RB5 showing no heartbeat

  • u

    Hello, my I-Pi RB5 was working fine until recently, but now it is showing some strange behavior. When I try to power it on, there are no logs on the serial console (PuTTY), and nothing appears on the HDMI display either. I also tried entering EDL mode, but no ports are detected on the host PC (QFIL). The blue LED just below the SoC keeps blinking normally. Earlier, it was running NON-HLOS Ubuntu.

    What could be the possible reasons for the board not showing any signs of life, and what troubleshooting steps would you recommend?

    Could you 1st check if your power supply is OK

    2nd can you see if there is a sequence in the blue led blinking ( this is the BMC)

    Lastly, you need to push the button while powering on the enter EDL, did you try that?
