Nexus 6P'ing me off. Late to the bootloop revival party

So I know its been asked a thousands times by now, and i'm sorry. I just sucked it up as a lost and got a different one after seeing no fix in sight.

I cant remember if my developer options were enable, if not, am i screwed?

Also its been a long time since i even looked at the phone, and when i plug it in i just get a red notification light. I've looked at xda forums and i see that there is a fix but how possible fix, but how educated do you have to be on what i'm just going to call "techy stuff" to bring the phone back to life using that method.and is there anyone using a revived device in 2017
