Hello,

I think setting up a new image on both boards would be the first thing to 
do. Try w/ SD Card first, erase the eMMC, and update && upgrade, git pull 
in /opt/scripts/tools/ and then sudo ./update_kernel.sh would be the 
command to update the board to the newest kernel.

Then, one would need to update and/or add the correct overlay in 
/boot/uEnv.txt.
