when will the bootloader unlocking tool be back in use

[LinerFWZ]

ZF10 is fairly good device, but when will you be able to restore the bootloader unlock tool?

Given the current delays, I'm very skeptical of the veracity of the rumors circulating that the tool will be back in use in Q3

Right now this product is in unavailable status for me, it's just a brick

It probably won't be, because Asus canceled the development of ZenFone phones and will only develop the ROG Phone.  It is said to be a restructuring of the entire Asus.  Too bad they canceled this great line.  I am very happy with the ZenFone 9 and before that the ZenFone 5.

Don't forget that there will be a support team for the next 2 years at least. My guess is that ASUS is under serious reconstruction of its departments. This means there will be delays in updates or development in general. I also believe we will see a new "Zenfone" next year but with a different series name (goodbye small screen) or something.

I am also not happy with this situation but let's be patient for now.
