RIP my STB. It's hard bricked now due to eMMC changes as standard partition. I am not planning to buy again, because their ecosystem is really limited. I am looking for a vintage computer instead under $70.
@jimedrand RIP. ig it should still be flashable as long as your STBs emmc health are still at safe level. though you may need to having a UFI box (for flashing directly through emmc) which you sure it won't afford to buy that tools, you can ask it for help flash instead at the nearest service centre if you intent to recover these stbs.
@kitsune Hard brick means there’s a short circuit happens in the eMMC modules. So, unbricking it requires effort and method, but somehow it’s closed (I mean, not much information about that, even though there’s a bunch, some of them are outdated).

if it were the case then you not be able to also recover it by reflashing the software, otherwaise it could still be possible to reflash just the NAND
@mateusz6768 @kitsune It's not recoverable if those are short circuit happened in eMMC area and it affects the chipset, since they close to chipset.
