I would hate to think that this is bricked already.

My pinetab2 didn't start. The screen was always black. I charged it one night.
I created an sdcard with latest image (https://pine64.org/documentation/PineTab...tructions/). I inserted it in the micro sdcard port, pressed the power button and the screen turned on. I reinstalled the whole system. It erases all data but now it works again.
