I see. I will attempt to run SD card Ubuntu and let you know what I find. It may be a bit before I can get to it, I am short on SD cards and will need to find a place to dump the data on a card I have.
You use mainline kernel? For mainline kernel you have to erase the eMMC to fully boot from SD card.
You can’t use vendor u-boot to boot mainline kernel or you will get a green screen.
Same issue here with VIM3, booting the firmware VIM3_Ubuntu-xfce-bionic_Linux-5.5-rc2_arm64_SD-USB_V0.8.2-20200103 from sd card using “keys mode” and I get the xfce desktop environment with a greenish color.
I have said in the release note that, DON’T use vendor u-boot to bootup mainline kernel anymore or you will get a green screen. You need to erase the eMMC and fully boot from SD card.

@AKBAAR If you android in EMMC is import for you and you want to try the lastest release ubuntu . I think maybe you can use krescue to backup you android in EMMc . Then earse it and try ubuntu .
oh yes thats great idea, Krescue to the rescue … thank you for the reminder, i totally forgot that Krescue can backup your system and restore anytime and to any device once more … duh dummy me
totally would be greatest thing coming from this amazing little utility …
