Hello,
I think I have broken the PinePhone I got for my 17th birthday. But I don't know, I'm not good at systems stuff, I'm just a simple programmer.
What I did:
I wanted to boot from an SD-card, but it didn't let me boot; it just booted from the internal storage. So I did something I now extremely regret: I tried to make the OS that I installed on the internal storage un-bootable by writing from /dev/random to the /dev/*Whatever the eMMC was*. At least, it doesn't boot the Manjaro ARM with KDE Mobile (which I didn't like), which the Desktop of has just... gone away... some time ago ?!
But the problem is: It doesn't boot anything anymore.
What happens:
Nothing. Nothing at all. The LED on the outside doesn't light up, it doesn't boot, it does as much as a clay brick that I could buy in a building supplies store.
Please help.
