DOA Pine64

Yes that is exactly what happens if you display does not support 1080p60hz. The best thing to do is to use a usb to ttl adapter and monitor it through the console during boot.

Your pine is very likely fine. 80% of the ones that have been returned as DOA were not DOA.

Thanks, just ordered a usb to ttl. Will try it. But one of my displays is a brand new 1080p60hz HD TV so it should be able to handle the pine
I'll let you know how it goes.

There is a new build coming(cant recall if Android or ReMix), I believe tllim said maybe Saturday that should support 720p so may help with the compatibility issues. All we can do is wait and see. I am in the same boat, I have tested 7 devices and only 1 works without an adapted. 3 others work with HDMI to VGA adapter but only by cropping the screen.

Well it is official. TTL did not output anything. Now I am ready to send my board back and ask for a new one. Very sad
