Pressure really does make diamonds.

If people could do this because of the desperate need to make the Antminer D3 profitable. I wonder if it can also be done to make the Antminer S9 or any other antminer profitable. A simple decrease in power consumption to the S9 would make it loads more profitable. Esp. for large mining farms. If you know of any such tweak to the same or similar to an Antminer i am sure the bitcoin community would be very much grateful.

so why is there a devfee? aside from the fact your like every other greedy fucker trying to get there slice of the pie. doubt you remade the whole firmware, Id bet you took there firmware and just added some fix's. nice to see people stealing other people work. and trying to make a quick buck, hope bitmain sues your ass

Said the guy who can't even write one correct sentence in English!

Listen CryptoWatcher420.... Blissz is trying to help us make our D3 miners profitable, contrary to "Bitmain" who flooded the market with a miner that became unprofitable before the buyers even received it!
"Shitmain" is in fact the one we need to sue for stealing our money and delivering a useless hair-dryer instead of a miner! We are happy to support Blissz with a small fee for his efforts, if you don't like this, then don't use his firmware!
Anyway... why are you here on this thread in the first place? Are you paid by Bitmain to write this garbage?... or are you just an ignorant fool who is just here to attack those doing something for the community? In both cases: GTFO!  Angry

initramfs.bin.SD is a binary compiled for arm arquitecture , u must get a x64/x86 version of the executable or run in an arm
Ho can I do? Please explain me.

#Cut the header, leave rest
dd if=initramfs.bin.SD of=initramfs.gz bs=1 skip=64

#Make a temp directory for rootfs
mkdir rootfs_unpacked
cd rootfs_unpacked

#Unpack initramfs to designated directory gzip then cpio
zcat ../initramfs.gz | cpio -i

Profit))
If I want to repack all files to test on my antminer, how can I do?

WARNING THIS WILL (probably) VOID THE WARRANTY ON YOUR MINER





18/11 recommended UPDATE

Download:
https://mega.nz/#!Dp5HXBDI!KW1bMbljdTpuq_c4mOxAO6Sft7_-TMEXKn9bxk43Smw


Instructions:
Recommended, set the miner frequency at 400mhz and set your fan speed manual at 25% before flashing.
Flash by going to "System" -> "Upgrade" -> "Flash new firmware image"
After flashing, check the advanced settings page and start at the lowest voltage setting and 400mhz. From there increase your frequency to see how high you can go at the lowest voltage setting.

Changes 18/11:
- fixes the pool priority, it will now mine on your own backup pools when your first pool goes down.
- Dev fee lowered to 1,5% (it was actually 1,66%)

Changes 17/11:
- fixes the high fan speed when switching to the dev pool and back to your main pool
- fixes the close PIC and need reboot!!! error on the original bitmain firmware
- Made the ASIC default voltage less confusing as it is now comparable to the default bitmain voltage.
- Lowered the AUTO profile fan RPM's a little bit.


know issues:

when using the AUTO fan profile, the fan starts at a too high RPM after powering up.

It's really experimental so here are the terms:
- I am not responsible for any damage to your miner, flash at your own risk
- You're not going to complain about the 1.5% mining fee.

what you will get:
- saves upto 20% energy consumption on lowest voltage setting so it runs your miner cooler / save energy costs.
- in the lowest voltage setting you can run this miner really silent now.
- no more high speed fan's during startup on fixed fan mode
- no more low fan warnings (the fan speed is fully unlocked).
- no more temperature reading errors / reboots
- a first version of the unlocked voltage. It's possible to both undervolt and overvolt. I advice to set it to the lowest possible setting and increase the frequency until you get HW errors. Then you found the sweetspot of your miner.
- possibility to flash back to the default bitmain firmware.



Some startup settings to get you going:


for silence and best efficiency / miner lifetime (my personal preference)

Expected hashrate: 15Mh/s to 17 Mh/s
Expected power usage: 700 - 780 watt

set the frequency at "400mhz", set the voltage to "lowest". Now slowly increase the frequency until you see HW errors. When you have a few HW errors an hour you found the sweet spot
set the fan speed manual somewhere between 20 - 30 percent. Chip temp should be somewhere between 75 - 80 degrees max.

For stock performance at lowest possible power usage

Expected hashrate: 18-5Mh/s to 19Mh/s
Expected power usage: 950 - 1100 watt

set the fan speed manual to 50% (adjust this later to your needs. Max chip temp should be 85 deg)
set the frequency at "525mhz", set the voltage to "15". Now decrease the voltage until you see HW errors. When you have a few HW errors an hour you found the sweet spot

For Extreme performance (this is not recommended for 24/7 usage)

Expected hashrate: 21Mh/s
Expected power usage: 1300 - 1400 watt

set the fan speed manual to 100% (adjust this later to your needs. Max chip temp should be 85 deg)
set the frequency at "600mhz", set the voltage to "20". Now decrease the voltage until you see HW errors. When you have a few HW errors an hour you found the sweet spot


Special thanks goes to:
- All the first beta testers
- cryptonitro for this awesome new Antminer icon

Support on this mod project is more than welcome as I want to have a spare D3 for modding the software. A (damaged) donor D3 or S9 would be very welcome as well, as this baby really needs some mods too Smiley

I get this error when trying to flash the latest firmware from OP "tar: invalid magic tar: short read". All I did was download the .tar and follow instructions. Please check compile.

strange.. did you unpack something already? You shouldn't do that. Maybe try to download it again an retry. If it doesn't work, let me know so I can help you remotely if you want.

I'm successfully compile (for build test, not for any changes testing) without any modification a cgminer from bitmaintech fork (under ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS).
File size about 843 kb. TopicStarter, why your cgminer in your custom firmware is so bigger?!
Can you show flags you used for building, may be some is not needed for D3..
you're referring to this?
https://github.com/bitmaintech/cgminer-dash

You try to inject them in d3 with ssh?
Yes, this code.
But I haven't D3 (till 5 dec).
pm me the cgminer, i will put them with ssh and i will try it

br1mcoin : Savings & Wealth Creation Coin x11 Algo
In summary,
No one care fan speed , voltage etc unless additional algo
Because most of us will shut it down if no profit as is now..
I am asking all legendary , full members
Please reach the related senior develeopers
I am also wrote  to cgminer( not interested)  developer and gentarkin ( not replied  yet)

But I am newbie finally.
 I dont recognise all develepers who are capable of.
This will not easy even it is posssible.
Possibly more support needed , probably  a team work is a must.

No one say this is( new algo ) is possible including  Blissz actually.

I have highly   lost  my hopes

D3 and profitable? No sir, that's not even remotely true.
With another 50K miner to comes online, best bet is to shutdown your miner.

What OP did is at least u can still turn on your miner, make some tiny profit, by reducing the power consumption. Not everyone are having cheap electricity.

Where is default webpage source codes ? which source codes should i look ? is it located in "cgminer-dash-master" source codes ?
As i understand  antminer's main board is a beagleboard black and , so as i understand cgminer should be just an application on it.
And firmware source belongs to the just cgminer , is this correct ?
To add new menu web page we need to modify beaglebone black firmware to modify web pages which belongs to gui ?

Onix coin in X11 is profitable?

It looks like it, I just checked on yobit and yes it is very profitable.  I'll make a wild guess as to why, and that's the situation in Venezuela.

This is hearsay, but I just heard from a friend who is waiting for 3 D3's that his client ordered, (December batch as far as I know) that after they contacted Bitmain complaining about the D 3 situation, Bitmain offered too keep their money in credit and they can then order other machines next year when available and only pay the difference, if there is any.

He will send me the mail from Bitmain as soon as he receives it from his client.

As I said this is hearsay at the moment.

I've adressed bitmain with the same request, but they didn't accepted my complain...I did it 1,5 weeks ago.... Undecided

This apparently happened last Friday
