SM allow manufacturers to alter the standard firmware on SM controllers. That’s why there are so many loaders. This one may not be supported. That and the fact its QLC and not seeing all parts of all chips probably means the NANDs have degraded (but that issue may also relate to incorrect firmware). As Luke says try PC3000 as they may have the correct loader.
Did you try to build the translator after uploading the stock CPs?

Subject: CONTROLER SM2258XT G AB 240 GB
Friends, I have an SSD with a SM2258XT G AB 240 controller, TOB brand, with chips 9FB2D NW852 7XB22 NW853 I THINK MICRON. I TRIED ACCESSING IT WITH SEVERAL LOADERS IM3D_00, but both gave errors, only one passed S1007A0 IM3D_00, BUT THE CP list doesn't load.
THE STRANGER THING IS THAT WHEN I TRY TO CREATE THE VIRTUAL TRANSLATOR IT RECOGNIZES IT AS 223.57 GB, with controller sm2258ab-80-100000000. When I try to test disk scanning tools, it recognizes it as 109.25 GB with controller sm2246xt. and I can test it, but I can't access the data
Does anyone know or have the correct loader for this device?
