    Lenovo Thinkpad bios pw or bios needed. edge 15 0301-GVG

    The client wanted to dust off this old laptop of his, wanted new OS installed but has a master password on the bios which he totally forgot. I'd like to either rewrite the bios in the hopes of removing the pass so I can install new OS. Or maybe someone knows how to generate a master pass?

    Lenovo Think Pad, Tye 0301-GVG, have the S/N too if needed.
    Product ID: 0301GVG
    MB model: DAGC6AMB8F0 REV: F

    TY!

              Summary of BIOS Whitelist Removal Problem


              Problem:
              I am attempting to remove the WWAN card whitelist from my Lenovo ThinkPad T560.
              Initial Findings:
              • My current BIOS version is N1KET58W (1.45).
              • I have a CH341A programmer and have successfully created two full backups of my BIOS.
              • I have the ability to use command-line tools on a Linux machine.
              Troubleshooting Steps & Conclusions:
              • I attempted to use several automated and manual patching methods on my N1KET58W (1.45) BIOS, including using hex strings. These attempts all failed.

              Need Clean BIOS/EC Bin File for Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e - Stuck with 0275 Error CMS

              Hello everyone,

              I am attempting a repair on a Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e that is currently stuck at boot with the error: "0275 error CMS" even after setup new bios battery and will not allow me to enter the BIOS/Setup.

              This is a critical issue that I believe requires flashing the BIOS chip directly using a programmer (e.g., CH341A/RT809H), as standard software updates or resets are not possible.

              I have opened the laptop and identified the main BIOS chip...

              Lenovo ThinkPad L15 Gen 1 i7 (20U4) Bios and EC dump needed
              by Joluvillas
              Hi all! I was reading on tutorials how to flash a bios to remove password from a bios, and I ended up reading the EC chip instead of the main bios chip, it only gave me a .bin file of 1,024kb, I learned later that that is the EC chip not the main bios chip (I should have read the tutorials here instead before attempting anything, my bad), I went to flash the original backup, the 1,024kb size file into the same chip and laptop is not powering up anymore. I may have screwed the chip or even the motherboard (Hopefully not), I am trying to see if there is a fix before I discard it. I had a couple...

              Lenovo ThinkPad L15 G3 Bios 1 IC conductor track
              by 1g0r
              Hello everyone,

              First, the data in brief:
              Manufacturer: Lenovo
              Model: ThinkPad L15 G3 21C3-0016GE
              motherboard: LG4 LT5 ADL RT UMA MB 8L - 448.0PZ26.0011
              IC Bios 1: MX77L25650F
              IC Bios 2​: MX25L25673G
              EC Chip: NPCX997KAABX

              So far I've been a silent reader, but now I need your help

              I bought a laptop. The seller said the bios was locked. I was looking for a way to remove this ban.
              I then got the CH341A and pulled the corresponding files from here https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...evices-and-ele...
              The laptop was brought in with a BIOS problem and a password. After reading the dump, the information was damaged. I ask for help in the BIOS with a clean ME region. Motherboard 213035-1. Serial number: PW+04e998, Type number: 21c3-0016ge

              Fixed: Lenovo P14s Gen 1 (type 20Y1, 20Y2) Laptop (ThinkPad) bricked by a withdrawn BIOS update (r1buj82w)
              by akwky
              Hi!
              Went dumpster-diving and found a bricked Lenovo P14S in trash, few weeks earlier. Symptoms - no screen, no POST, no beep, just keyboard LEDs flashing on powerup. Mute button+LED was responding though, and the display self-test was still working (via the key combo Ctrl+Fn+Power held for some seconds, see the Service manual).

              Incidentally, Windows 11 have recently started auto-flashing computer BIOS in our region. Even more suspiciously, Lenovo has released a BIOS update just few days before the PC was trashed. About a week later, the BIOS update image has been oficially marked...
