If using other device, there is no option to repair data. You may need to buy donor dashboard and adapt with ODIS online Geko.

Buy other dash adapt with odis geko. Buy new (no used) instrument cluster and learn via odis online.
User working experience:

Donor cluster and write dflash from old one onto it which allows to program the key, car starts and runs ok and ODIS used to configure the rest of dashboard.
