I have fiddled around a bit more with the Android 7.1 build. The problem definitely seems to be with the software itself. I have been able to get the LCD to come up a number of times now, but only after pulling and plugging in the HDMI. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to why this works sometimes and doesn't other times.
Another curious thing is that when the HDMI is plugged in prior to powering on the system takes about a minute and a half to come up. When the HDMI is left unplugged and the system is booted I can leave the unit powered for five minutes before plugging in the HDMI. When I plug in the HDMI it takes a moment and then the bootup logo displays. It's like Android isn't even booting up unless the HDMI is connected.
