I did not understood the whole picture you described, but I'm guessing that you enabled the "Auto RCM" option. When it is enabled, it will not boot without a payload. When it is off it will boot straight to system nand.

AS an additional note, do avoid following video guides because things change a lot over the time, and video is not updatable while written guides are.

Did you install AutoRCM? If AutoRCM is installed, it won't boot to stock OFW and you need to use the payload dongle every time.
