Is anyone else straight up not able to unlock their bootloader?

The title pretty much says it all- the one click method, the official method and the unofficial method all don't work and I'm really itching to get my hands on CM13. Anyone know why I just can't unlock my bootloader no matter what?

EDIT: i forgot to say that when i try to use the fastboot loader it just says "unlock fail... rebooting in 5 seconds" and i cant even factory reset my phone due to this...

Disable any screen lock you have (pattern/PIN) -- that's what fixed it for me. If you've already done that, I've tried nothing and I'm out of ideas!

Thank you. This fixed it for me after much fretting.

Did you disable encryption as well?

Wrong phone perhaps? There are many ZF2 variants.

check if you have the right update installed for the unlocker. you might have to make an OTA update.
