    Chinese windows tablet bios lock removal

    Long story short: bought a 8” generic windows tablet (based on Atom x5-z8350, bios chip model is Gigadevice 25LQ64CVIG, uefi vendor is AMI Aptio) for some experiments, and it came with bios lock! I dont have any decent 1.8v programmers at hand nor do i have knowledge in modding uefi firmware, so decided to play safe: dumped the bios with AFU utility, which i attach here. I am hoping to get it unlocked. Also included hwinfo screenshots with general information, the board itself looks generic without any markings.

    Backup bios with programmer + serial number.

      ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
      by jbonavita
      Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
      With original bios no POST, only LED lights
      With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
      Some issues
      A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
      B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized

      Things I tried

      1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble...

      Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request
      by Wahaz
      Hello,

      I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
      So I thought it was a Bios problem.
      I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V....
