 +===== Cannot fastboot from custom image =====
 +
 +**[[https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-48912.html|Oukitel based on Unisoc chip: is it possibile to fastboot boot from a custom image?]]**
 +
 +I tried to root an **Oukitel G2** smartphone, which is based on the Unisoc T606 chip. I tried the procedure based on the script **signidentifier_unlockbootloader.sh**, which uses the identifier token provided by fastboot and an Oukitel leaked RSA key:
 +
 +<code>
 +./signidentifier_unlockbootloader.sh 473230303030303030303036353835 rsa4096_vbmeta.pem signature.bin
 +</code>
 +
 +Unfortunately flashing the **signature.bin** file obtained in that way does not work (I used the required modified **fastboot** binary):
 +
 +<code>
 +./fastboot flashing unlock_bootloader signature.bin
 +2downloading 'unlock_message'...
 +OKAY [  0.001s]
 +unlocking bootloader...
 +FAILED (remote: Unlock bootloader fail.)
 +</code>
 +
 +May be this phone is locked with a different **rsa4096_vbmeta.pem** key.
 +
 +Does anyone know if it is possibile to boot using fastboot and a custom kernel image?
 +I extracted the **boot-gki.img** file from the ROM image, then I patched it using Magisk 26.4 (patching seems successfully), ten in bootloader mode I executed:
 +
 +<code>
 +fastboot boot magisk_patched-26400_Y9t93.img
 +</code>
 +
 +But it seems that the phone starts with the stock kernel image, because Magisk says it is not installed and root is not available.
 +
 +  * Yes, I enabled the Developer options => OEM unlocking
 +  * Yes, I tried the standard fastboot flashing unlock, fastboot oem unlocking, etc.

 I decided anyway to test the program by installing it on a "sacrificial" Windows PC. In my assessment, Best Flashing Tool falls somewhere between being **unreliable software** and **outright malware or a scam**. I decided anyway to test the program by installing it on a "sacrificial" Windows PC.

 Every antivirus program flags it as malicious (e.g., Avast: **Win32:MalwareX-gen**, BitDefender: **Gen:Variant.Yogi.11731**, etc.). If you proceed with the installation anyway, the program refuses to launch, displaying the error: "Failed to check for new version." Every antivirus program flags it as malicious (e.g., Avast: **Win32:MalwareX-gen**, BitDefender: **Gen:Variant.Yogi.11731**, etc.).
