Pinebook Pro totally dead
#4
So, I plugged it in overnight as suggested, and it turns out that both of you were partially right.

When I tried turning it on this morning after what had seemed to be a decent charge (the charging light was still blinking), it still refused to turn on. So I gave in to frustration, disconnected the battery, hooked up the bypass cables, and plugged it in to the DC power supply. Everything turned on immediately and just fine. All of this leads me to believe that there might be something up with charging via USB-C, as that was what I had it hooked up to last night. The cable is good, the power supply is good, the PBP seems to *think* it's being charged, but if so, what was it doing for 10 hours last night that led to it not having any power today?

In any case, I have a partial solution now. Until I can figure out if there's something wrong with the USB-C port or charging via it, the normal DC charging will have to do. Thanks to both of you!
