no sdcard boot and manjaro update failed

I received my pinephone few days ago and tried to update it (from UI, not ssh). ... It failed ...
Now I get the same big 'K' at start and nothing happens.
I'm not able to boot from sdcard. I tried two differents sdcards with manjaro image and jumpstart but pinephone doesn't boot anything else than the emmc.
I tried long press action on start button or other things seen on youtube or documentation but can't go further ...
I've understood there could be problems with full discharging battery also but I don't know if it's the case ... I don't think so but I'm not sure ...

Could some give some help please ?

You're likely experiencing two issues at the same time here:

* The pre-installed OS got corrupted or the battery is drained
* The microSD card isn't flashed or inserted correctly

Jumpdrive will boot even with a drained battery, so it's likely that the microSD card isn't flashed or inserted correctly. Please write the exact (!) command and filename you used to flash the microSD card and if you inserted the microSD card in the top or the bottom slot (top slot is correct).
