Welp, i managed to put the device in EDL mode - via adb, flashed openstick to it but i think i may not have followed everything. The device was only booting in fastboot (i think I was supposed to restore some original partitions). Anyway, i put back the original firmware, device booted fine - again via edl. Then i tried to write openstick again, but for some reason it failed. Now the device is not booting at all, and cannot detect it in either adb, fastboot - so unable to put it on EDL. I think the last resort is to do it via pins, hence can someone help me identify the EDL Pins on this device please
EDIT:
Allright for anyone with my device, i found the EDL pins. I could not reply to my post as the forum is quite limited to new users, but anyway:
To enter EDL Mode on this device:
- Solder some wires to these two pins
- Close the device up - for ease
- Connect usb-c cable
- Short the pins
- Insert battery
- You should be in EDL mode now
- Release pins
Also noteworthy, in my case i have to insert the USB-C a certain way only to for it work (i know - USB-C is USB-A now 
) - so if it does not work, remove cable, battery, insert cable on the other direction - try the steps above again.
