As soon as the mission started I flank, then I go to periscope depth. Then they pinged me and I go down to 200m depth. I wait the firsts charges and when they drop them in the water, I turn left or right at flank speed. 10 seconds later I go back to 0 knots, 30 RPM. Then the deep charges explode, and instantly they start to ping me.
I tried the same like 10 times, and they always ping me as soon the depth charges end their explosion... I don't have that minute to move freely, even at 0 knots.

With multiple escorts surrounding you it will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to flank speed away for a full minute without one or more hearing you. That works best when the depth charge explosions are between you and the escort(s). If one or more escorts are on the same side of the explosions as you are, they are very likely to hear you when you hit flank speed.
When you have multiple escorts (like you do in that mission) one thing to try is, as soon as they start dropping depth charges, is to go to flank speed and make a sharp turn (between 45 - 60 degrees) and keep at flank speed until a few seconds after the last depth charge explodes, then immediately drop to 1 - 2 knots/silent running.
With only one or two escorts, as long as both are on the far side of the depth charge explosions, you should be able to sprint at flank for a longer time.
Also, the destroyer crews' efficiency for the "Hunted" mission is "veteran", which is level 4 out of 5, which means they're even harder to confuse than average crews.
Remember, the depth charge noise mod isn't intended to make evading and escaping a "done deal".
