(11-13-2019, 02:20 PM)ThisGeekTweets Wrote: Just over a week into ownership my lovely new PineBook Pro seems to have given up the ghost! When powering on, I am presented with an awful coil whine from the machine and a blank display (with backlight turned on). I've attempted disconnecting the battery and resetting using the switch on the device but to no avail! The whine seems to stop when I disconnect the display though! Any suggestions? Really disappointed that an otherwise brilliant machine seems dead to the world now!
For reference, this is the sound...

I would try booting from a sdcard first, then maybe open the bottom and see if the emmc module is properly seated. Please report back Smile
