I think it's borked. I connected it to serial on my Windows PC and just get gibberish. And not scrolling jibberish as before when it was in the bootloop. Just a block here or there (which I think is just line noise when I wiggle the connector). Thought it was Windows screwing with my USB Serial drivers (which it did in fact, but I fixed) so I moved to my Linux machine and using minicom and Putty, same.

Argh...technology is great when it works.

... 5-minutes later ...

I pressed power and the front panel button at the same time and after about 15 seconds, it woke up.

Now back to the bootloop on serial. I'll get it back into EDL mode on the Windows machine and try to load recovery and misc.
