you need stock rom for your device, if you don't have that then dump from your phone using wwr at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21970.html
root using magisk at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21427.html
port twrp using our porting tool at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21839.html

I also discovered that vcom port on device manager has a warning ⚠ sign, I believe that could be the possible reason..
how do I fix it.

That's not a problem. You only getting that because you installed an unsigned driver

Seems your device has Secure Boot and might require a custom DA.
First try other fixes for this error code 0xC0060003 @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-439.html
if all fail then we focus on the da file

okay.. Trying the solution on the link above, but most of the step there I have done it except using a different PC to perform the read back..
