Did I destroy my Jalapeno?

[mwax321]

Flashed it to 1.2.5 firmware with my AVR. Was running at 5.6GH/s, and is now struggling to run at 4GH/s.  Sometimes it will only start up at 1GH/s.

These things are super flimsy,  and I realized when i opened the case that the heatsink was so loose that it's a wonder it didn't just fall off.

I also notice the sticker under the board which has a "Date Completed" written in, but the "QA approved" and "QA date" are empty .

Anyone run into this issue? Did I burn out a chip?

If you flashed it and you have the result you claim, then yes, you did something wrong

do you have a new one?

do you have a new one?

Label says made in Sept 2013, so fairly new.

maybe try to flash it with the new 1.2.9 firmware

[123orangebud]

if you dont find it, i can give it to you. i flashed about 30 Jalas

So I tried the 1.2.9 firmware and it claimed it was hashing at 60GH/s, with 0 Accepted and 0 HW errors.

did you commented Single out and Little Single in?

if it not works - pls try this firmware
BitForce_SC-master-Tarkin-modded.zip
The build .elf is in the Debug Folder.

did you try 1.2.5 with different settings ? 7 8 9?

Hope that i can helped you.

Apparently I thought I did but I didn't . Maybe I did in the earlier firmware I downloaded, which was the first one I tried.  Just flashed it to latest. Seems to still be very low and running really cold. (24C)

Hell!!!!

Tried all those firmware versions. Nothing seems to work. Is there a setting that I may have overlooked that I need to set for Jalapenos?
I guess that wouldn't explain the pre-compiled versions I've tried.

How do you dump the diagnostics so that you can see which cores are working?
