    Firmware password on A1286 820-2850 A EMC2353

    Hi Everyone,

    Can someone please explain how can I remove firmware password from Mac-book A1286 820-2850 A EMC2353 i5 2.53ghz .

    Do I need to flash the new dump? or I can remove the password from old dump using some method?
    If I use the dump from ghostly hacks and replace the serial number would it work fine?


    Thanks in advance

                Pre 2011 Apple Mac Firmware Password Removal

                1.) DUMP EFI ROM from a EFI Locked mac (PRE 2011 Models) using a BIOS programmer
                2.) Search the below HEX inside the Rom using a Hex Editor (Try HxD) :

                730065006300750072006900740079002D00700061007300730077006F0072006400

                3.) Copy the Hex Between "00 00" "AA 55 7F" or "AA 55 7D" from the HEX Editor
                4.) Go to http://halflight.com.au/wp-content/u...8/macHash.html
                5.) Paste the copied HEX code in to the Hash input field with % instead of spaces between HEX and click Decode. You'll have your password decoded. Enjoy!

                  Request HP Proliant Microserver Gen 8 (J06) BIOS dump to restore system firmware
                  by Ahari
                  Hi all,

                  This is my first post here (I am very new to forums!) and I hope someone can help. I am looking for a full dump of the BIOS of a HP Proliant Microserver Gen 8 so that I can get this mini server running again. (BIOS version J06 2019-04-04, chip 25Q064A). I think my board was partially bricked after a failed BIOS update.

                  I got it second hand in this state and all the normal attempts at bios restoration have not worked. I have even desoldered the chip and tried to load the actual BIOS from HP, but it is missing some parts needed to boot the system.

                  I...

                  Bios password removal on a Unowhy dump
                  by Buzzfuzz2k
                  Hi Everyone,

                  I'm facing a problem with a locked bios with a password and i can't find how to remove it...

                  The small computer is only booting on a M2 ssd Windows partition and i get a "signed partition error" if i try to boot on the same SSD with another Os (linux for example).

                  the Computer is a Unowhy small pc
                  N° UYM6524702229


                  After failling trying to boot on other "none Windows" partition, i wanted to try to remove the bios password.

                  My first attempt was to get the bios dump from windows...

                  Request for MX25VB8035F (1MB) Firmware Dump – Asus TUF Gaming H670-Pro
                  by Tamo Neko
                  Hello everyone,

                  I'm working on an Asus TUF Gaming H670-Pro motherboard and need help finding a firmware dump for the MX25VB8035F (1MB) SPI flash chip.

                  What Happened:
                  I mistakenly removed and erased this 1MB chip, thinking it was part of the main BIOS.
                  • I later found that the board has two main BIOS chips (8MB + 16MB), which I have backups for.
                  • My backup for the MX25VB8035F chip is just an empty 1MB segment filled with FFs, meaning I have no valid data to restore.
                  What I Need:
                  • A firmware dump for the MX25VB8035F chip from the same motherboard (or a compatible
                  ...

                  DUMP DVR HIKVISION DS-7208HGHI-K1 (80389 Rev 1.3 Firmware)
                  by Mephysis
                  Hello guys i really need help, i recently updated my DS-7208HGHI-K1 and it somehow got bricked, I've got it up and working now by flashing a new dump file i found but the serial number is really wrong and the uploader of the dump file probably intentionally did it.

                  I still have the bricked dump file is it possible to transfer the serial number of the "bricked dump" to the "working dump"?

                  Need firmware dump for LG 23MP48HQ-P
                  by gun4as
                  Hello everyone, I have an LG 23MP48HQ-P with a mainboard EAX65543134. After a power flicker, the monitor only shows the "No Signal" message but goes to a black screen with a brief flash when an HDMI/VGA cable is plugged in. I cannot enter the OSD menu. All main voltages (18V, 5V, 3.3V) are stable under load. I made a backup of the firmware, but it was *after* the fault occurred, so my backup is likely corrupted. I flashed it back with no change in behavior. I can only find the firmware for the 24M38H model online. Could someone please share a working firmware dump for the 23MP48HQ-P?...
