You will first have to install the device-specific deep testing app and submit the application via it. Only after this, you will be able to execute the fastboot flashing unlock command. While this method is pretty straightforward, yet there’s a big catch- the OEM hasn’t released this app for all its devices [such as the Realme 8 series]. So what could be done in such cases? Well, you could still unlock the bootloader on your Realme device using the MTK Client. And in this guide, we will show you how to do just that. Follow along.
