you are genius, thanks
i upgraded it through my samsung note 5, it looked like it froze forever, but after 5 min, i accessed it through my laptop and changed all setting

it takes about 3 minutes for the firmware to be applied. Always give it some time..
Glad that worked for you

I had this issue as well. The problem is that you are trying to send the file over as is through a PC.
The machine connot recognize what your trying to send to it.

My solution was flashing it with my tablet.
If you have a tablet give that a try. If not try using your cell phone.
I dont know what it is about that but its worked for me everytime.

Hope this helps, bud.

Edit:
As in download the .tar from bitmain through your mobile device and send it over from there. My hunch is that through PC the file is usually decompressed through winrar and what not. On a mobile device it is left as intended and is then readable by the asic.

i am refurbishing some old ones, for some reasons, when i try to do an upgrade , the tar files on the bitmain give me error, i tried all files listed, all error message.

anyone has a good .img image file, i can flash the SD card with an external SD adapter.

thanks
