I bought a used S9 13.5Th (not S9i nor S9j) last week and I'm having some issues trying to upgrade it to the latest firmware. That wouldn't be much problem per se, but with the current firmware it's not even hashing (shows 0.0Gh/s). Right now it has the version from May 3rd 2017, which let you chose the frequency (550,600,650). Here you have the Sytem details:
Miner Type Antminer S9
Hostname antMiner
Model GNU/Linux
Hardware Version 16.8.1.3
Kernel Version Linux 3.14.0-xilinx-gb190cb0-dirty #57 SMP PREEMPT Fri Dec 9 14:49:22 CST 2016
File System Version Wed May 3 18:58:52 CST 2017
BMminer Version 2.0.0
Uptime 9:33
Load Average 0.17, 0.29, 0.35
So far I have tried:
- Restart from GUI
- Reset from GUI
- Reset using button
- Replacing PSU with a know good one
- Upgrading to ALL S9 firmwares from Bitmain download page --> ALL of them failed to install, "Incorrect Firmware!!" - including the firmware that right now is installed
- Also tried the Antminer S9 Fix Upgrade firmware --> "Incorrect Firmware!!"
