I haven't had any such problem on the other distros, so it clearly seems software-related.
This problem occurred on the latest 5/6 stable version downloaded from here: https://ci.ubports.com/job/rootfs/job/ro...stemimage/
Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround?
Thanks!
@okgo Have you tried a 2 or 3 second press of the power button? I recall experiencing the screen flash like that some time back, and holding the power button for a few seconds worked for me. I'm currently running my PinePhone with UBPorts on the KernelUpgrade channel, and I'm not seeing that quick flash and back to black.

I tried various power-on methods... and since it flickered the screen and then went black again, it makes me think that something was attempted and then failed - rather than that I wasn't hitting the button right. But I'm all ears for solutions!
