As I have no battery, I must work with the USB-C cable always connected.  I remember the 3 colored bars but they only appear when I have no SD card loaded with an image (already tested postmarketos and ubuntu touch, both boot).  Could be possible that you put the card in the wrong slot?  you have the SD on top of the SIM (or the other, way, I don't remember), and the SD must enter completely to work.  Once I didn't load the card well and ...  colored bars.

When you have ubuntu touch, you see the traditional four penguins and all booting messages to be read by ants.  When using postmarketos, you have their logo.

I am not so sophisticated with the images.  What I do is to download them, expand them and just copy them to the /dev unit in a linux virtual machine with control of USB ports.  This always work for whatever SBC I use.

My image came from ( I choose the last one )

https://ci.ubports.com/job/rootfs/job/ro...ne/changes

it seems they must be the same.

Take into consideration that not all power supplies neither all cables work with this phone.  I really don't know if this is a limitation or a bug (even Raspberry people made a mistake with their RP4, why not an early pinephone device?).


A note about these OS

No WIFI, No Sound, No Calls ... at least with the provided software.  ... sometimes the Ubuntu freeze or the applications become black.  PMOS has just some programs for you to see that it boots, although not very useful.  But it seems they are assembling what is necessary, work in progress.
Hm. The SD card is in the right position and is obviously recognised because there is not RGB bar if it is inserted.
Maybe the battery is not yet well charged and then many smartphones have problems booting up.
I'll check battery status and cable next.
