BPI-R2 won't boot

I did connect gnd (the picture was just a snapshot before connecting gnd), I tried it both ways, no success at all.

Got no response from the device, with three different terminal-programs (one running on windows, just to be sure).

I think my device is bricked and I’ll send it back to reichelt.

Have you looked at your sd-card with pc? Are there min 2 partitions (boot+rootfs)?

Yes, the FreeBSD Image I used had two partitions.

Have you tried another sd-card vendor (ie transcend,sandisk) or sizes? maybe its not compatible. I know that for raspi… else you can get image from sd (calc bs and count from imagesize) and compare checksum (md5,sha) to verify it is written exactly.

I checked the MD5-Sum after the first several tries to boot the BPI, and it matched with the data I got on the Card. I tried a second card which is in use on my Raspberry and it didn’t work either, so I took another card from a different Raspberry and it didn’t work too… All cards seem to be fine when used with my PC…

The method I used to write to/from an img file worked fine with the images I used to have on the both Raspberries.

Try to long press on PWR button over 10 seconds and see if there’s something out on the debug uart.

No, there isn’t any output except this “break”-statement no matter how long I press the pwr button - which I did even longer than 10 seconds without any response or anything from the device.

do you use 12v power?

Yes, 12v and 3a, I tried a different one with 2amp, same result :(.

I sent the device back today, thanks alot guys for your time and your help!

After many tries I’m still not able to boot the Ubuntu (latest image Ubuntu-16.04-mate-desktop-bpi-r2-sd-emmc-v1.2.0.img). Booting always hangs on:

[BLDR] jump to 0x81E00000
[BLDR] <0x81E00000>=0x5BF6144E
[BLDR] <0x81E00004>=0x6B99EE8A

Only pink color is on the attached monitor. I tried to boot with monitor unplugged too. Same result. Tried different SD cards too. Same result. Tried older Ubuntu image too. Same result.

Note: Thanks to @garywang help I already boot to LEDE from SD card and form EMMC as well. But still no luck with Ubuntu.

I do appreciate any help. Thx.

The whole bootlog follows:

Problem solved. It was my mistake. I was burning the Ubuntu Mate image using dd command to /dev/sdd1 partition instead of /dev/sdd device. As soon as I burned image to sdd device, it has booted from SD card correctly.

BTW: I think formatting SD card before burning the image to it as described here https://bananapi.gitbooks.io/banana-pi-bpi-r2-open-source-smart-router/content/bpi-r2-quick-start.html is not necessary. Image burning overwrites previously formatted partition on SD card.
