eMMC won't flash - RodMyers - 09-12-2020
Received my PinePhone earlier this week.
I flashed mobian onto the eMMC last night. This morning, the phone had a solid green light, and would not boot. The LED stays green and would not boot.
Found the test*.img, and ran it.
Everything passes, except the "Flash to eMMC".
not sure what to do at this point. Any other ideas?

How did you flash eMMC? I use, and would recommend, Jumpdrive.

My bad.
Yes, jumpdrive and dd onto the eMMC.
Funny thing. I removed the battery, fired up the windows laptop, used etcher to finally re-flash the phone.
No idea what was going on this day, but everything now works

I have read similar reports every so often. Seems to be a slightly bad flash which is fixed with a reflash.
I wouldn't worry about it unless it continues to happen. If it happens again, redownload your image (could be a dl error, did you verify the checksum?) and see. If it happens after all that, it's likely an emmc issue.
