preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Screen issue help!
« on: June 17, 2016, 12:09:28 AM »
Well, I have built the latest metal case kit (R5 board) and closed jumper 1 & 2. When I plug in the USB power source, or a 9v source I get no response from the unit. When I hold a button and add power via USB connection the device powers up and the LEDs blink and I get access to the drive on my computer. Pressing button 1 I can turn off and on the access to the storage device.
The issue I have is when I apply USB power sometimes I get mixed unknown characters on the display or nothing at all. When the characters are displayed they do not resemble anything I can read. I am not sure if it is a solder issue or firmware issue but I have been attempting to reburn the PreenFM2 firmware but it came loaded on the USB stick with the kit.
Is it a firmware issue or did I miss a solder point?
I did the best I could to scour other posts in case anyone had the same issue but mine seems a bit different from the other fixes recommended.
Thanks in advance!
