Is it possible to flash GSIs or flash magisk_patched-boot.img in Bootloader Locked mobiles with this procedure?

A little history
Secure Boot Mediatek devices require loading a specific Download Agent (DA) file to permit flashing / backup operations. You can read more about Secure Boot, DA and Auth in this article . Up until this exploit was discovered, We'd been providing free Mediatek DA files @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-23784.html so feel free to check it out if this exploit doesn't yet support your secure boot MTK device's chipset.
This MTK-bypass procedure can be used to backup firmware, flash firmware or even format partitions on mediatek secure boots without a custom DA

Finally the long wait is over .. and its working flawlessly for my infinix x690 on win 10 .kindly note python method didn't work . after adding filter driver to mtk usb port too. Device kept switching to vcom driver and rebooting after that . what worked was MCT bypass tool by Myannmar creative team which worked without python . just need to install libusb-win32-devel-filter-1.2.6.0.exe . MCT adds filter driver to mtk port on its own . . marvelous .
backed up whole firmware just to be safe . flashed magisk patched image to device with vbmeta on fastboot . no issues .
thanks and kudos . wheels of development will roll again .
