Update from Asus

The service team reply misunderstood the situation. Unlock tool is unavailable at this moment but we are allowing the possibility to unlock, please stay tuned.

**TL;DR

  • ASUS has apparently withdrawn the ability to unlock the bootloader on its phones.
  • As per the company’s technical support team, Zenfone 10 and Zenfone 9 users won’t be able to root their phones.

Ah the peak of security, third party custom roms. Accept your hobby isnt popular and move on, grown ups like their banking apps working

Yeah, you can use Open source roms.

Why being against freedom? Allowing ROMs and root won’t affect you if you don’t want to use them.

No need to be unpleasant too.

Unpleasant lol top thread comment starts with fuck off, the whole thread is unpleasant. Btw open source means nothing if u cant read the code, hoping others will check it for you is not what we call security. So the venn diagram of those programmers who are also willing to read the code with the number of adults willing to not use banking apps leaves us with <1% people who can responsibly root. If you complain for 0 expect an “unpleasant” reality check
