On my zenfone 5 model worked perfectly. What's you model ? also T00J ?
It worked perfectly on yours? It's very likely that your device doesn't even encounter the freezing issue. If your phone encounters the problem, no bootloader unlock method out there would work. It WILL work "perfectly" for any device that doesn't already have the issue.

Hi there,
I want to share with you a bootloader unlock method that worked perfectly for me.

STEPS:
  • Download official stock kitkat rom: ROM
  • Extract boot, fastboot and recovery from it and flash them from fastboot then flash the rom
  • Download official Asus tool for unlocking bootloader: TOOL
  • Install it and follow the procedure

If all goes fine when you switch on the phone the background behind the Asus logo is white instead of black.

It's easy and maybe a "stupid" method but it worked on my Zenfone 5 T00J.
The firmware listed in this topic is the only for me that allowed to use correctly the unlocking bl app.

If there are problems, I'm available :good:
Man, be corrects please, this unlock is ONLY for kitkat, if you will use lollipop you will get freezing, everyy unlock works corectly on kitkat...

No, you unlock the bootloader with kitkat, and after you are able to install the rom that you want, for exemple I m on custom stock lollipop rom with custom kernel and I don't have any bugs
