Dell Wyse 5070 BIOS update not possible

Hi,
I would be truly happy if anyone could help with this. I have a Dell Wyse 5070 Extended thin client and upgraded the bios to 1.32.0, downloaded from Dell's support website.
After the upgrade, BIOS completely changed, and amber blinking started as in the video. According to the guide, the 3+3 blink is a ‘BIOS Recovery 1, Recovery Image not found, Type A' error message. However, I think there is something wrong with the BIOS.
What I have tried:- I formatted the USB to FAT32, put Wyse_5070_1.0.4.exe, Wyse_5070_1.10.2.exe, Wyse_5070_1.32.0.exe on the root, one-by-one, and tried to boot several times with and without nvme. It didn't work.
- I wanted to flash the BIOS again. However, it freezes on “preparing one-time boot menu…” So I cannot access the BIOS flash tool.
- I bought a USB keyboard and tried to enter BIOS recovery by pressing Ctrl+ESC. It did not work, and I ended up in EFI shell.
- There is no “Boot mode” option in the BIOS to switch to legacy mode.
- I have formatted a USB drive with MS-DOS and plugged it into USB 2.0 ports, so I can run the BIOS flash. It never boots on that USB. (Probably, the client is stuck in UEFI)
- I bought another Dell Wyse 5070 (not extended) and installed Windows 10 LTSC 2019 on nvme, with all drivers installed. It freezes during booting with the Windows logo.
- The client freezes when it starts to boot any kind of UEFI OS.
- It even freezes when I ctrl+alt+del on EFI shell or BIOS screen.
- I have bought another power adapter, thinking it might be a power issue. Nope, it did not resolve the issue.
- The boot sequence menu never lists USBs.
I have been dealing with this for more than a week with searching. As last resort, I am posting. I truly appreciate any help.

by mikeybassHi, I hope some one has some advice for me. I searched the forums but didn't see anything relevant. I acquired two identical Dell 9010 Mid Tower computers from a business office upgrade (they were going to throw them out). Both of them have the same motherboard (00F82W). One of them works flawlessly. The other one had a corrupted BIOS. I tried flashing numerous main BIOS and EC files from the internet, but none of them worked. I decided to copy the main BIOS and EC from the working 9010 computer and successfully flashed the corrupted BIOS. This got the computer able to boot again and run norm...

by lalle-Hello!
I have a problem with a Dell G5 SE 5505 laptop that I hope someone can give me a few pointers on.
[OK, it's not really a laptop, I'm running the motherboard on my desktop with only cooling, RAM and an M2 drive attached.]
I had some performance issues, so I decided to update my BIOS from 1.7.0 to the latest version, 1.20.0.
The computer restarted and the update dit not want to continue without a battery connected, even though I used dell's method of bypassing this requirement.
I tried updating to a custom BIOS from Reddit user Satori_Nori https://www... -
by zeniusHello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.
Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...-
