Asus Unlock Tool not working on Zenfone 9

[someruser87]

Recently received an Asus Zenfone 9 and the Asus Unlock App is returning "Failed to unlock your device, please try again later.[24802]" when attempting to unlock the bootloader.  While running logcat I also see the following HTTP output:

It was mentioned that the maintenance work started from the date of May 2

@Aureliannn_ASUS

Until now, the unlocking application does not work with most Asus phones

My phone is

ROG Phone 6D Ultimate

The unlocking tool does not work
And it shows me error code 24803 or 24802
It was updated to Android 13 and reverted to Android 12, but the same problem
We all have to wait for the problem to be resolved, and I think it will take more time

[AhmadRehan98]

wish there were more transparency.

i'd be better to know if something went wrong and have updates rather than just "maintenance"  

[syukrilajin]

I doubt they even know what went wrong and just outsource it to someone. The fact is they didn't even know it was down until someone puts it here.

[buggeo]

Indeed but at least they should provide some different methods of unlocking the phone, first time I buy an asus and I already regret it. As someone said before... It's my phone and need to have the possibility to unlock it whenever I want

[syukrilajin]

Yeah. I don't know why they made it hard to unlock, a simple web page to get an unlock code is more than enough, no need to complicate it with an app
