Wish we could just get one that works.
It would be nice, wouldn't it ... but there again, just when problems continue with the S3 miner firmware they just crapped on all the L1 pe-order people ...

I'm curious how many people were having issues and upgraded firmware vs those who upgraded for the sake of upgrading.
Seriously, if it ain't broken don't fix it. I've got S3(+) from multiple batches and I haven't updated any of them. They all run 24/7 without issue.

The standard Antminer S3(+) fans (JDH1238B) do their job of cooling, but their noise level is evocative of a turbine rather than a high tech electronic device.
There is a fine replacement for them:
NOISEBLOCKER NB-eLoop B12-P
Just google it to find a nearby reseller.
It's much smaller (height 25mm instead of 37mm) but delivers nearly the same airflow — up to 132,4 m³/h.
The manufacturer states a life span of 120,000 hours and grants a 6 year (!) warranty, which completely backs up the relatively high price (about 20 bucks per fan).
Current measurements after 3 hours of full load hashing (Firmware from 2014-08-26, no shutdowns):
Fan Frequency Temp 1740 Hz 40 °C 1560 Hz 47 °C
Noise level: Barely hearable, per manufacturer well below 30dB. No comparison to the approximately 55+db fo the originals fans at full load.
No, I'm not an employee of Noiseblocker. I simply wanted to share my experiences with a fine peace of hardware that finally renders the Antminer into an equipment fitting any location, even a parlor.
For people with noise issues this may be worth looking into. I prefer to go the other direction. I have all my S3's blue wire clipped on BOTH fans. I overclock and run temps below 30 (26-29) with fan speeds of 3600. They are loud as fuck but I could care less because they are in a server room pulling 20kw and it never gets over 68 degrees in the room. Heat is the enemy...it must be defeated or it will defeat you! I've had BE Cubes running uninterrupted for 1yr. and S1's that are going to run 2yrs. so cooling them properly is something I take very seriously!

Can I get some beta testers for a new S3 firmware please? Download link is here, it *should* be good to go but as you know.... Rolls back to the last good patch in Oct (1024), but fixes voltage adjustment and the important reset button. Hopefully.... let me know. MD5: 7DF1B12D28B25E10AAC37E2EAFC7397B [This is 1219 = 19th Dec 2014 firmware]

I have 7DF1B12D28B25E10AAC37E2EAFC7397B for the bin file, can anyone confirm they have the same?

Well no time like the present then. Once more unto the breach, dear friends. I am holding my breath ..... don't be long! It flashed 2 x S3 one early batch, one later with QC sticker, and they took. Did direct flash over LAN cable not WIFI. Give me 15min to get GHs reading, I've set mine at 231.25, no change to voltage (voltage blank). This was running fine in October firmware update. I will get back ASAP 15min Update: Both sitting at 0.44 Th/s and 0.45 Th/s on 5s, total average is a bit low, as didn't seem to spike at the beginning like they usually do. Lets see how they do over the next couple of hours, as I was getting them dumping hash rate (50GH/s 100GH/s), and going bananas, after latest firmware. GHash.IO 15min average 1.1 Th/s over 15min average, nice! From 2 x S3's PS All help needed, don't supposed someone could help and potentially divert me from a bullet, and advice me on serial connection un-bricking an S3? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=889206.msg9897190#msg9897190
