hey guys! I was trying to use latest Raspbian Stretch Lite from Raspbian official website on my OPi Zero, but I had same symptoms -- no LED indication nothing at TTL-UART interface. I tried different SD cards but didn't get lucky. Finally I tried to use Raspbian image from Orange Pi web-site -- it was released on 2018-02-05 but HOLY SHIT! it's worked! :-) Hope it helps!
Hi, I have the same problem. Could you send the link to downlad the image you used ? By the way, if no correct image is stored, the behaviour is the same as sowed in this video ?
I had the same problem. No red light and not booting. So I had given little heat with smd repair blower on ic's , let it cool for 10 secs and powered on again. Yes it booted with red light. Hope this is helpful.
I just received the orangepi PC and I power supply with 5V 2A and didn't have any activity, does not turn on any led and not any red led work. I have checked the motherboard, all voltages with the voltimetro and are correct, 3V3, 1V2, etc.. but when I press the push switch SW4 does not start. Any Idea.
Well, armbian seems to be perfect for ARMHF cpu arch... Also, and really really check this: Power supply! I've connected the USB power cable to my pc to ensure enough ampères can come through .. and i hadn't any crashes since. I'ive ordered the power supply specially for the Orange Pi. nl.aliexpress.com/store/product/orange-pi-orange-pi-plus-Power-Adapter-5V-2A-Power-Supply-Micro-USB-Charger/1553371_32248555041.html Before that, i used my old phone charger, wich wasn't strong enough which caused the crashes (after applying heatstink and fan)
I dont know why it happens, but I've had the same thing for a month. I've been looking for information, I've tried different power supplies, and only one time the lights turned on. It may be due to the instability of the power supply. Try another source, and if anyone knows why it happens, post it, please. I hope u fix it
I' ve changed power supply from 2A to 3A like someone suggest me. STILL NOT WORKING. It was obvious but i wanted to test it. It has nothing to do with external "gadgets" because the other OPI is working with them.
1. Use heat sink & fan www.banggood.com/Copper-Aluminium-Heatsink-Fan-Cooling-Kit-For-Raspberry-Pi-B-Raspberry-Pi-2-p-1045412.html 2. Use Etcher & Armbian etcher.io/ www.armbian.com/ 3. Learn serial trick: www.instructables.com/id/Setup-Orange-Pi-Using-Serial-Port/?ALLSTEPS
1. The working OP don't using heat sink or fan. I have it open 24 h per day. 2. The SD Card with the OS is working to the other one. 3. What?? If I have to buy an extra device i'' ll buy a new OP :P
Look man, as they say "shit happens", you know in life you must learn how to troubleshoot & fix things. So, try everything do not give up, also read/ask in Armbian forum: forum.armbian.com/ Try Diet Pi dietpi.com/ with a new uSD. Also push that button onboard. Reset bios...etc.
There was the same problem. I pulled out the microsd card, pressed the microsd slot a little with my fingers. It's working!

Phoenix Card software will fix it! use Phoenix Card to install image on to sd card!
Which version of pheonix? I went on the Pheonix website and it asks for phone models?
