I also managed to brick my pinebook pro. Blank display no LED
After much futzing around I got tow-boot installed to the SPI.
I used the usb adapter to dd fresh copy of Manjaro-ARM-kde-plasma-generic-23.02.img.xz to the emc card.
I boot from the emc the LED goes green and I can see image load then the screen flashes a green blocky display with a grey bar at the top for a second or so then nothing it goes blank.
I rewrote a backup copy of the working SD card image to a sd card same thing green display then blank.
I used dd to write a copy of Manjaro-ARM-kde-plasma-generic-23.02.img.xz to a usb drive same result.
So what step did I miss?
Short update armbian 23.02 appears to boot from usb.
