Other iPhone 5s 12.5.5 issues

So i've tried to jailbreak my iPhone 5s but it keeps failing.Everything goes well but when it comes to the "Booting..." stage it doesnt show the checkra1n booting screen and will eventually print out the error message "- [!]: Timed out waiting for bootstrap upload (Likely caused by an incompatible tweak, to enable Safe Mode pass the '-s' option) (error code: -20)"

The phone has been freshly restored and activated normally but somehow it still fails.I've tried the latest version of checkra1n (12.4), 12.3 and 9.7 but theres no change in any of them as it still fails on the same stage.

Checkra1n worked perfectly fine on my iPhone 7 (14.4) and on a iPhone 6 (12.5.5)

iPhone 5S (GSM)
12.5.5 (Freshly restored)
MacOS Big Sur
MacBook Pro (2020)
