Re: Remove_SMM... UEFI.
Fairly new here, but I'm also interested in this if you are willing to help me
I got an T480s that Lenovo sent out as a replacement for an old T460s that died and the T480s came with a supervisor password from the refurbishing center in China.Comment

Re: Remove_SMM... UEFI.
So this is the LenovoTranslateService file I patched so it would accept any key.
I did test it on X260 and it did work well. But when I tested it on X270, there would be beeps but no display.
I know that 6th, 7th and 8th gen share the same LenovoTranslateService and BootOptions file (I compared patched files for different models). There may be another file needed ?!Comment

Re: Remove_SMM... UEFI.
For that model you might need different file. I am not sure because I haven't compared 4th/5th gen to 6th/7th/8th gen yet. But try it first and let me know.
Don't forget BootOptions and SystemPpisNeededByDxe which are found in some previous post in this topic.Comment

Re: Remove_SMM... UEFI.
@RethoricalCheese - Do you know if your patched file works on both 7 and 9 digit ID's, or does that not matter and as long as file is compatible with system it should work?
I don't need right now, can't test, only following along to try and learn and or help, to be able to sort this out for others later who need unlocked.
What you did was my first thought too, jump different or bypass area, before it was mentioned on page 1 post #11 - good to see that was a good idea and it's now proven working method at least on some systems.
I guess from my end, it doesn't help that I'm not familiar with these models or what generation is what
We need to put together a package of files xx1 set for xxgen1/models and then another for xx2 set for xxgen2/models.
If you need help trying to figure out how to patch anything let me know, I am good at than kind of thing too, but do not own any of these systems (only help people with BIOS often)Comment

Re: Remove_SMM... UEFI.
BIOSG3tta3, it doesn't matter which one.
dwirachmat, yes it will ask for key but it accepts any key. And yes, it will say invalid but it continues to the valid part right after that. Did you replace BOTH files or just LenovoTranslateService?Comment

Re: Remove_SMM... UEFI.
Thanks, good to know!Comment

Re: Remove_SMM... UEFI.
just BootOption and your LenovoTranslateService patch. but when i fill any key and press enter, it just stuck on invalid key. not continue like when i fill correct key that someone gave to me. when correct it will be ask me to press space twice.
so maybe when it stuck on invalid key, i must shut it down and reflash with original bios right? or how?Comment
send me your BIOS dump and model

Hi, i have an ASUS PRIME Z590M-PLUS board, which had an shorted Z590 chipset. I have succesfully exchanged the chipset to a factory new one, however there is a serious problem with the Intel Management Engine (later on: ME) not beeing activated after the chipset device replacement.
For lower chipset families (on ASUS boards) it worked to program the oldest bios version into the SPI rom, and the bios had activated the Management Engine itself by default - there was a message on the screen prior booting - "BIOS is updating Management Engine ..... .

Hey guys,
Bought myself Surface Pro 4 tablet today on a local craigslist-type website.
I've seen that UEFI was password protected and of course the seller forgot the password, but decided to buy it anyway.
Really needed such a tablet to use with RomRaider to do some logging/tuning on my car.
It has secure boot turned off and boots from USB, so I've formatted SSD and have done clean win10 install.
Works fine, but wanted to ask, are there any real security risks associated with UEFI settings on Surface (remote access etc.)?
From what I've... -
Hi guys.
I am very new to this business and i have some questions. Maybe someone can help me further.
I have a 2015 Intel NUC NUC6i3SYH and for some internet and office the computer works perfectly. Lately it has been bugging me a bit on and off. Then I saw there is a UEFI update from Intel and I thought if I put it on, the problems might be gone, but unfortunately the update didn't go through. The screen stayed black and after waiting for a while nothing happened, I had to pull the plug at some point. Of course, the NUC then failed to boot!
