Hey guys. After nearly a year of tracking down hardware issues, new Teensy 3.6, new smartshield, and panels I’ve finally got Aurora running. Thank you for the ‘‘resetmatrix’’ file. Now, how should the SD card be set up? Does it need to be FAT32 or something else? Also what should be on the card? Should it be all files from the zip, or just the aurora and gif folder? One more question 
would it be possible to replace the IR/remote with just a push button, and what do I need to implement this? Thanks again to Louis, Marc, and all those who helped me with this.
Ok, scratch that. Aurora was still running the Demo screen when I got home. Unplugged Teensy, hooked up IR reciever, powered back up and it kicks off USB. ‘‘This device has malfunctioned’’. Disconnected the IR, ran the blink sketch…all is good. Now in IDE 1.6.5 ( thats what worked for me) I get compile errors. FML! Wont compile in 1.8.8 either. Guess I got lucky that it ran once. Just want to pull my hair out. This is now close to $600 of components, but I want to run Aurora so badly its killin me. Please help a brother out 
At least it still runs the Smartmatrix demo.

Seems like the major error is coming from the JumpToAppWithOffset.c file, can you try to disable this? If I remember correctly, this is for jumping to the bootloader, which isn’t required to run the app programmed through Arduino.
Thanks, Louis. Do I just comment that out? Trying to make this as a Christmas gift this year, as I was have trouble with it last time. Oh,well…here we go again! At least I know its not a hardware problem this time.
Got it working!!! Thanks for all the help. One little error at line 261 got me. Hooking up audio next, so I might be back
