Help Can't reset phone from BIOS to uninstall lockscreen app that I'm locked out of

Can someone please help me here. I've got a rooted Asus Zenfone 2 (Z00A) and I recently installed Next Screen Lock (a lockscreen replacement). I forgot the password and, being tired that day, forgot to email myself the password combination in case I forgot it.



I tried following the instructions from various videos on how to enter recovery mode, but when I tapped the power button to select 'Recovery Mode' it just rebooted back into BIOS mode.



I then tried manually deleting Next Screen Lock by accessing my phone's memory from a PC but since my phone was still locked I couldn't access it.



What do I do?
