Can people share the file names of any firmwares they have downloaded please? I am interested to know what versions exist. I am aware of these:

s9-20160622-650M-for-low-voltage.tar.gz

s9-20160624-650M.tar.gz
s9-20160624-600M.tar.gz
s9-20160624-550M.tar.gz

Antminer-S9-201607131442-12.92T-600M-security.tar.gz
Antminer-S9-201607131442-11.85T-550M-security.tar.gz
Antminer-S9-201607131440-14T-650M-security.tar.gz

Same as what I have for the s9's sans the 550M one. All miners I bought were the faster batch releases Tongue

And of course I have a copy of the latest release but it's not getting ANYWHERE near any of my miners.

Plus they pulled all the older firmware from the site.

Which is why for all miners I've had I always made sure to download/save the different versions shortly after they are released. I usually do not apply the updates but at least I always have the software in storage just in case this happens...

I have most of them as well

Maybe we should pull from yours and other stashes and make a non-Bitmain source for folks who need 'em.

I just received my S9 and I got it up and mining. I noticed in that in the Firmware version that came with my S9, i don't have the option to adjust fan speed. This results in an annoying increase and decrease of fan speeds, kind of like a breeze with a slight whistle.

Is there anyway to downgrade the firmware so i can have access to customize fan speed percentage under the "Miner Configuration" page?

Hardware Version   4.8.1.3

BMminer Version   2.0.0

batches after 16 can't work on old firmware
that what they told me on there support

We should press them to allow us to manage fan speed
its more disturbing than the previous

im already working with their support and an engineer to get this sorted out. at the very least we need fan speed control....not to lower the speed because its already too damn low but to raise it on one os these "newly designed" s9's. one is missing 1.5th/s which im getting a refund for because its way outta listed spec and the other has a board temp os 101 degrees because the fan speed it only 2280/3600 rpm not to mention the firmware overclocks that board to the damn moon.

That is ff'ed up.
It is like running against nicehash.
It beats the s9 to death.
Need a nice smooth connection/hashrate.

Interesting... Anyone have a Batch-16 miner to tell us what version of BMminer it is using?

B16 & 17 is the latest bitmain batches which haven't same freq for boards so it need there BMminer Version 2.0.0

i still have unstable internet connection and it seem like the only miner suffer from that is my B17!

i think the reason is it take a small package to decode and resend all the time unlike the old batches need along time to feel the lost connection
its really a small period of time

it's for all S9 but i installed on my B17 only

There is a SN sticker on the miner. tell them on support this SN and they should tell you the patch if you ordered it from ebay or something

New firmware seems a bit scary.
Trying to auto detect frequency? Nah.
No fan control? Nah.

I agree. I liked the option of being able to underclock and lower the fan speed. This new firmware might force home miners to go with the quieter R4 option in the future.

One board on S9 (two month old) does not work anymore. It is still under warranty, but is it even worth it sending it to hong kong?
What is the cost to do that from US, approximately? Instructions are peculiar and I have no ability to photograph anything as the miner is in hosting. What did you guys use, UPS or FEDEX?

I would use UPS.

You 'can' open a ticket on bitmainwarranty.com. Just say "no warranty". Their techs may be able to fix. They are pretty good.
Had them fix one of my s9 boards, $175.

Thanks. Still deciding, but leaning toward bitmainwarranty.
In US, I can send priority mail.

Does your fixed board work OK now?

Yep, cost $13 ups to send there from east coast, they charge $25 ups for return.
I fully expect to have a dead board at some point for my museum. Can't hurt to try out Denver.
Comes tomorrow, they SAID their tech fixed it. I'll let you know tomorrow when I kick it in the unit that is only running two boards at the moment.

There really isn't a reason to skip sending boards to Denver, what we've seen, has always come back , and for under the estimate to ultimate card owner.

Agreed. Have been dealing with them since the S3 days. Always good.
