Spreadtrum SC9832 Micromax Bharat 2 Q402 - Bootloader Unlock

Hi,

I did the exact same thing to unlock bootloader of Micromax Q402, but on bootloader mode Q402 does not show any msg on screen, it is just black / blank screen.

So after giving command "fastboot oem unlock" it stuck, i cannot see anything on mobile screen to proceed. So I give "fastboot reboot" and come out.

I tried many times to unlock bootloader of this device, but nothing.. All the drivers and everything is properly installed.

I want to root this phone anyhow, i tried with Kingroot, Kingoroot, Tunesgo, Dr.Fone Root, but nothing..

Can you please help.. Thanks..


Edit: Well, just to mention, it is already done! Rooted thru Magisk, patch boot.
