Notes

At the moment, there is only one way to unlock the bootloader by replacing the EMMC flash with subsequent reflashing.

BL unlocking

To unlock the bootloader, you need to replace the EMMC chip and then reflash the boot0 and boot1 partitions on it. For this, you can use a card reader based on Realtek RTS* controllers. In my case, it is RTS5139.
