Do you have a serial cable that you could see what information is given when the phone attempts to boot? Also, you could make sure that the jump drive will boot in your other pinephone.
Likely you are having a different issue if the jump drive installation will not boot in your other pinephone. Maybe one of the other pins is bent in the card reader as you mentioned in the other thread. Here is what my functional card slot looks like:
