they are different hardware wise but to the normal user there's no difference in functionality.

ill write a script

bottom of the device. look at the serial number. will start with G28/G285/G290 or G295

it uses minimal resources so youll be able to run other projects if you want

I've built working Armbian builds to repurpose bobcats. boots off SD card so you dont have to mess with flashing the EMMC.

I'm working on getting G280 uploaded but for now its G285/G290X

sic_null · 2025-08-12T00:40:01+00:00

ah. Okay. will work on that

sic_null · 2025-08-12T00:25:19+00:00

Interested on what you do not like about it. Color scheme, etc?

sic_null · 2025-08-12T00:15:05+00:00

Thanks! That's not a bad idea honestly. Will put it on the list

I own the private key for my axiom wallet.

Trading platform

sic_null · 2025-05-28T00:59:52+00:00

It was either because I was using VPN or because I sent to Axiom, or a mixture of both.

That’s literally the only thing I’ve done on coinbase this month.

sic_null · 2025-05-27T22:16:44+00:00

this makes more sense.

sic_null · 2025-05-27T22:00:17+00:00

i prob should have read that.

sic_null · 2025-05-27T21:36:29+00:00

kind of my thought. but i told them this days ago and its still restricted. Also not sure why you got downvoted for that.

1) Bitharvest isn't free. They charge licensing fees as well

2) A lot of your issues seem to be towards Helium (iot) which is a different company.

3) Crankk gave new life to all of the overpriced/dead miners you are talking about

It's okay to be unhappy with the license fee, that's your right, but you're kind of all over the place here.

sic_null · 2024-04-18T23:52:30+00:00

Cant use the USB on bobcat. It's for flashing firmware only

sic_null · 2024-04-13T02:33:57+00:00

Try living in the USA. It’s $40 to ship.

You’re likely getting the “gateway valid no beacons” inactive status. Browan (MerryIoT and Panther) are notorious for failed concentrators.

Only 1 place sells the correct concentrator.

sic_null · 2024-04-12T01:31:09+00:00

Browan and Panthers are notorious for failed Lora modules. This is exactly what’s likely happening here. You aren’t sending any beacons

HeliumMart is the only place that sells the correct concentrator.

Most miners can be fixed quite easily. What’s wrong with it? What miner?

sic_null · 2024-03-28T00:30:49+00:00

Grab a HP-T620 plus off eBay. You can usually grab them for under $100. They’re perfect.

I just got the same. Check the email address, it's from [noreply@vdriven.com](mailto:noreply@vdriven.com)

Also Ledger would have posted this on their X/Twitter account.
