As there is no firmware available yet from bitmain I ask it over here: If one that received an A3 already can make a copy of the filesystem (tar gz it and SCP) and can upload it to mega and share the link (PM me) I would be really thankful and give a 0.5 LTC or 0.1 DASH reward to the first one sharing this.
I can give it a shot, when I receive my unit from Fedex in Thursday (most likely). ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I hope to have the firmware earlier then that, but I will let it know in this topic. Thanks ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) How do you extract it? I have mine up and running. You need to have some linux knowledge: login with ssh as root/admin to your miner: This guide helps you to make a copy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TARlater you need to scp the tar / gz file to your windows pc. winscp can do that for example. Don't worry to mess something up on your miner as the filesystem is loaded in RAM. So a reboot and you're back to the original state... is it the exact command that back up all the parts you need? tar -cvpzf backup.tar.gz --exclude=/backup.tar.gz --one-file-system / feel free to contact me directly at https://t.me/brokevin

Forking the Network The Sia community is currently debating a soft-fork that would exclude all Bitmain A3 units from the Sia network, while leaving Obelisk SC1 units fully operational. We encourage you to contribute to this discussion, and ask that you disclose your status as an Obelisk customer when commenting. Discussion is taking place on Sia's Discord and Subreddit.
Now this is what I would call fucked up ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) They are to slow with their production and because of that they want to fuck over users and customers of SC because they bought a miner from someone else haha You cant make that shit up

How much watts is it pulling? Any chance we could just run the APW3++ run on US 110 V?
APW3++ only 1200 watts on 110v. Even if bitmain overstated the draw, which they usually do....you would be cutting it awfully close. Can someone post the power consumption details about A3 please? Really curious about a possibility to run Antminer A3 on 110V using APW3++....

At the beginning, the team said it was a weapon to use just in case the network was attacked. Now things are changing. I saw too many "for the good of the community" arguments that smell bad too. Soft fork has more consequences that what you see at face value, and all sorts of interests are in play... I bought 2 Obelisks by the way (1 DCR1 batch 1 and 1 SC1 batch 2). So far 0 A3s.

They are actually far more worse with their acts than Bitmain, if they go through with a soft fork that only allows using Obelisk hardware.
That would be a big ass centralization.

@ to Talhart
Hello, I set up a farm outside the United States of America, with a cost of electricity = 0.06 $ / kwh, and I propose a hosting service for the Antminer at 150 $ / month. if you are interested, send me a private message to discuss the modality of the service. Greetings.

Seems like they overclocked the shit out of these things. Just like the D3. What Frequency do they run at to get the 815mh??

SHIPPED! All three orders (mom, fiance and myself) at the same time.
Had ordered within 10 mins of the launch. BITMAIN said 10 days, and it's been under 10 days.
UPS to USA east coast. Anyone have any idea how long it typically takes once picked up by UPS?

Best, - Team Obelisk
Hopefully common sense prevails and they put this soft fork idea away. They are being very short sighted if they do it. What happens when HalongMining (assuming they can actually deliver miners) comes out with their 3.5Th SC miner? Fork again? They are sort of in a bad spot, and never should have entered the ASIC market. They found out that it is cut throat and someone else can and will eat your lunch. Bitmain saw this like taking candy from a baby. Expecting a DECRED miner out next,,, within the next couple of weeks. The SIA dev team should have focused their efforts on building out the platform and gaining legit real world adoption, ie. clients.

1/22/2018 - Monday 11:57 pm Arrived at FedEx location MEMPHIS, TN
Damn, I should have gone with FedEx then. I'm in Memphis, TN too, but mine are scheduled for Wed Delivery. I tried to use FedEx but it keep asking for an import number. What's this important number they ask for? I did a google search for , "bitmain asking for import number", no luck. Were they asking for my FedEx account number? If so, problem solved, but didn't want to guess at that or expect a response from them during the short A3 buying window so I went with FedEx. Especially considering Memphis is a Fedex Hub ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I believe you need to enter your SSN number for the Importer number. Not sure why this is required for Fedex but not UPS

Mine was picked up at noon on today the 28th (13 hours ago though since I'm talking Chinese time). I am in Iowa and estimated delivery day is Thursday.
