Question Phone stuck in fastboot loop

[nemmieve]

Hello! So awhile ago, I decided to try to root my new phone, ensuring model and etc was correct (CPH2459, this should be the usa unlocked variant right?) annddddd... it did not turn out so well. I had a friend recommend I reset- (which I mean I don't see what that would do but I have bootloader already unlocked so..) which just led me to being stuck on the setup screen where i cant get past wifi without my phone restarting- without fail to that as well. Also like touchscreen didnt work half the time and physical keys (Power, Volume) didn't seem to respond when the device was on either (excluding for a hard restart).

I followed this guide step by step (in no way blaming those individuals) https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...guide-from-fastboot-obtain-root-more.4495801/ and my phone is now stuck in a fastboot loop.
I do wish to clarify that I am sure I followed step by step, I didn't make a backup though as the initial guide didn't present how to do so.

I'm honestly afraid to do anything more to my phone, and I really do need this to work as it just happens my other phone broke recently. Would appreciate any help so, very much, I have no idea what I'm doing and I haven't the slightest clue as to what may be wrong.
I do understand this question has been asked a bit with this phone and there are other threads, but I couldn't find my answer. So I'm hoping for some direct help.

I'm guessing you noticed that the link they posted for the downloaded ota is the gn22000 model correct? yours is CPH (as i saw you stated) so i was just double-checking to make sure you didn't download the wrong variant's ota..
