I just received my replacement Pinephonepro system board.
I had a tow-boot bootable SD ready to begin the process but the phone now loads a Rockchip splash and then boots into Chinese Android.
It also doesn't auto-boot when plugged into power, it just charges as it is an android.
How can I force this to bootfrom SD?
I wonder if this requires ADB commands?
I also wonder if the board requires ADB unlocking now as it is loaded with android...
I do not dread/write/speak Chinese so I have no idea how to get into dev mode.
A side problem is the main camera socket keeps popping off from the new board, I tried adding a paper shim to push it down via pressure form the plastic enclosure when screwed down. I wonder if it is broke and I need to spend $30 replacing the camera.
it also seems that the proximity detector is not fully pushed into its place as I can see the notification LED, this probably just needs to be opened and pushed down or remove the shim from the main camera.

this is for rockchip not sure if it will do anything useful for me, I want to be careful that I dont do more damage.
This just seems to be a windoze SD card writer app which can flip the bootable bit
per the dev boards stuff here https://wiki.radxa.com/Rock/dual_boot
I can flash over the /recovery partition, if I could get that much access from my phone
