Ubuntu does not boot with VIM3L

VIM3

I used this Url to start Ubuntu with VIM3L. I installed it on EMMC. The first time it started, but the screen disappeared after restarting with apt-get update. Even after baking again, the screen did not appear after apt-get update and restarted. The lamp initially glows white, but flashes after a few tens of seconds. Please tell me how to deal with it. The OS of the PC is Ubuntu 18.04.

@sooman Do you use an external power supply ? Do you mean it can be used normally if you not run apt update ?

@Frank Yes. When I restart after I do an apt update, the screen goes blank.

@sooman I will test it and feedback .

Hello! try another firmware, if you can’t succeed, go to the Krescue tool, before doing this, do the eMMC cleaning also through Krescue

The screen is not reflected even with krescue. Also, if I look closely, the light is on after standing for about 3 seconds after pointing at USB-C. Maybe my VIM3L has a hardware problem. Thanks for the advice.

Have you tried to flash other firmware? Android ?

@numbqq It boots normally on Android, and the display is fine.

Can you try to edit /boot/env.txt, change hdmi_autodetect=yes to hdmi_autodetect=no, after upgrade?
