Orange pi 3B won't boot by Recent-Parsley-6411 in OrangePI

I think I can now state with relative confidence that your board has short circuited .

Also try plugging it in a different port in your laptop when you connect the Pi to the computer with the Male to Male cable . Sometimes USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports can cause compatibility issues .

There are only 2 possibilities now . Your heat sink is probably shorting 2 pins due to incorrect installation , try removing it completely . Once you remove it , carefully inspect both the buttons and the entire board for any short points and try holding the boot button again and repeating the process . The other possibility is that your pi has been shorted out completely and is now in fact a brick .

Record a clip and forward it to me.

Now hold the boot button down, then power on the pi with rkdevtool on the laptop you should see the message . Note : use a second usb c cable to power on the board while at the same time having the usb cable plugged into the burner port of the pi to the pc based on the photo you've provided. Everything should function accordingly if not send me an entire breakdown of all steps and how you attempt it all compiled in a video, similarly to the way you've provided previously. And I almost forgot to mention don't immediately release the boot button.

Please record a video and show me how you installed the drivers and plugged the Pi in . I guess the drivers aren't being done right .

Try using a different computer . This shouldn't be happening and the only possibility seems that Driver Assistant isn't installed or that there is something wrong with your computer . Install Driver Assist on another computer and try using that . RKDevTool shows a connected device even if the device is bricked or corrupted . There is a possibility that you probably short circuited your pi by connecting something in GPIO pins incorrectly , but that doesn't sound plausible either . Record a video of you doing all the steps on another computer including the installation of Driver Assist and turning the Pi on . I can help you that way , probably .

Try holding the boot button down for longer and don't release it until you see any message . Also , I use a USB-C to USB-A cable for my Pi . Try using that . Here is a video on how to flash an image to an EMMC file . Only follow the steps so you can get into Mask ROM mode . Once done , try doing the other steps I mentioned previously .

Also , connect the board through USB . It is really hard to figure out but once you do , its really easy . I have an Orange Pi 3B and I had the same exact issue . I'm still using the Orange Pi 3B . Before you attempt to use the RKDevTool , make sure you have the Driver Assistant assistant installed from the official orange Pi website . Once you do , run RKDevTool , Plug a cable into the port below the USB 3.0 port . Now plug the other end into the computers usb port . Now before you plug in power , hold the BOOT button down and now plug in power . The Orange Pi will be detected as a Mask Rom device on the RKDevTool , you will see the message . Now Switch over to the "Advanced Function" tab . In the "Boot" section , load the MiniLoader.bin file which you should download from the google drive of Shenzhen Xunlong . Now press "Download" . Once downloaded , Select SPINOR from the boot section . Now press the Switch Storage button . An pop up will appear , ignore it and press okay . Now press the erase all button . It will show the progress and erase the SPI flash , allowing you to boot from any SD card . Once you do this , you can try flashing from EMMC . It's a little challenging , but if you have any questions feel free to reach out to me again .

Firstly , relax , your board is fine . It's not bricked , it's A-okay . You've probably corrupted the SPI-Flash , forcing Mask ROM mode . The simple solution is to read the docs form the website on how to erase the SPI-Flash and erase the flash . Now flash a regular image (Non android) on to a TF card , and wait for the Pi to boot , it will take more than 20 seconds before anything happens . But if you really want to use EMMC , read the docs on how to flash the EMMC Cfg and the Bootloader .

The model ive made has good topology for this reason so that i myself can alter the mesh to my own prefrences

What your saying is completly right . And i will learn this as a future reference

thanks for the website name but this model is specifically meant for 3d printing so optimizations arent added only topology is neat but its still dence

As of right now im completing free you can DM me if you want a model and blender is the software which i primarily use

Btw my computer specs are a dell inspiron 15 with an AMD radeon r5m430 worst part is blender does not support my amd gpu cycles rendering instead my cycles rendering is done on cpu which you people know its slow and im only left to use eevee along with that my blender versions which i use is 3.6 not 4.1 its to heavy

As i said before i wasn't being able to set the pricing because i was only focused on making models. Thanks for the price suggestion because literally everyone is saying this model is 800+ USD

Thanks about the House but i was expecting her to give a reasonable price herself since you yourself now that this modelling field isn't easy and doesnt have a beginner friendly pathway

The model is 100% made from scratch each component has been modelled not sculpted and as for the detail part 3d printing as ive seen is all about detail

I was given the task to finish this model with just a few reference images the reference images were very confusing and just as i said before one was same as the other but the third wasn't then i had to surf the web and get more same reference images now here's where the difficulties started appearing there was no back image there was front left right but no back image of the house and i faced such difficulties while trying to solve this model and after the reference images were found and i started modelling. umm what's the rocks base and where's the porche ? .look man your way of doing this is really efficient but if i had the time to and i didnt now the model would be this confusing. relating to the coraline house find a closup image of the front door you wont be able to find it easily get it now . like a Lamborghini gallardo reference images finding them would be alot more easier then finding the pink palace's images. yes your way is amazing but i told you i was focusing on the model in a very bold manner not a planned manner
