PinePhone replacement board won't stop vibrating
#1
As the title suggests, I got the new replacement boards that were on sale for ubports/braveheart users. I installed it, and now it vibrates when it turns on and continues to vibrate indefinitely. As it happens, I can actually boot mobian just fine off of the sd card. It just vibrates, regardless of what it is or isn't booting.

To confirm whether this was an installation mistake or not, I pulled out and put the board back in several times, making sure I got all the connectors. As far as I'm aware, the proximity sensor is installed correctly, as there is no red light. I went back and re-installed the old board just to be sure, and it works fine (although the touch screen wasn't working, but that might be because of some other factors; I dunno). 

To some, I suppose that could be a feature, but it's just kind of strange. I do have a tendency to be a little to ginger with my electronics, so, maybe, I pushed one of the pins in while sticking the board in the chassis? Maybe something's short. I've screwed in the frame but that didn't make a difference.
