RG353M won't boot #607

Closed dmzkrsk closed 1 year ago

dmzkrsk commented 1 year ago

Hello. I downloaded the latest ArkOS image, but my RG353M unit doesn't start at all. Just black screen

I used different SD cards
Used both Apple Pi and balena for flashing
Default SD boots
JELOS boots fine (from the first attempt)

I found some related threads for other devices:

Also tried dd under Linux. I was able to mount ext4 partition, so I think the flashing was fine. Any way to enable some kind of debug log of boot process?

Partition table looks like

/dev/sdc1     16384    24575     8192    4M unknown
/dev/sdc2     24576    32767     8192    4M unknown
/dev/sdc3     32768   237567   204800  100M unknown
/dev/sdc4    237568 14983167 14745600    7G Microsoft basic data
/dev/sdc5  14983168 15521791   538624  263M Microsoft basic data

I was not able to mount three first partition though

Do you get a logo screen at all? Does it at least do the initial setup?

dmzkrsk commented 1 year ago

somehow, pressing power button for some long/short time I was able to boot into logo, but it hang
I restarted the device and it continued to boot normally
the next day device died (?) no led, doesn't react to power button, so I send it back

Perhaps, faulty device

Did you make sure to fully charge the device first?
