Based on everything you have done so far, a few questions arise.
You mentioned that you

• Took a security backup
• Dumped BOOT1/BOOT2 + 1GB USERAREA
• Updated the EMMC FFU
• Wrote the dump back
• Erased the param partition
• Flashed via Odin

But here is the contradiction:

1. Odin flashing is only possible when the device enters proper Download Mode.(As you mentioned, the flash was done in Download Mode)​

   If the phone really entered Download Mode and the flash completed, the device should at least boot to logo or go into a bootloop, not become dead.

2. If the phone became dead immediately after the Odin flash, then​

   (A) The download mode was incomplete (fake/inconsistent bootloader), so Odin looked like it flashed but the boot files were already corrupted.
   (B) After the FFU update, the restored dump was mismatched or incomplete, which led to Boot1/Boot2 being corrupted.

In such cases, the phone usually:​

• Goes completely dead
• Or only shows as “Auto Port / BROM Mode”
• Or does not detect at all (PMIC lock condition)

The issue in your process is that after updating the FFU, you restored the dump again and then erased the param partition. If the phone really entered Download Mode, Odin flashing would not make the device dead. This means the download mode was incomplete or Boot1/Boot2 were not correctly restored, which caused the device to go completely dead after the flash.
Now confirm whether the phone shows Auto Port / BROM mode in UFI or no detection at all — the recovery steps depend on that.

As clearly shown in the image, the boot configuration is 0x00. You can fix it, and we are confident that your device will power on—provided no major changes have been made to it.

When the phone is connected using ufi box by isp pinout , the ufi box emmc tool detect it, but when I remove it from the isp pinout, it doesn't detect pc again. It only detect when the isp pinout is connected. Again, the phone doesn't boot to download mode since I updated ffu.

Since the phone was dead it didn't enter the download mode again to flash the stock firmware.

I need your help with the procedures and your guide.

I have marked it. The problem is from here. You can write the boot configuration using EXT-CSD or repair it manually.
