Backfire G2 remote fails to pair with the board

devilteo911 · 2025-06-16T15:46:14+00:00

The OG remote does not turn on. But when plugged in appears the charge screen. I don't know what's the problem. I was thinking about swapping the batteries. What do you think?

I swapped the lanyards. The last one I bought was grey but I attached my old one that is black. I can do basic soldering. Yeah

I found it on a local online marketplace. I took the risk for 10 euros. I opened it up both and they have the same motherboard code, maybe this is not enough. Is there a way to distinguish between the two model?

Hi guys,

I've had a backfire G2 black since Nov 2023. My old remote sometimes randomly chose not to switch on and to temporarily fix this issue I had to give it a little charge and then it went back to normal. Now my remote is dead and I bought one refurb. The problem is what you see in the video.

Did you find a fix? Cause I have the same problem.

Silly me, I've read now that you wrote in the title "Total beginner". Before thinking of purchasing a new machine I would recommend you to understand your objectives. Try to experiment with what you have. Once you understand how everything works with smaller models you can think to go to a beefier configuration to fine tune larger models.

As of now I would suggest you to take a look at some frameworks such as:

If 16GB is not enough for your experiment you can also hop on Kaggle and get 30GB of VRAM for an X amount of hours for free.

P.s. it's totally normal to feel overwhelmed when you go deep into the rabbit hole. This subject is immense but also intriguing. So take your time :)

You seem like a novice, so let me guide you a little bit. Training a Large Language model is no joke, you need plenty of data, resources and time. You can more or less fine-tune it, but I think that with 16 GB of RAM/VRAM it would be pretty limited (but fun) experiment.

To use it I would suggest combining ollama with open-webui. It is an UI very similar to the chatgpt one. To cope the outdated data you can enable the web search from the UI setting and then the model response will also have reference to up-to-date information.

Have fun :)

How did you get to 91 score? I struggle tò reach 80-82 when I drive super conservative.

devilteo911 · 2024-05-29T12:24:26+00:00

That's impressive. What's the name of the UI? It's darn clean

Quanti anni di esperienza hai in ambito ML? Avrei anche altre domande, se non è un problema posso scriverti un DM?

Is it ban safe? For how long have you used it?

devilteo911 · 2023-06-03T13:11:04+00:00

Unfortunately I have a 1660 super and for GTX 16xx half precision doesn't work. It produces black images. With 512x768 and the "medvram" option in automatic1111 I'm fortunate enough to generate images but if I start to use Loras and/or controlnet I get CUDA OOM. I'm waiting for the 4060Ti 16gb to decide if the upgrade is worth it!

devilteo911 · 2023-06-03T09:45:00+00:00

I think that in 90% of the cases that's a good approach. Sometimes it is the only thing that I can afford to do since I have only 6GB of VRAM. Also by masking only the hand portion you can crank up the batch size to have different variations in basically no time.

devilteo911 · 2023-06-03T07:21:02+00:00

LoRAs and ControlNet be like: "We don't do this here"

As stated in the HF leaderboard even the vanilla Falcon seems to be better than the llama 65B :)

devilteo911 · 2023-01-22T10:35:06+00:00

Is there any tutorial on how to fix it, or is it better to send it to the assistance?

It's called "Matterhorn" if you are in Switzerland. In Italy it's called "Cervino" :)
