I also had a dead PPP this morning.
Just got it on last Thursday and started using it a bit this weekend, just to stream some music, but was completely dead this morning. It started with bootloops for breakfast. I could see that it was reaching a certain point in the boot, then dying. I have the USB charge station with display and it was helpful to see that the phone wasn't taking a charge except for the first few seconds while it tried to boot, but wasn't enough for it to charge the battery, then died. Repeat. It did this until the battery was too low to even power on the phone.
I resolved it by putting the battery into my original PinePhone and got it to charge on there. That allowed me to get up to about 15% charge, then was able to get the PPP to boot past where it was failing before and started charging normally.
