not sure what's exactly your problem. as far as I can guess, you are able to use futurerestore (https://github.com/tihmstar/futurerestore) with the Odysseus (64-bit) method, and you can put your device into pwnDFU mode with this fork of ipwndfu (https://github.com/LinusHenze/ipwndfu_public)

[Discussion] How can I restore an iOS 8 iPhone 5S stuck on the Apple logo?
I was thinking futurerestore. The thing is I need a way to make sure the SEP and baseband remain intact, because iOS 12 SEP and baseband are definitely incompatible with iOS 8. One Discord user told me that futurerestore updates the SEP and baseband to the latest, and I should just wait for a tool to be released that has some way of restoring while maintaining SEP and baseband.
