With out keys it's mostly impossible to introduce new boot code into the system.

There isn't a practical way to 'turn off HS' with out destroying the omap chip itself.

The way to add code would be through what ever mechanism the OEM has left to add code into the system (if any).  From there depending on software some kind of KEXEC could be attempted.
