The repairing procedure for deleted bootcore during direct boot method is simple. The procedure was described in our support area few years ago.
Anyway the repairng procedure:

connect the phone in "pached boot mode" on 115200 b/s
check bootcore recovery checkbox
press repair button

It is possible that while you were trying to repair the phone you damaged some flash area then it is needed to do the following to revive the phone. Flash with a full unchecking the following checkboxes "firmware are only" and "protect bootcore" and check the following checkboxes if unchecked "bootcore recovery" and "claculate eeprom"

Bootcore IMEI is not important for SST as SST patches the bootcore during bootcore recovery procedure and leaves it to factory state "FFFFFFFFFFFFFF".
