ALL-H3-CC - 2GB board DOA
Just rec'd my board today, and it is no good. Imaged the H5 image (http://share.loverpi.com/board/libre-computer-project/libre-computer-board-all-h3-cc/image/ubuntu/Armbian_5.45_Tritium-h5_Ubuntu_xenial_next_4.14.44_desktop.zip - no MD5 or SHA1 so I could not confirm other than downloading it several times) onto included SD card.
No response from board - powered through known good 2A USB charger, known good HDMI connection (disconnected Rpi3 and connected Libre board). No response from board - SD activity light stays steady red, both LED's on NIC light up (no network connected). Behavior is the same with the SD card installed or not - SD card works in Pi3. eMMC not connected, but no difference in response when it is connected.
Confirmation number: b486aae76a89a14aac52b7021c33bbee
I backed this back in December - please advise!

OK, so more work here. Re-flashed the SD card using Rufus instead of Etcher, and now it is booting up - woohoo!
All boards were tested before getting mailed so it is very unlikely to be defective. 99% of the complaints are image issues. We are going to address that soon and provide more guidance on this aspect.
I have a H3, and I have the same issue, with the eMMC plugged in all I get is a test screen. I tried windisk imager, should I try a different SD card imager? Also which linux distro would you advise?
Also tried to use Phoenix to flash android to the eMMC and that doesnt work, what am I doing wrong?

Sorted it now, I was using the H3 distribution and not the h5. Although I cannot log on it needs a password
