Hey guys,

I think the solder is good but I've attached pictures of my work.

After I reattached everything when we went to turn it on we originally saw a red light, that then turned blue. The screen remained black. We held the power button and the light turned off. We now cannot get the light to come on at all. Somewhat worried the board could be shorted or bricked, any suggestions on how to move forward?

When the board is put together we put the jig in, held the +volume for 3 seconds then tapped the power button. Let me know if there is anything to look for. It seems from other peoples success that it can be quite finicky.

Appreciate any help

EDIT: SD card is completely empty except for Boot.dat file. This is my first time using SX OS but I've hacked lots of switches in the past with atmosphere.

Did you try ?

your ground on the photos is upper the shield. The solder joints seems to be ok

Exactly your ground is on the upper of the shield. The big gray ground, right next to where it says "V1". That needs to be put lower of the shielding frame.
Clean that thermal paste and put right amount.
