Busted Pine64 does not turn on any more
#1
Got mine a couple of hours ago (2GB). Burned a Ubuntu image and booted it up. Rebooted a couple of times. And now it doesn't turn on anymore. The red LED stays off. Looks dead.

I tried a few other USB power supplies (I have quite a few and I bought them for my Pis, none of those crappy ones that you get with your phone) and nothing. The board seems to be busted. I removed everything (no keyboard or mouse or Ethernet or HDMI cable, no SD card) and it didn't make any difference.

Sigh.. knowing them, 1- it will take them forever to replace the board and 2- they will charge me another $7 to send a replacement

Waiting for : it must be your fault doing something you're not supposed to do. your power supply was -bad-, cables have not been thick enough. Stop whining, there is always problem with a new piece of hardware, etc. etc. etc.

is the right email support@pine64.com?
