I find the PinePhone USB-C socket a little wobbly, and all cables tend to have loose connections if moved and especially the red cable that came with the PinePhone.
My standard practice is to put the phone flat on a surface, plug in the cable and try not to move anything thereafter. Hopefully phone boots if it was off, or starts charging otherwise.
Specifically with jumpdirve boot the phone first, then with it flat on some table with the USB-A already plugged into the PC, plug in the the USB-C to the phone and hope it appears as /dev/sda (eMMC) and /dev/sdb (the jumpdriver SDcard) or whatever your distro does.
