I had problems with booting from the SD from start "of out of the" box.
I succeeded once with Postmarket OS. Made no changes to EMMC. Only booting from SD.
After I tried to SD boot  with UBPorts an older version II can't boot at all.
No Jumpdrive , no factory image works from the SD.
Tried different SD cards. Power should be ok.
After the Pine Logo the screen is dark no read activity from the LED.

Woops....

Now what?

Thought I'd chime in..... Same here.  It booted, out if the box, but did act erratic when just doing initial setup....choosing language, time, etc.  It took a couple re,-boots and re-tries to get all the way through setup.  It was still erratic.. lagging, hanging, etc. 

I tried the camera, and nothing.  It hung.   rebooted and tried again, and it hung.  I powered down to check the security tip switches to see if the camera was off.  The switch was in the 'on' position, so I put the cover back on and powered up.  Tried the camera again, and it hung again, with no image.   Finally did another reboot, and it never came back.  On power-up, I get the pine64 logo, then darkbscreen with backlight on.  

That was all over a week ago.  I have been too busy with work and side projects to play with it.... Only now, got time to post the issue.

With so many having similar issues, I will wait until I see something that works.

Thanks,

Dennis
