, the only way for have a roi with november batch is to mine a single algo that is included in x11 algo

@blissz thanks for the firmware and great work. Setting the ASIC power to lowest setting makes it set it back to Default Setting. Does setting power to 1 makes it the lowest setting?

Yes the default = lowest.

[blissz]

The best result that I get from new D3 modded firmware is 16.8 GH/s at 840W of power

how to do that plz

I have setup 462 with lowest ASIC voltage and fan 30%

My turn to feedback..

I have more or less the same result.. 462/lowest ASIC/16.2Ghs/810W.
Running at 25 minutes with 0 HW. Chip Temp@75/73/77 & PCB Temp 61/57/61. Fan speed percentage NOT set. Fan runinng at 3800 RPM/3900RPM

Compared to Unflashed Nov 19.3Gs..
487/17.2Ghs/1050W
Running at 25 minutes with 0 HW. Chip Temp@77/75/83 & PCB Temp 60/58/64. Fan speed percentage NOT set. Fan runinng at 5250RPM/5100RPM

Really nice to see such efficiency improvements

[mohicans]

A BIG thanks to blissz and whoever involved making this works... everyone will be looking forward for the next step..

p/s update.. After running 1hr 35m, 3 HW

Is Bitmain looking at releasing a firmware for the Antminer D3 to enable alternative algorithm mining?

I would really recommend developing firmware to enable mining of other algorithms as Bitmain's reputation is at stake.

The D3 is currently not profitable at all and it is still a new miner.

And the response -

We brought the D3 to production in response to customer demand for Dash coin miners. Our D3 miner is designed for maximum efficiency to mine Dash coin with the X11 algorithm. This is programmed into the hardware and cannot be changed.

Profitability of mining depends largely on the difficulty of the Blockchain and the exchange rate of the coin, which are outside our control.

Mining altcoins is speculative and carries a number of risks as well as potential rewards. We encourage our customers to research these as with any investment.

The question is;
Are they right or wrong about the algo addition capability
If it is  the ultimate truth , this is very bad news.

[reimon85]

oh crap my antminer goes to ultra high fan speed every hour just after ending dev fee ,  pls someone how to avoid this? , and i noticed that the prority is 1 on devfee so if the pool goes down i loose mining? , have someone the original firmware??

you can find original firmware here https://shop.bitmain.com/support.htm?pid=00720170915192851224mJ36J1ap066E

I also think to rollback, i'm not sat about the dev fee, honnestly I would prefer to pay few bucks to have the firmware without this

After quit our hope the thing is, maybe we can´t mine another algos according to that respond but what about find the code to do the miner works with just one of the 11 algos that be part of x11..... we are continue in that journey to find an answer

What do you want to hear from bitmain?
Okay, let's unlock the D3?

Of course they will say that it is impossible.

the changes that our friend made with the FW, if they asked they would say that it was impossible.

Can the fan don't go to high speed when switching mining & dev fee? its very annoying..lol..

I agree thats exactly how I'd EXPECT them to respond!!!!

I get it
I also thought: "default answer"

[D3 Antminer]

Actually I dont (want) to believe them also.

The interesting one is ; Baikal uses this argument during the pre sale advertisements.
X10 Giant  already has 5 algo and they promise that two  more
but the bitshit company does not make any effort, even though they owe it.
even iphone could  hacked many times. 
Hope this initiative will be succeded.

Don't worry, if the dev pool goes down it will go to the second one. If that goes down it will switch back to your pools. The fan bug is indeed really annoying and I will fix that in the next version soon

[blissz]

1.After changing the low speed fan, the speed can not be recognized
2.The web page  is no option to change the voltage
3.The noise will get bigger in a moment
4.I flashed two D3 is all that question

for some reason you are still on the default bitmain firmware. Please download again and flash this file:

[jujitsika]

I am a long time lurker, and finally created an account here specifically to say 'thank you' for the time and effort you are putting into these firmware modifications.

You are awesome.
