Maybe there is a problem with bad soldering? And that it fell on the occasion of the update is maybe a pure coincidence? Maybe there is some micro-short circuit?
Like this one?

Did you use the unpacked .bin file, not the .zip folder for the software as renamed flash.bin?

Hi, could get off the metal cap on tuner and make a good resolution photo, what a chip is inside?

You must put the renamed firmware flash.bin in a USB connected in the Finder and when you turn on the Finder press menu
If it is not installed it is because of not incorrectly renaming the firmware

From your other post that has the youtube video, I see you have a early model Finder 2, GREEN.

These Green finder 2 units have a small 3.7 volt battery in them.

I suggest you try the recovery with the charger connected to help keep the voltage up during power on / boot.
Or try after fully recharged.

It may be a problem with the USB or the flash.bin file
