If the light is turning red then:

  • Something is shutting it down
  • There’s a problem with the power supply
  • The device is overheating

You could also try booting the device without an HDMI cable attached.
What peripherals are attached to the device?

Overheating should not be the reason. Same happens if i try after one day. Without hdmi same issue. I need to try another power supply. Does it need to be the exact same or the amperage can be different. O dont think i have 2A laying around.

Amperage can be different, but voltage must be 5V.

Nope. Still same issue. Can device just be dead or is there something else i can check?

Oh and no other peripherals are attached.

Are you seeing the installer come up on the display?
If so – then the device doesn’t seem like it is dead.

No, when i try reinstalling the bblue light stays on for a longer time and no output from hdmi. no signal message on TV and after a while light turns red and if i recycle power then im at the same starting point again.

I would recommend trying on another display to see if you get a picture.

Just did that also. Same thing…also tried raspberry pi3 on primary tv and install screen came up normally.

If you put a toothpick in the recovery port, does the recovery screen come up?

Tried that. The blue light stays on now, but screen still saying no signal.

What model of TV are you testing with?

When’s the last time you used the device without issue?

Sam

Its a philips android smart tv. Other hdmi devices have no problem at all. Last time using it without issues was the day before i writed here.

Unfortunately it’s hard to tell what could be wrong with the device without taking a look at it. Particularly if you are not getting any visual indicator.

You can send it back to us to have a look at it, but we cannot guarantee that we could resolve the issue for you after this time
