PinePhone Pro not detected by my PC

Before I respond I have a very simple question to ask, to boot my phone from SPI flash do I need to have the sim card in the phone?

No, SPI flash is baked onto the board. In order to flash the SPI though, bootloaders like Tow-boot will want to be flashed to the SPI from an sd card.

I did not think so.

Whats more, I loaded Tow Boot onto the SD Card again and put it back in and that does work. I even reinstalled it. I still cannot boot from SD and I cannot boot from the eMMC. I will post one picture, the phone is dead right now. The message that comes up is different when I attempt to boot from SD or the eMMC.
