        Password removal on MacBook Pro A2159
        by mferna14
        Hi friends., I am working on MacBook Pro A2159 touchbar 2019. The old logic board was liquid spilled so I ordered another logic board from AE. Received it & all worked fine till I got to the Chinese login screen where the login screen password tobe entered. I tried to reset the password but it again gave me options which I do not know about the Apple ID. I formatted the onboard SSD. & wanted to change the startup boot sequence but in order to change it, again the password is needed for that too. Is there a way to get rid of this password?? The seller has not replied back past 2 days, how...

        Lenovo Yoga X380 22LH Supervisor Password removal
        by AppleLover123
        Hey guys,

        have a laptop here that has a supervisor Password (dump in Attachements).
        Before i write the Serial NR.etc i wanted to say that strangely after flashing with 3 different Bios dumps and one from lenovos site
        the laptop works but everytime it wants me to type a supervisor password i never set.
        I thought the supervisor password is stuck in the ec bios but no it isn't either because after replacing the ec chip from one of another board it still has the supervisor password.
        Anyway i wanted to ask what of the two chips is the ec bios because on the left...

        MacBook Air 13 2014 - Remove EFI password
        by ritalo
        Hello,

        I have a MacBook Air 13 inches 2014.

        I have set a EFI password and I can't remember it : now I want to reinstall macOS and I can't because the MacBook is asking for the password.

        I know how to remove the password with a usb programmer.
        I plug the usb programmer to the motherboard and to my pc with usb, I read the EFI and I save it to a file.

        Then I have to find this value in the file : $SVS because it indicate where is the password.

        But I can't find the value.

        I have attached the file​

        Thank...

        Looking for 13" Macbook Pro A1278 mid 2012 820-2565-A Schematics and Board View
        by Rezendes
        Hello, I am looking for any and all files related to the mainboard for 820-2565-A (13" Macbook Pro A1278 mid 2012) schematics/board view.

        I looked through forum search results and google and was unable to find a board view file, I found a pdf of all the schematics but I don't know where the parts physically are on the board as this is my first macbook board level repair attempt.

        The macbook charger has a green light, the battery has been replaced and OS reports Normal status but Not charging. After cleaning a corroded capacitor it crumbled off the board. There...
