I would not start celebrating just yet. Blackarrow said they would not do any refunds until after shipping all orders. Have they sent you the BTC? If so please post the tx.id

man, am i glad i jumped ship. got my new psu`s set up and s3`s should be on their way in about 1.5 weeks  Grin

good luck to those of you who are still hanging in there...

How did you jump ship? I guess you ordered from a reseller and they agreed to refund you?


I don't know how he did it, but the reseller I bought from agreed to ship me comparably priced hardware. More than doubled the hashrate i'd be getting with the X1

i just opened a ticket and asked for a refund, got a reply after a few hours asking for a btc address.

But what's at fault the minion or any one of the three other boards that make the miner. Looks like too many cooks spoil the broth as they say.

I hope it's not the chips for the sake of those who opted to go with the "Marto Miners"

Marto, did you have any issues with the chips when producing your boards?

So basically, they took forever to ship, and when they did ship (a couple of X-1's), the product does not work as intended, has a ton of hw errors, and is a total fail.  Basically they spent all this time to deliver a "superior" product, but ended up producing a lemon.  Does that about sum it up?
Yep, that's right. But the lemon won't explode!  Wink

No, but warms up and does not work. I changed the speed to 1000Mhz and HW error is now 28%. It is worse. I think taht we need update the software, but I don't know how it's done.

sounds like a bad minion chip

I don't think this is an isolated incident, I have read many times where the thing will not run for more than a few hours, what happened to all the testing BA was supposed to do to ensure that they run?  Guess the 5 days of free hosting was another lie.

Oh man I am so happy that I jumped off this ship.

Hello everybody.

Since yesterday in the afternoon, I have one X1 without rPI, but I have a lot of poblems.
The first, temperature all the time is 80 grade, but y need do undercloking to 800Mhz, because at 3 or 5 hour, the X1 stop mining.
The second, I can see this message all the time

Software update available: V1.4. Click on update to install.

I click in the Power ON icon, but nothing happens. When the X-1 is reboot, I can see the same  message.
I tried connect with SSH but the X-1 tell me Access denied

And the last, I had a lot od HW error, about 18% or more.

I read that KANO, do a nt CGMINER for MINION, but I can't update the software.

Could you help me, please?.

Thank you in advance.

Chips and systems out at end of Feb 2014 - that means tape out sometime in December 2013, which means you've only just, or have not yet started physical design. Without being well into the physical design stage how do you know what your power or performance numbers are going to be with any confidence?

We've started the design in June. The only difference between us and our competitors is that we do not give unrealistic time frames which we know we cannot meet.

We are confident that we will deliver sooner but we do not make promises that we might not be able to fulfill.




To put this in perspective, 13 months to build a lemon of a miner! Just about the same amount of time to build the Empire State Building.

But the Empire State Building was probably tested prior to being shipped out.

it was, I seen it - King Kong escaped and kidnapped some blonde chick

My one stays solid at 120 GH/s.

Not my case ... as you can see, and not talking about the huge quantity of errors from one of the miners, they also stop hashing and restart randomly :


Your freq. is set to 800 on three of the miners

Log in to each miner by going to

192.168.2.18/lcd (make sure there isn't https://)

login w/ user / blackarrow

Click on cgminer, scroll down and up your freq.
