I have been trying to unlock the bootloader of Huawei Mate 20X phones.
I have Mate 20X(EVR-AL00) and Mate 20X 5G(EVR-N29).
First I bought an EVR-N29 and attempted to unlock the bootloader but failed.
So I thought something was wrong with this device to unlock the bootloader then I purchased another Mate 20X(EVR-AL00) just to get the model rooted.
Unfortunately, this phone also was unable to be unlocked, end up having two locked Mate 20X.
The exact model specs and procedure I took are as follows.
1.Mate 20X 5G
EVR-N29
Android 9
EMUI 9.11
9.1.1.188(C636E2)
2.Mate 20X(EVR-AL00)
EVR-AL00
Android 10
EMUI 10.0.0
10.0.0.188(C00E74R2P8)
First and foremost I could not recognize the devices with DCPhoenix v164, v170, and v174 (the DCPhoenixes freeze forever in the process of "Looking for devices by ports").
So I used DCPhoenix v158 which successfully recognized the devices.
And somehow I could not enable software testpoint on both devices. (even EVR-N29 which is installed on Android 9)
So I connect them to the PC with Hardware testpoint mode.
As for EVR-N29, I could
1. Succecefuly downgrade to Android 9
2. Succecefuly connect the PC with hardware testpoint mode
3. Unlock the bootloader in HCU where the log of the process describes that it is unlocked successfully.
But when I reboot the devices to bootloader mode to check the device is unlocked, it says the lock status is locked.
And I failed to install Magisk to get the device rooted.

As for EVR-AL00,
First and foremost It could not be recognized with a normal USB cable so I connected it with a Harmony TP Cable.
And I failed to downgrade the device to Android 9 by HiSuite.Proxy with every Android 9 stock roms that I could find on the internet. (Probably because of the mismatch of vendor and country)
So I attempted to forcefully downgrade the device by rewriting vendor, country, and model using HCU/DCPhoenix since the device needs to be on Android 9 to make the bootloader unlocked. (Am I correct?)
But they failed to read the partition and oem info in the process of rewriting.
The log is following:
24/06/16 13:28:15
HCU Client v1.0.0.0382
Account: zjapam
Before operation turn phone to TestPoint mode:
Turn off phone, then short TestPoint on phone pcb
and plug USB cable
Wait for device "HUAWEI USB COM 1.0" in Ports

What else can I do to unlock the bootloader of the devices?
You said Mate 20X can be unlocked.
Since I have consumed so much money and time, I would like a refund if it is impossible.
Thank you,
