In the meantime, work around is don't disable bluetooth.
     Yes, I discovered the problem after I had a black screen after the progress screen.
     Way back in early August, I took the advice of the manual and turned off my Bluetooth.  When I restarted through the menu, the black screen appeared and it seemed that the internal microSD card had been trashed.  I patiently waited for another A600GS image to be sent, and I re-imaged the microSD card successfully.  Then I went to the settings to turn off the Bluetooth and restarted ... big mistake... the microSD card was trashed again.  I re-imaged again.  I turned off the Bluetooth, restarted, card trashed... I finally figured out that turning off the Bluetooth was the culprit!  I re-imaged, and I haven't touched the default Bluetooth setting of being on.  No more start-up problems with the microSD card!

          That Bluetooth change was a booby trap,
