Phone stuck on bootloop

Tried restoring/updating with iTunes and 3uTools with latest ios.

On 3uTools trying to fix flash, it stops at 34%, on the "Updating NAND Firmware", after the phone shows the Apple logo and the update progress bar, then it hangs for a minute then reboot and returns to restore mode.

The battery was replaced 5-6 years ago, can this be battery related or a NAND failure?

Noticed that from uTools, if I launch a standard "Quick Flash" the phone reboot and goes back to restore mode after the "Sending KernelCache".

If I check the "fix Battery" option, it reaches the "Updating NAND Firmware" before going back into restore mode after 1 minute and no visible progress on the bar.
