Raspberry Pi 4 not posting

iamnotmega_

so basically i dropped my pi one time and it stopped posting. when i reviewed the board it appeared that a small piece of the cpu had literally broken off. can someone PLEASE help me? i really need to get it back working

iamnotmega_

here is a picture

iamnotmega_

ok i just realised that one corner in fact is supposed to be like that since it looks like that on the product picture

justaccsolol

is there any lights?

iamnotmega_

yea

iamnotmega_

and i can sense the cpu is completely fine

iamnotmega_

because when i run it for a while i can actually sense with my finger that the cpu is hotter

iamnotmega_

still doesnt post tho

justaccsolol

eh

justaccsolol

micro sd?

iamnotmega_

i have it

iamnotmega_

raspbian already installed

justaccsolol

weird,

iamnotmega_

i can show u a video of bootup

thunder07337

What exactly do you mean by "post"?

iamnotmega_

like

iamnotmega_

it turns on

iamnotmega_

but i dont get any hdmi output

iamnotmega_

nor does ssh work

thunder07337

Have you reinstalled the OS? And where should something be broken? The photo is so blurred, you can't see anything...

iamnotmega_

ive tried rewriting a lot of times

iamnotmega_

still no work

iamnotmega_

and no i cant even see a thing

iamnotmega_

just black screen

iamnotmega_

on both my monitor and tv

iamnotmega_

it just says no signal

iamnotmega_

well i only saw the green led blink like for a millisecond

iamnotmega_

and then it never blinked again

iamnotmega_

it would stay on red

thunder07337

Have you tried a different SD card?

iamnotmega_

i only have one

iamnotmega_

ill just reinstall raspbian for now

thunder07337

Writing too often destroys SD cards...

iamnotmega_

i mean

iamnotmega_

it doesnt work

iamnotmega_

everything else is fine

iamnotmega_

but for some reason my pi still wont boot

thunder07337

Start the Pi without the SD card. It should then display something on the monitor.

iamnotmega_

uhh

iamnotmega_

ok

iamnotmega_

whatever u say

iamnotmega_

i tried both ports

iamnotmega_

neither worked

thunder07337

Then it's probably broken 🤷‍♂️

iamnotmega_

i mean

iamnotmega_

i dropped it once on accident

iamnotmega_

that shouldnt mean that its completely beyond repair right

iamnotmega_

there has to be a way to make it work again

thunder07337

I don't know, I'm not an electrician...

iamnotmega_

eh

iamnotmega_

lets face it

iamnotmega_

my pi is screwed up

iamnotmega_

all because i accidentally dropped it\

justaccsolol

hm

justaccsolol

yeah

iamnotmega_

now i gotta pay like 80 euros for a new one 😭

iamnotmega_

i really want to own one of those

iamnotmega_

wait

iamnotmega_

but maybe if its broken i can get a pi 5 maybe

iamnotmega_

eh

iamnotmega_

ill still try

thunder07337

Electrical appliances are sensitive... Especially if they don't have a cover!

iamnotmega_

i had a case on

iamnotmega_

i mean

iamnotmega_

if i cant do hdmi thats fine

iamnotmega_

i can just use ssh

iamnotmega_

nvm

iamnotmega_

even ssh doesnt

iamnotmega_

...

iamnotmega_

MY PI IS BROKEN 😭😭

iamnotmega_

*desk slam

iamnotmega_

it was fun..while it lasted.

iamnotmega_

now its just sitting and collecting dust
