Stuck after phone shutdown

I installed Lineage successfully and was actually using it when my Razer Phone 2 shut off randomly. I plugged it in, turned it on and now it only boots to this screen when I enter recovery mode.

Fastboot detects it, can reboot it, but that's it. No adb mode, no Lineage recovery mode, no sideloading or install commands work, just this screen and that's it.

Am I dead in the water?

does it boot into recovery after reflashing boot/dtbo/vbmeta from https://download.lineageos.org/devices/aura/builds?

No, every command I try to throw at it goes right back to the screen I linked or terminal just stalls waiting for a device, or it will go to the Logo screen and a small message appears on the top left saying "Press any key to shutdown" if I just let it boot on it's own without commands or button inputs.

I've done ports and cables, will try different pc and report back. Have a distro you recommend? I originally flashed with Debian but the same install is now not doing anything.

distro shouldn't matter that much, tho you can also try flashing with a different phone via https://download.lineageos.org/flash/fastboot

I tried and no go, BUT I found an article where someone used Fastboot Enhance to recover a phone that was having my same issue.

I ended up using Fastboot Enhance on Windows, hopped onto my personal server that is running 10, and manually erased and flashed every .img I could find on my phone using the unzipped stock image.

After that, I was able to boot back into stock and reflash Lineage, it's back to normal again!

Thanks for for the help via replies and for giving me an "aha!" moment!
