PinePhone Beta Edition will not boot from MicroSD card
#5
Quote:Sometimes when my PinePhone gets stuck and I force a poweroff it seems that the hardware will get stuck in a non-self recovering state (red led lit for more than 1 minute). When this happens I remove the battery, and in succession hold the power button, volume down, volume up, volume down, and finally power for 8 seconds each. I then reinstall the battery and the PinePhone boots properly.

Thanks for the suggestion. Just gave this a try and still only get the red light. I can boot from the emmc, but can't boot from any of the SD cards I have tried. The SD cards do work in another pinephone just not this one, so I don't thing they are the problem.

It definitely seems to be something wrong with the phone.
