Topic: SSH Unlock for antminer s9 firmware, anyone interested? (Read 1743 times)
Hello,
I was recently contacted by someone asking for a solution to unlock their miners after upgrading to the latest firmware.
I was able to find a solution to open SSH and remove the signature check thing which was added by bitmain.
I want to know if anyone would be interested in a tool to do that. I am not sure if I should ask for money for this because it took me
30 mins to do it, but I might open an account for donations if you find it useful.
If I get at least 3 people which need this, I will write the tool so it's easy to use and also keeps permanent changes.
If there's more people which need this kind of solution, add what kind of features it should have, if you want to downgrade or just
enable ssh at boot time.

Im interested, send me your contact.
I can automate the configuration of machines. Using web portal is time consuming and tedious if you have many machines.
... What is there that you can do with SSH that you can't do through the web portal?
Freedom. You only remember it when you want to do something outside of the norm, but then its too late, because you foolishly committed to them. I can simply counter your argument, there is nothing the Bitmain firmware can do that Braiins OS can't do much better, AND you keep full control of your device...
Just because they made the chips doesn't mean they are the best to use them. There are countless examples in history, but i would mention: Atari, Activision and the Stella graphics chip (hint: The rainbow). We could go over all 40 years of personal computing history, and this history only repeats itself.
You would have never gotten that "multi-option" menu without bOS.

Need to downgrade to March first. Instructions added: https://asicseer.com/page/security-restoring-ssh
It seems to me like the multi-option menu provided by the May 2019 firmware is more useful than anything that SSH would provide? (Assuming that upgrading back to May would lock SSH again)

FYI
The asicseer "SSH Restore" does not work with newest firmware for s9. It runs, says it was successful, but port 22 is still closed.

Did you try to restart the miner? Maybe you need to restart it first.
If it's not working maybe the latest firmware got patched recently.
Your last option if you want to enable the SSH you need to downgrade the miner through SD card.

I did, and they told me that it probably got patched. The other guy with the red "exploited" stuff tells me his still works.
Did you talk to their devs on telegram, I haven't seen anyone say it hasn't worked but I think most people who ran it were on March.

So far their firmware has been working without an issue, I haven't tried their ssh recovery tool because I currently don't have that need.
Good news
Well it was bound to happen. I hope it doesn't do any nasties, as this is some binary blob without source code...

I don't mind paying you an average programmer month worth of salary for you to release the "code/script" , so if it's money that you want, let me know how much is it, but if you are just wasting your time and trying to get some newbies to send you money for something you don't have, or/and attempting to give them an executable file or steal their hashrate then this may be the wrong place for all of that.
There is a tested procedure to enable back the SSH access by downgrading the t9+ firmware to below 2018 firmware but you can downgrade it through web GUI but you can flash it through SD card by follow this method "T9+ Control Board Program Recovery".
After you flash it with SD card now flash it again with lower version through web GUI (make sure not to flash it with 2019 firmware).
Now you have gain access again with SSH.

hi, i'm really interessed by this ! i locked my miner with latest firmware T9+ (but is good for lambda perssonne) ... 10,5Ths for only 930w ... is not bad 
but i need SSH for hack this and unlock more power :p
but i need SSH for hack this and unlock more power :p I thought someone already discovers to enabled SSH but looks like he's planning to sell this fake SSH unlock tool.
If you can provide an opensource code of the tool we can verify it if the tool has stuffing or backdoors.
Why not we can donate any amount if your tools are actually clean and working.
There are many miners out there that are eagerly waiting for a solution to enable SSH.

There is indeed real interest and people willing to pay for this. Since they made the mistake of remotely upgrading their S9s remotely and now found (the hard way) they can no longer SSH to them. And, well, not everyone can go physically do the SD card or serial port method...
If you are an Antminer owner, DO NOT upgrade to any firmware from 2019 or you will lose SSH access.
Logically to avoid scams, trojans or backdoors releasing the source code of the tool is the honest thing to do.
There is no need to doubt the person, code talks.

That is the same guy who was trying to sell firmware and trying to sell a script that just ssh'd and replaced bmminer if memory is correct. Compiling bmminer is not the hard part making a flashable firmware version that doesn't shit the bed is more a bitch than anything else.
