| Does not boot / white screen / black screen | Check [Won't boot](Won't-boot) and [Config Menu](Config-Menu). |
| Crash / Guru Meditation. | Try [Full reset](Completely-reset). If still does not work, try [Updating the Xilinx CPLD on hackrf board](Updating-the-Xilinx-CPLD-on-hackrf-board). If nothing works, [report an issue on GitHub](https://github.com/portapack-mayhem/mayhem-firmware/issues/new/choose). |
| No splash screen / No time & date / Touchscreen does not work / Status bar icon disappeared / Backlight timeout abnormal / Encoder dial abnormal | Check [settings](https://github.com/portapack-mayhem/mayhem-firmware/wiki/Settings). |

For reducing the noise, try using the internal battery. For DC offset, there's nothing you can do, however it’s normal on SDR. |
| My computer can't see my HackRF | Try at least 5 different cables. If you are on Windows, try to install drivers in release package. Also try your luck with [Zadig](https://zadig.akeo.ie/). If not working, try on a Linux machine (exclude Ubuntu) |
| My sound board app can't see the files i putted in, but my fileman app can | folow [Soundboard](https://github.com/portapack-mayhem/mayhem-firmware/wiki/Soundboard) to make correct file |
