    I cleaned the Me region from your original file, try these two files.

    Good luck ...
    Thanks a lot

            Finally tried this on my T440p, and it worked like a charm. Used a SOIC8 clip w/ a Raspberry Pi. Only issue now is to remove the logo the previous owner put at the boot screen, I should be safe to update the BIOS as well right?

              Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

              Good day, I kindly ask for help from the Lenovo T495 type 20NK pc forum, I dumped the Bios and through your program I generated the PATCHED bin, mounted the W25Q128FW eprom, I turn it on but I only get a black screen and a series of beeps, reinstalling the original bios leaves quietly. Now reading here on the forum I noticed that many complain about this problem, but it seemed to me that two people talking about the T495 have succeeded. Before making other attempts, I would like to understand if anyone has managed to get the PATCHED BIOS to work. Attached I put my original BIOS and the version produced by Tools. Thanks for any help on this.

                I'm really sorry for my stupid questions but i spent like 1 or 2 hours looking for an answer:
                I managed to get a dump of my T570 bios.
                I used autopatcher to get a patched version of it.
                How the f*ck do I get it flashed back to the notebook?

                I used Universal BIOS Backup Toolkit 2.0 to get the backup.
                Which software do you recommend to flash the patched BIOS back to the notebook?
                Thanks for your time - I really appriciate your help!

                  Don't waste any more time, there is no software methods for this job. You'll need a programmer to do it. No other options.

                    Hello. Does this method work with 11th generation intel i3?
                    I have a Lenovo V14 g3 IAP. There is a Bios password that I don't know.

                      thanks man. I thought if I can read it I could also just write it back.
                      Getting an TL866II and solder off the chip is not worth the amount of money/time/risk for my purpose but kind of interesting topic!

                        You can buy ch341a for this job, it's dirty cheap - a few bucks.

                          thanks, I've ordered it and will give it a try. As I've seen there is a kind of pliers I could connect to the chip without needing it to unsolder it. I'll let you know.
                          Cheers

                            what programmer app do you recommend to use with the ch341a?

                                  Hey guys, I need some help, it seems I made a dump of my bios using a W25Q128BV in my CH341A Programmer and I only noticed now that my chip is a W25Q128JVSQ... now I'm stuck in the 2 beeps of death... Is there something that can be done do salvage this?

                                  Can someone please help me to patch this?

                                    Got my ThinkPad X250 supervisor password cleaned, thanks for the app!

                                    I thought my X250 was bricked when I heard 5 beeps at power up(motherboard failure) after flashing the patched BIOS. But it turned out the beep code was 5 short beep [pause] 5 short beep. Which indicates TPM is refusing to power up the laptop, probably due to tampered BIOS.

                                    I redone the patch from Ubuntu and the checksum result is identical to the one generated from Windows so a falsely patched BIOS is ruled out. I almost lost hope as TPM("Security Chip") cannot be deactivated and it was the discrete TPM1.2 instead of PTT. I also tried ME cleaner(+patch) but to no avail, the laptop power button just flashed once then powered off.

                                    Fortunately physical presence for clearing was enabled and Secure Boot was not enabled. I flashed the original locked BIOS and cleared TPM from powershell with clear-tpm -useppi, in hope that the TPM won't complain about the tampered BIOS again.

                                    I flashed the patched BIOS again, then the laptop booted! I just followed the instructions and everything worked as it should. The program did say "TPM certificated changed." before "Turn it off." message. I used a CH341a with a worned out SOIC clip, I had to hold my fingers on the clip all the time when the programming is in progress. At first I used AsProgrammed but it was a hit or miss in my case, then I used Flashrom GUI and all is well.

                                    Your mileage may vary but that's how it worked for me. Hard labor and time consuming but the result is great, saved me $50+ for BIOS unlock service.

                                        I am in the same situation like you up to a point. With patched bios I get Lenovo screen, I press Enter at the ''interrupt start'' message. Then I press F1 to enter setup but I get black screen. I don't have any OS installed on my hard drive, do you have any suggestion?

                                          try the prepatched version, follow the instructions carefully https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=81573
