New Pinebook Pro, only boots 50% of the time
#1
Hi all, new to the forum here

Just got my PBP delivered. I am aware of the issue with the June 2020 shipment, some batches had eMMC switch off. I checked and mine was fine. For some reason, 50% of the time my PBP won't boot. The light would turn orange, then yellow, but then nothing happens and the screen is black. I could hold the power button to kill the power, then try to restart again and again until it boots. So far the boot success rate is about 50%

Did I get a defective hardware unit, or is there a DIY hardware problem that I can try?

Thanks!
