If you insert \showtokens{#3} at the beginning of your redefined \chapterlinesformat, you'll see this on the terminal and in the log file:
> \interlinepenalty \@M Digital Services of the University\@@par .
\chapterlinesformat #1#2#3->\showtokens {#3}
\myExtractFirstLetter {#3}\makeb...l.32 \chapter*{Digital ...

If I understand you correctly, you want to start the \part on odd pages (not left-sided, is it?) and keep \chapter to start on both even and odd pages.
You can do this by using the \cleardoublepage command which does the same thing as \clearpage but also adds a blank page if needed. You can then redefine the \part macro to call \cleardoulepage before ...

As you (and the KOMA-Script documentation) note, the argument #3 contains \@@par at its very end, which is what's bothering you. KOMA-Script does not provide a hook to insert text after the title.
The easiest hack is to just remove the \@@par and insert it after the inserted code.

After I completed your MWE by adding \begin{document} chapter title and text \end{documernt} it only compiled with erros such as \color being undefined and problem with the \fontsize{150}{60} not available and size <24.88> being substituted.
However, you can raise the \chaptername typesetting like this:
% chaptitleprob.tex SE 567408

This seems a fully functional implementation of your requirements.
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{endnotes}
\usepackage{alphalph}
\renewcommand{\theendnote}{\alphalph{\value{endnote}}}
\newcommand{\resetendnotes}{%
\setcounter{endnote}{0}%
\addtoendnotes{%
\par\protect\addvspace{\topsep}%

To make appendices behave that way, you should be using subappendices and sections.
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{appendix}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{one}
\lipsum[4-10]
\chapter{two}\label{test}
\lipsum[4-10]
\begin{subappendices}
\section{app2.1}
\lipsum[4-10]
\section{app2.2}
\lipsum[4-10]
\end{...

Since you are using book class the following will do the trick:
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{titlesec}% <-- to change chapter, section,... style
\usepackage[titles]{tocloft}% <-- changes to ToC
\usepackage{blindtext}
%rename \thechapter to easy display in ToC
\renewcommand{\cftchappresnum}{Chapter }
%punctuation for chapters in ToC

You are losing the first letter as \texorpdfstring takes two arguments, the tex version for the document and the version for the pdf bookmark, so
\texorpdfstring{\MakeUppercase Li}ifetime
is
\texorpdfstring{\MakeUppercase{L}i}{i}fetime
and has no L in the string used for the bookmark, you could use
\texorpdfstring{\MakeUppercase{L}i}{Li}fetime
But (with ...

Here is an extended version that shifts and wraps around. It's based on the example of @jessexknight.

Here is a solution (edited) using the thumbs package, as requested in the comments. I removed my old solution because I think the advanced behaviour of the thumbs package is essentially always preferable.
Apologies I started from scratch as I wasn't sure what all in your MWE was actually needed.

To obtain the graphic, we overwrite the \rule within \...

In report class you can get a centred page number in the page foot, and no page head using
\pagestyle{plain}
(Which is the style already used on chapter openings)
You can use
\pagenumbering{roman}
and
\pagenumbering{arabic}
To use roman or arabic numbers, setting the page count to 1 in each case.

Simply use titlesec. Add these lines to your preamble:
\usepackage{titlesec}
\titleformat{\chapter}[display]{\bfseries\filcenter}{\huge\chaptername~\thechapter}{3.8ex}{\Huge}[\vskip 1ex{\titlerule[1pt]}]

I don't think the appendix package provides the machinery you need. Fortunately, it's not difficult to provide the needed setup instructions -- specifically, \addcontentsline, \setcounter, and \renewcommand\thesection directives -- yourself.
\documentclass[a4paper]{report}

\tableofcontents
\chapter{First chapter}
\section{Introduction}

I'm not sure, why you used the package fancyhdr, so I removed it. In standard book class file \pagestyle{headings} is the default one, so no need to call it sesparately.
\frontmatter tag will handle the \pagenumbering{roman} by auto, and \mainmatter will handle all the tags \setcounter{page}{0}\pagenumbering{arabic}\setcounter{page}{1}
\markboth tag will ...
