I have cleaned the ME region on a few Apple Macbook BIOS but this A1706 Model BIOS doesnt look correct to me. When I run the ME Analyzer v1.1, I see that it is a Consumer LP ME v11.0.12.1010 with a length of 0x127000. The closest ME I can find to it is the Intel ME Firmware v11.0.24.1000 (CON LP) here https://winraid.level1techs.com/t/in...ols-2-15/30719. The size of the v11.0.24.1000 ME is length 0x1F0000. When I copy the v11.0.24.1000 ME into the A1706 BIOS, it seems to run into another area that has valid data (not FFFFFFFFFFF that I have seen in the past). This doesn't seem right. Its almost like the v11.0.24.1000 firmware is too big. BIOS is attached. Am I doing something wrong?

by a_p3rsonHi there,
I'm looking for anyone who might have information on Apple's embedded Apple Watch charging daughterboard, ID 820-02601. This is currently used by Anker in their Apple Watch charging products, but likely by other Apple partner brands as well.
You can see the board referenced in ChargerLab's teardown of the Anker Y1811 3-in-1 MagSafe cube - they discuss the "Apple Watch wireless charging circuit" about 2/3rds down the page. It's not pictured, but the board ID reads 820-02601-A, which sure sounds like Apple.
This daughterboard uses an interesting...-

by loopsterHello guys,
could I please get some help cleaning the ME region of the attached Zbook 17 G1 bios dump (CH341a, neoprogrammer, chip-desoldered, dumped twice, identical checksum)?
Symptoms, delayed BIOS post (ca. 45 secs.) keyboard not working, touchpad not working, booting linux live, console says "Management engine not configured".
I tried following the ME firmware cleaning guide, but whatever Flash Image Tool version I try, I get the same error:
Error 10: Failed to open with processed commands.
Unable to open file: C:\Users\Elitebook...1 Photo-
