Pinebook Pro not Booting at All eMMC or MicroSD
#18
I reseated the WiFi with no change. What do you think would cause a Pinebook Pro to not register any Wifi or Ethernet connections. This isn't the latest batch. It's from the December Debian group.

It showed WiFi previously, but after I did apt-get update & upgrade, and Mr. Fixit2001's update script, I no longer had any connection whatsoever.

Also, I'd love to boot to another device, but no microSD boots have engaged thus far. I've tried like 8 different images with eMMC enabled or disabled, and it never loaded microSD at startup.

So, Ethernet came back one time. I managed to get USB support installed, a couple of simple utilities, and I flashed the SPI with the pcm720 NVMe U-boot binary file. However, I tried to boot to the microSD or NVMe afterwards and still no luck. The device only wants to load the eMMC content period for some reason.
