I have an old Asus Zenfone 4 that randomly got stuck in a boot loop while it was recharging, and now I don't know how to fix it, or even if it is possible to fix. The only thing that still works is fastboot mode (recovery mode doesn't work either, so SD cards are out of question).
I have tried a number of things to factory reset the phone and see if it changes anything, but it seems impossible to unlock its partitions for flashing: commands such as
Does anyone know a way to either unlock this device or factory reset it without unlocking?

fastboot flashing unlock
, fastboot oem asus-go
or anything similar just throw errors saying that the command doesn't exist, or if it does, that I don't have permission to run them. For this same reason, I couldn't use things such as TWRP as I can't flash any of the partitions on my phone. Additionally, I have tried to enable adb through fastboot oem, but even though the command is successful, whenever I get the system info, it says that adb debugging is still off.Does anyone know a way to either unlock this device or factory reset it without unlocking?
