After a quick search I discovered the recovery mode by hitting the power and volume up at the same time. This also does nothing. I get no indicators, no change in the display. No lights or leds. Nothing. Battery in or out, on a charger, nothing changes. It will not boot.
I had the same problem flashed a sd with mobian stable and plugged into my windows PC held re and power for 50 sec counted it out it will make the sound something was plugged in unknown device keep going the second time said mobian ready and it was booted into mobian from SD card  think there is a issue booting into SD if your emmc is corrupted you have to force it

SO,  I just Re-read your original post Kaiser,

You said you were attempting to boot the 'mega iso'  with your 'pro'  phone.

I believe that is only available for the original Pine phone series,  the Pro requires it's own operating system branch.
