WARNING: P20 pro, mate 20 pro etc

i got a dcunlocker licence to convert a mixed batch of demo units P20 pro, mate 20 lite and several others as all info seemed to state its possible.

but when i tested it out the bootloader writes fine then the device reboots to fastboot where it makes a fruitless attempt to flash the oeminfo partition via fastboot (of course this doesnt work as the bootloader is locked)

thinking i must be doing something wrong as it clearly states an unlocked bootloader is not needed i went to the live chat where i was told that it is actually a very hit and miss process which doesnt work more often than it does, heres the chat:

oh ok, is it more common that it doesnt work? i dont want to commit to getting several of these devices if its highly unlikely to work

that's correct
they have offered a refund but im still stuck with a useless device
