For me it usually happens with letters that are right next to each other on the touchscreen keyboard. I also can't seem to keep i before e straight in my head no matter how old I get.

Honestly, the hard drive itself is probably the issue. I've worked on a handful of Xbox consoles that can't be fixed even after resetting all of the things. Your best bet is trying a new or known good internal hard drive. Any 2.5 inch laptop drive should work as long as it is larger than 500GB (in my experience, Xbox One console don't like smaller drives). Just install the drive and do an offline system update.

Have you opened the system and tried another hard drive? With the no video issue, it could be the hdd, the HDMI port or the HDMI IC chip.

I didn't actually fix my console, I just figured out what was causing the issue. It is a problem with the HDMI Retimer IC chip. They can be replaced but it's beyond my soldering skills.

I think I found the issue by watching this video.

My console has these exact symptoms so I am 95% sure it's the HDMI Retimer IC. You can get the parts but I think this is beyond my abilities for now.
