Black Screen after boot

  • for a few weeks now i seem to be getting an occasional black screen after booting my Slice3. It started after 9.2.3 and still seems to be happening on 9.2.4.

    ssh works just fine every single time, the kore remote just seems to just say 'connecting'. Once or twice its occured after booting, the kodi screen has frozen and the remote goes back to connecting.

    wondering if anyone can see any clues in the debug log files:

  • You seem to have overclock settings in config.txt, can you test if that happens with stock config.txt, too?

    Code
    mount -o remount,rw /flash
    cp /flash/config.txt /flash/config.txt.bak
    cp /usr/share/bootloader/config.txt /flash/config.txt

    so long,

    Hi, if the stock clock does not fix it, you could try reseating the compute module (remove it and reseat it) just in case it is a bad / oxidised connection. I have had issues many times with PCs hanging up and it turned out to be the graphics card needing reseating.

    Sorry if you have already tried that :)

  • This is now resolved, thanks everyone for your help.

    Despite using the stock config and reseating the CM the black screens continued.

    There were actually 2 types of black screens:-

    The first was caused by switching on the Slice and then powering up other devices and switching sources while the Slice was booting, this resulted in the TV displaying 'no signal'. This was resolved by creating an edid.dat file using tvservice -d.

    The second is still unexplained but was resolved by doing a soft reset using the Libreelec menu. Most of my settings are now restored and the Slice is still working with no issues.
