I receive my uConsole, CM4, G4 module and have been having trouble getting it ti boot.
At one point I was able to use HDMI and it worked but send me another screen and motherboard, nothing. The screen didn’t even light up. After the 3rd motherboard the screen lights but I don’t get any feedback and HDMI does not work. I’ve tried new SD cards with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Have you been using the same CM4 every time? You sure you have it plugged into the adapter board the correct way? Can you post a picture of the inside of your assembled uConsole?
I have been using the same CM4 every time. I requested a new one,
Also on a minor note, the on/off button does not turn of the Uconsole, without taking the batteries out.
If you replaced the mainboard, screen, and used different sd cards. Then the only thing would be the CM4 or assembled wrong. The fact you’ve put it together multiple times now and it looks good in the photo makes me think the CM4.
I assume this is the image you’re using.

Here is my custom image in case they changed something in the newer CM4s that would cause the older 5.10 kernel to not work. It probably wont work either but it wont hurt to try.
stupid question: did you press cm4 to the end in the carrier board? it should click
I pulled the CM4 and found a couple of bent pins. I carefully bent them back and now it works.
Thanks for your help.
