    AMIKO Is there still a demand for Amiko A3 Receivers?

    I'm getting ready to sell my slightly used Amiko A3 Red Jenny Special Receiver on Ebay; unless there is a marketplace here that works with PayPal?? The A3 Red Jenny is in its original box with all the cables and cords; even still has the brand new remote still in the box that needs charged. The...

    Ok, I will just leave everything alone then as it is. I'm very sorry I got a little excited and posted anything. I probably need to take a very long break from this negative forum anyway and just keep to myself from now on; no more Satellite Guys for me. Perhaps that will make it a little easier...

    Ok, gotcha! That would make sense then, I'm with you so far. :-) I was told to make a backup when I got the A3, which I didn't, but I can't go back in time and redo that now. So if the NA ROM backup was installed and shipped with the A3, do I do a Wipe & Reset from the Recovery to get back to...

    Oh cool!! This came up today for my A3. I already made a backup of everything, hopefully this will get me to a stable working ROM made for the US. :-) At least I hope this is for the US, doesn't exactly say of course.

    That would be Michael (ke4est), and I already tossed out the box not too long ago thinking I didn't need it any longer. I'm not sure Michael wants this A3 back anytime soon, it's already been in someone else's hands before it was returned to him under buyers remourse. :-)

    (Sigh......), ok. Either that I guess I could always buy a new one from you that has all of the latest newest stuff with it. :-) No wonder why this thing has been so wacky at times, it's homesick for France I would guess.

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    But my A3 only does this when there is no Flash Drive or HD in place after I downloaded the updated ROM a little while ago: Maybe it has a ROM from Europe in it?? No wonder why it's been acting so strangely at times.

    My STB ID is 11 00 0a 00 00 04 b0 I'm not sure if that will identify that the A3 I have was meant for Europe. The Uboot version I have is 2011.03

    The name of the backup file is today's date followed by 17-36-38. whatever that means.

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    I did not make a backup of anything shortly after getting the A3. When I received the A3 out of the box and setting it up, the reciever immediately wanted to download and install a current system update that came out on 10/16/2014 version 2.0.60. I don't remember what the previous update was...

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    It's possible the previous owner of my A3 may have changed or deleted some things that he shouldn't or maybe the ROM in my A3 is so old I can't update it, or maybe the factory left something out. All I know is, the directions on that NA website and ROM I downloaded won't work and it won't...

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    That's the website I have been using all this time. The screen shots show a C: Drive with no mention of how that was created or got there and another folder called downloads. When I follow those directions as they are laid out, I press the green button for local updates and nothing appears at...

    I did follow the NA A3 ROM update PDF to the letter, which left alot of important steps out.

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    That's what the directions or guides tell me to do on the A3 website, which are actually pretty pitiful at best. It says that if I want to update the ROM to a stable one, not the A3 software or firmware, then I have to create a new folder using a USB Flash Drive which then requires me to copy...

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    Brian, I spent the past few hours or more figuring out how to create a new HD on the A3 using a USB Flash Drive. I created a backup and finally found the stable ROM you were talking about. I downloaded the ROM 4 or 5 different ways, copied it to the Flash Drive, and the best it can do is give me...

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    Brian, the Amiko shows 19V on Horizontal and 14V on Vertical. I verified in settings that I have it set for 13/18, so it is 1 volt more than it should be, which might be why it's acting so erratic. The Manhattan shows 18V on Horizontal and 14V Vertical, which is one volt more than needed on that...

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    I haven't gone into further testing to see what would happen if I took the Amiko away from it's mother yet. I haven't thought of testing the voltage with both boxes but I could see what that looks like. :-) I got pretty busy with other things and was enjoying the Amiko working properly again. I...

    If I don't hear back, I will download the latest Development ROM soon.

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    Brian, sorry I got confused with Development ROM'S and firmware releases, I guess they are one of the same actually. Would it be ok if I downloaded ROM40D-2.0.61 instead? That came out on Oct 21st.

    AMIKO The Amiko A3 Acting Crazy Any Ideas Why?

    Oh, ok. So I go to the Development ROM App and download the 2.0.59?
