    Thank you very much! This is what I needed.

            I have a 2000 MacBook Air that is iCloud locked. Bought it on E-bay for me to study. I also have a full working MacBook Air (2000) that I connected to try to use DFE. But all I get is a Big Paddlock on the Host machine. I tried to connect to CheckM8 software, but that does not work either. I'm just a hobbyist that does not like Macs junked when they can be fixed. THX.
            Good luck on your quests!

                Ah this sounds very good indeed

                I wonder was there an additional ROM located somewhere that has this info separate from the actual rom IC itself as a cover. As work on so many of these boards and are a pain in my back side LOL

                Well done for finding a solution

                  That post was 5 months ago; no progress made on unlocking Activation-Locked M1 boards/units as of right now. If anyone says otherwise, request hard proof and confirm it's not just a bypass.

                    Hi

                    Yes seems I was a bit late for the party however more interested in perm solution to MDM removal as opposed to the FMM unlocking. Keep up the good work guys

                        mdm never permanent remove ( only when old owner delete serial from mdm server) or you must change the serial on mac

                              Yes we already know how to sort previous models it is just M1 versions, I wonder if anyone has investigated the similar IC next to the CPU on the schematics says it's another ROM ?????

                                There was a topic posted here before: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showth...103095&page=18

                                Unfortunately, someone seems to have locked it. No idea why, there's no message from a moderator.

                                  Morning all

                                  I have a question so if one changes the serial of said T2 device to that of another T2 same year same spec colour etc etc no FMM and maybe an MDM lock is there not something in the T2 that verifies all is well or is there something else that needs changing.

                                  Ok reason I ask running sys config will be greyed out if the above happens of course I am sure you guys know what I am talking about. Just wondered if it stores the previous serials of all components in T2.

                                  Then if there is changes to this the system will not allow connection to Apple network for configuring i.e Touch ID, TOP-CASE DISPLAY as all these have serial numbers written to something during the process.

                                  Please excuse my loose terms in case of prying eyes

                                  Thanks for any input you very clever people

                                    Is there a tutorial on how to do the intel T2 unlock here?

                                          Hey Stephen, have you heard of the software method for editing T2 serial? I came across the download link, but it's a paid service.
                                          I'm wondering if your software guy could work around it and make it free for all.

                                            T2 Macbook MDM Unlock by S/N change.
                                            by keats11
                                            I was hoping someone could point me to a tutorial on MDM unlock. Basically, I picked up a Macbook (A1989) from someone which did not have OS installed. The guy said it started software update and but did not finish. Long story short, the touchbar on this device has some kind of a short, so after unplugging it, I was able to install the OS on it, when I found out that it is also MDM locked by his company. I tried changing the serial number on the ROM by only changing a couple of digits of the original serial number. Now after installing the ROM back, the Macbook appears dead = DFU mode. When I...

                                            General question about MacBook power rails for repair.
                                            by SarcasticOP
                                            I am looking at an A2337 and found this for the order of power rails and what they do. Can this be confirmed before I dive into hunting down power rails that do not exist or are not neccisary?
                                            • PPBUS_G3H (12.6V-12.8V)
                                              • This is the main power rail that supplies power to the entire system. Check this rail first, as it must be present for other power rails to work.
                                            • PP3V42_G3H (3.42V)
                                              • This power rail is derived from PPBUS_G3H and is used to power the SMC (System Management Controller) and other essential circuits. It should be present if PPBUS_G3H is working correctly.
                                            • PPVRTC_G3H (3.3V)
                                              • This

                                            M1 MacBook Air 820-02016 possible to swap ROMs to unlock a locked board?
                                            by mitchw
                                            I have a liquid damaged 820-02016 that has a 1-2mm wide hole in the PCB caused by a burned capacitor. The PPBUS_VON is shorted. I think the board is 100% gone, I tried grinding off the burned PCB material with no avail, the board is burned almost through to the other side.

                                            But, I can get a fully working iCloud locked mainboard for very cheap.

                                            As far as I have seen, there are only two ROM chips on the board, the TBT ROM and main flash.

                                            Is it possible to transfer these two ROMs from the bad board to the good locked one and "unlock" the good...
