make a duckface
make the tip of your tongue touch your bottom teeth
now open up your lips very slightly and move your upper lip until you whistle

Never get frustrated and start pushing air harder. That will just make you light-headed and mad. It's not about how hard you blow (or suck), though this advice may not apply to the fingers-in-mouth methods. Just gotta keep messing around with tongue position and lip/cheek positions and shapes. Do it slowly and quietly until you feel like you're maybe close to something and just keep messing around. You need to be patient and expect it will take a long time. This is something most people learn as kids by having a lot of time. Also try breathing inwards instead of blowing out. It feels quite different and could help you make a breakthrough. I first learned as a kid to whistle on the inhale. If you aren't getting it that just means you're not being patient or thorough or creative enough. Good luck!
