Actually I've mostly been using Gboard since I got the phone back. Neither Gboard nor Swiftkey has control keys as far as I can see, though. Thankfully, apps like Termux add their own control key functionality, but that obviously doesn't help with normal text input in e-mail or web browsers. Which is why I've started to try Hacker's keyboard again, but that has other limitations I'm not sure I want to put up with after having used Swiftkey and the current version of Gboard...

Thank you @Hook! It is possible that I have two different issues going on it would seem, I have the phone now charging with the elastic band continually pressing against the power button, I cant say that I have ever tried anything like this before however it seems to have worked for others. I did notice that almost all the links on the forum were locked down in Google Drive previously.   I guess we will see if I can actually get the phone to charge/turn on first before I can do anything else.

Okay, the big problem here, I believe, is that the directions you followed were for the Pro 1, not the Pro1x-- so you flashed Android 9 for an 835 SOC to a device that ran Android 11 with a 662 SOC.  Unfortunately, I'm not technical enough to know if you can recover from that.  I hope someone else here has that knowledge and can help.  The instructions for flashing the Pro1x were here.  I say "were" because it now looks like you have to request access when you click on the google drive.  You can try that, but if you don't succeed DM me, I have the files.  But you need someone else to affirm that flashing them would undo the damage.  Given you can no longer access the Pro1x, I don't know if they can. The power problem: if you let the Pro1x run too low, it may not be able to charge because of a bug that lets it completely empty so it can't even boot the charging capability.  The solution for that is here, which may work even though it can't fully boot. Sorry, I can't answer your primary question of "Is it bricked." I just am not technically knowledgeable to answer that.  Things are slow here, but hopefully others will come by.

I did read a number of posts regarding a factory reset tool however all of the links in the post were 404's, hoping someone can provide me with some tools to try or steps to take, sorry to be a pain! I am currently using a Windows machine with adb and fastboot installed but because I can't seem to boot into the bootloader neither tool can see the phone as far as I can tell. C:\Windows\System32>fastboot devices C:\Windows\System32>fastboot devices C:\Windows\System32>adb devices List of devices attached C:\Windows\System32> I believe the battery was pretty full when it died though I have just noticed that when I charge the phone the red light doesn't light up when charging so I am wondering if I maybe have a hardware issue. It was working fine prior to the flashing though so it would be an awful coincidence.  

Hello, I was hoping someone might be able to give me some advice. I followed the process listed on this blog for flashing back to stock android... https://mikestechlife.blogspot.com/2021/01/installing-alternative-operating.html I booted into fastboot and ran the BAT file (after modifying it). It seemed to flash as expected, when I rebooted afterwards all I get is a blank screen, no android logo, nada. I tried to hold down the volume down key and the power button, I hear my computer detect the USB connection but again i dont see anything at all on the display. Holding the power button down for 30 seconds does nothing either. I am at a complete loss, is there anything I can do to boot back into recovery mode or get some life into the phone or is it completely bricked? Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
