Not booting after screen replacement(not a screen or software issue)
This issue appeared after I reassembled the phone after replacing the screen. The screen was tested before installation and the phone had no issues turning on then. The battery is not discharged(tested with multimeter) and is at 4V.
I'm not even sure which part could've been disturbed to cause this, the motherboard was removed before I pried the old screen off and put the new one on. The USB port somehow reacts to the connection and even if I disconnect it the booting issue remains, so it most likely isn't the culprit? During the booting attempt(not really a bootloop) something (processor?) under the EMI shield is heating up, so I can assume that it's trying to do something.
I had set this project aside for 5 months, but I really do want to figure out what is wrong and fix it, even if it is only for the experience. No local repair shops offer support for the ROG series and a new motherboard costs more than a new phone and no schematics for the Asus Rog Phone 3 are available online, so I can only try to increase my own knowledge and dig deeper.
Attempts at turning on can be seen here:
Es esta una buena pregunta?

@Sat Moviserv Hello! Unfortunatelly, I was unsuccessful at finding the solution on my own, but I did find a service that did an in-depth diagnostic. My issue in the end was a microfracture in the motherboard that caused a memory chip to malfunction(the type of memory that couldn't be swapped out), though it did take the service about a month of investigation to get to that point(thankfully wasn't charged for that)
The lesson I learned was that when doing hardware repairs you might not be careful enough, even when you think that you're extra careful.
Your issue might be completely different and actually fixable(without completely replacing the motherboard), but I hope this gives some kind of insight.
