Somebody in the thread at some point said:
| After a recent reboot, the system never came back. Pushing the power
button
| causes nothing to happen. I don't even seem to get into uboot(no logo
screen). I
| don't have a debug board. I do not have a sim card. I've been running
Debian off
| of the SD card mostly with success. I reflashed Uboot a few weeks ago,
but have
| rebooted many times since then without incident.
|
| most recent changes (prior to last reboot):
| 1) I added the onboard fs to my fstab in my SD debian install so that
I could
| access it while booted into debian.
| 2)I changed from the debian X.org server over to the Xfbdev server
copied from
| the onboard fs. It worked fine when I did a startx. And I know it was
running
| the Xfbdev server because I was able to screen rotates with xrandr.
|
| Things I've tried:
| 1) I tried pulling the battery, to clear state. Then restarting.
| 2) Letting it sit plugged in to make sure the battery had good charge. I
| measured 4.1 volts across the battery terminals(out of the phone).
| 3) I removed the SD card. and repeated the above steps.
|
|
| Any suggestions as to what to try next?

See if this helps: pull the battery, wait a few seconds, then hold down
AUX key and keep it down, reapply battery, hold power button in too, let
go of AUX then let go of power button.
