Help! My BBBL just arrived Monday and was in the middle of porting my quadcopter code to it. I was able to get 9DOF measurements from it and decided to take it to the library with me, so I put it back into the static bag it came with, placed it in the original box in between the ESD foam it came with and placed it into my backpack. When I took it out, I found that it was unresponsive. I thought maybe I somehow bricked it by not doing a shutdown -h before unplugging it, so I tried to follow online directions on booting from an external uSD card.
If I power the board from USB or an external 3S Lipo, all I see is the blue ON LED, the LIPO status LED stuck at 75, and the G and R LED's on (picture below). If I press the SD button with the uSD already plugged in and apply power, I don't see any blinking lights that tell me it's booting from the uSD card. <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Yc4XsOXH3Mo/WNyzdyE9ZfI/AAAAAAAAAUU/mO37vRZfgvs50Sxu9LFfIMP8Y4SxJQ0BACLcB/s1600/BBBL.JPG> I've tried the Debian 8.7 2017-03-19 <https://debian.beagleboard.org/images/bone-debian-8.7-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2017-03-19-4gb.img.xz> IoT and Debian 8.7 2017-03-19 <https://debian.beagleboard.org/images/bone-debian-8.7-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2017-03-19-4gb.img.xz> LXQT firmware, I tried a 8GB and a 32GB uSDHC card, I tried 2 different USB cables. When plugged into a USB port, I can't find the network access point to be able to login using 192.168.7.2, and also I can't ping the device over it's wireless network after I had configured the wifi using connman. I'm starting to think that the hardware was somehow damaged (but I felt I took appropriate ESD considerations, and transported it in its box). This is my first beagle bone product ever (but have used many Arduino's, RPI and Intel Edison). Is there some newbie mistake I'm making?
