Nov 4, 2020 at 23:20 comment added Milliways This is a Duplicate. Edit your original Question and include the missing details. NOTE the Red PWR LED on the later model Pi DOES NOT indicate good power - it ONLY works with code in the kernel (although no one knows what the Canonical kernel does). Buy a proper Power Supply. CHARGERS are NOT Power Supplies.
Nov 4, 2020 at 21:25 comment added user115418 Two things - verify the downloaded file checksum is correct and get a proper power supply. Chargers can output fluctuating voltage (as small dropouts) as current draw increases and a decent supply would have saved me three weeks of issues. Current capability is as vital as stable voltage. RPT does not sell supplies for fun but to give decent service :-)
Nov 4, 2020 at 16:34 comment added PMF @JohnBradshaw: Check that its output is also 15W(atts) or 3A(mperes). All USB power supplys have 5V(olts) as output, but the maximum power is relevant.
Nov 4, 2020 at 16:15 comment added John Bradshaw It is a uk 230v motorola phone adapter with a usb port. It says its output is 5v.
Nov 4, 2020 at 16:08 comment added Swedgin What adapter are you using? Sounds like it doesn't get enough juice.
Nov 4, 2020 at 16:03 comment added John Bradshaw it turns red and just stays red
Nov 4, 2020 at 15:59 comment added PMF What do you see on the LED-States when the Pi is switched on? The green led should start blinking wildly after a few seconds.
