X96 MAX Plus 4gb + 32 gb will not boot off sd card stuck on boot screen, any ideas?

For the record, I have similar problems with a recent X96 Max Plus 4G/32G/1000M. My box, though is a Q2, with a firmware 20201209-1446, look here for my report: Boot issue with X96 Max Plus Q2 4G/32G/1000M (stock firmware 20201209-1446)
