When you need to make an emergency call, it’s completely unexpected to forget the pattern lock of your latest Vivo Y20. At that time, you can certainly go to a repair shop, but wait, you can save a lot of time and money by trying it yourself.
Fortunately, you’ve come to the right place because you would hardly get the entire technique on the internet. Here, we’ll walk you through the whole process of unlocking the Vivo Y20 PD2034F in detail. Aside from that, all pertinent concerns will be addressed. Let’s get started.
What Is EDL Point | Test Point
In the current Vivo y20 or any other model, test points are two small white points attached to the back camera. After removing your phone’s back cover, you’ll be able to see them. Because these points are required to switch your device into Edl mode, they are also known as EDL points.
EDL mode is a specific boot mode that can be found in your phone if it is equipped with a Qualcomm chipset. This mode is required to flash firmware, which aids in Pattern/Password unbricking, restoring, and a variety of other issues.
