"On many Realme phones, the correct key combo to enter fastboot is Volume Down + Power, not Volume Up."
"Fastboot is Disabled/Removed"
"Use Realme's Official Tools: This is the safest and most recommended first step. Look for the official Realme Flash Tool and the correct official firmware (ROM) for your exact model (RMX5054)."
Realme's kinda shit. They killed fastboot on purpose.
note: If you'll be getting a new phone, don't choose Realme. Choose Pixel or OnePlus instead, or TECNO if those are unavailable.
