Troubleshooting • Re: Problems booting Raspberry Pi Zero 2W

Hello! Is it possible that I broke the Raspberry pi zero 2w while soldering? Namely, when soldering, I didn't pay attention that the solder also touched the "run" contact. When starting up, the zero 2w does not power up and only flashes the LED on the screen, a color screen appears for a short time and then restarts.
Thank you for your answers and help.
Kind regards
We don't know. My usual answer is connect a serial console cable. For a Pi Zero W , best to disable bluetooth so the best/better UART gets allocated to serial console. Needs editing config.txt and you also might want to add loglevel=7 on cmdline.txt, as it might be the kernel where the reset is initiated. See docs what can/needs to be done for showing serial console output.
Editing config.txt also means your SD-card is a bit 'challenged'; maybe the problem is there.
