I bought two GrowCubes. I created a 2.4G network specifically for then with the setting enabled for devices to see each other. One of the GrowCubes works fine and is now integrated to my HomeAssistant setup. The other worked once and integrated but after unplugging it and plugging it back in would not connect. I tried resetting the Wi-Fi (pressed unlock button for three seconds, then attempted to do setup via the app), and then when that failed I tried a full factory reset (factory reset button held down for three seconds). In both cases the GrowCube works fine in direct connection mode, and reports a firmware of 4.1, so I can't update it to see if that fixes things. Is there anything I can do it was I showed a defective unit?
In order for us to better help you solve the problem, please provide more detailed information, including the purpose of such configuration/networking and the operation process, etc. It would be best if you can record a video for us to see in detail.
Power shuts off automatically after about 30 seconds during boot up.
It is missing the SDA0 (BCM_GPIO-0) signal from the Raspberry Pi.
Put the system microSD card into a PC and use a text editor to verify the config.txt file under the /boot partition on the microSD card contains the following statement toward the end of the file.
gpio=0=op,dl
Note: Make sure there is no typos gpio=0 <-- This is a zero
If that statement does not exist, add it to the end of the file and save it.
How to update the Crowpi2 OS image?
You need to take out the SD card and use a computer for image burning, and it can be roughly divided into 3 steps:
1. Download the image file

2. Format the SD card
Using SDFormatter software to format the SD card.
You can download this software from the download link at the bottom of this comment.
3. Install the image
Using Win32DiskImager software to install the iamge, which is very easy to operate.
You can download it from the download link at the bottom of this comment, too.
After you have burned the image, inserting the memory card into the Raspberry Pi of CrowPi2, and then turn it on.
