      SD: tested on 256Gb Samsung and 8 GB Trascend.

      When power on, show this message and then restart in an infinite loop

        @ulysess said in Infinite restart on RPi 4 4GB:

        8 GB Trascend.

        remplace your microsd, use sandisk class 10
        and verify your charger.

          @acris official charger. Are you saying the microSD quality is the issue about continuously reboot?. First time I hear that in 8 years with a Pi. Tested 2 of them (Samsung Evo) with the same result.

              Hi @ulysess ,

              Could you post the content of the file /boot/config.txt and give us the type of screen your is connected to? (i.e is it 4k capable, maybe the brand and ref)

              David

                    @ulysess you can make a test on your 1080p screen and comment the following line in /boot/config.txt

                    # allow 4k 60hz - Comment if fou have a black screen
                    #hdmi_enable_4kp60=1

                      weird. That's the stage:

                      • It works: Burn with Balena, eject (not modifying config.txt) and plug/connect the Pi on a Samsung TV 4K. Now I wait 5-10 min. to prepare partitions, power off and connect again the Pi on the TV 24" (resolution is 1080p by default). Everything is fine.
                      • It doesn't work: Burn with Balena, eject (not modifying config.txt) and connect on a Samsung 24" (model UE24H4003AW) and I get infinite loop.

                      I let this comment for future reference or maybe can help someone.

                        @ulysess I don't understand you made same things and in 1 case it works, in another one it does not work ?

                          @ian57 The difference is that in the first one, I plug the Pi on a Samsung TV 4K, wait until I see the UI, and then connect the Pi to the TV 24"

                            @ulysess I think the next 7.0.1 will fix that. Stay tuned.

                              Hi @ulysess

                              Do you mind making additional tests in PM?

                              David.
