Hi all,

I posted on the mining forum about a problem I had and it got deleted (I must be new...). Anyway, the info was helpful and relevant so I'm going to tack it on here so it can help the next person.

I was using an SD card to attempt to boot a number of used Antminer S9's that I purchased used. The unit appeared to boot but all I got was a solid red status LED light and no network. I tried booting the stock firmware from NAND and resetting the network there and then booting from SD again. No luck.

It was recommended that I add

Code:
cfg_override=no

to the uEnv.txt file. I did that and it worked! The unit was given a proper IP address and I was able to get in to the Braiins OS web interface to configure the miner.

I don't remember the poster who helped me out now, since the original post is missing... but thank you!

I have a similar issue to this where I was using the beta version (braiins-os_am2-s17_sd_2020-11-05-0-7f7650dc-20.11-plus-nightly) on SD and was all fine and dandy but when I went to flash it to the NAND now it will no longer boot up and only gives the RED light. I've tried resetting and also boot from the factory SD image with no luck.

The bigger question is what are you doing on viabtc? I assume your mining btrash or her ugly sister?

P.S. I love the new FW BTW good job!

Been running custom firmware for over 2 years. As long as you get a good one I have actually been able to extend the life of my miners due to being able to run it cooler and use less electricity.

I am running 600 / 17.2v @ 35TH/s
I am only doing 62C PCB temp.
I don't want to push things until autotune is out or the weather cools down.

Thanks so much for this firmware.
Any idea of an ETA for the Autotune?
For some reason my T17 seems to decrease hashrate the longer it is on.
It's like 40C here ATM so I assume it's heat related. For this reason I am underclocking but I am trying to avoid going back to BM firmware.
If it is going to be a few weeks then I'll go back to stock but if it is only a few days away then I'll obviously wait.

You can just buy a new control board from Bitmain. I am 99% sure you can reload the software from an SD card just like you can if you brick an L3+
I personally just ordered a new control board $60 USD + postage

I just tried a different control board and still the same error
"T9+_fixed450_noPreHeat_test"

I tried this on an Antminer T9+ and it is not hashing.
I am getting this error "Logic Version   T9+-nopreheat"

I have flashed back to factory firmware and reset to defaults and still no luck.
Also restored from a backup and still nothing.
