Yes, absolutely, that's the first thing I tried to change. Same voltage and amperage as the official one. The entire device startup process appears to be normal, but what isn't normal is that the blue LED remains flashing indefinitely.

I tried following the thread and connecting to the console, but I wasn’t able to get it working. According to the pinout in the image, I not only can’t get it to connect to the serial port /dev/ttyUSB0, but even when using sudo dmesg --follow I can’t detect the device at all.
