PineTab 2 Dead Screen

[jmmhorne]

I received my PineTab 2 a few days ago and tried to boot it up. Nothing on the screen and no sound but I did see the backlight on the keyboard come on a few seconds after turning on power. Tried booting from freshly burned SD card with the same results.

Finally connected the PineTab to my laptop using the debug adapter it came with and was able to see that it actually had booted up. I could log in through a terminal app and poke around the file system. But the screen stayed dark and there was no sound.

I've submitted a ticket on the problem but it's been three days and no response.

Has anyone else had similar problems? Were you able to resolve them?

Thanks.
