I tested the latest firmware and it's booted 20+ times in a row without failure, which is better than it ever did in the past, so it seems to have fixed the idle problem. I will keep an eye on the failures in kernelci.org and let you know if I notice any other failures. Thanks again for the updated firmware! Speaking of updated firmware, is there any chance to make the default version of the firmware significantly less noisy. There is a TON of output from the firmware before fastboot starts which makes the logs for this board very noisy (same complaint on the mt8135.)
