    Macbook Unlock Bios help

    Hi good people of badcaps,

    i would like to learn how to unlock Macbook Efi. I watched a tutorial on youtube, but still there are some things i am not sure about.

    I have a board from Macbook Air 820-00165-a with 8gb ram. Does ram and proc. determine which dump efi should i use? I found one clean one on the web, that one is on the picture where serial starts with C02... , mine board starts with C1MR...

    I replace the serial number on the clean one that i found on the web and it should work or is there something else that must be done?

    Thanks

        imranromi, i tried this bios, but it is locked as original. I tried to reset PRAM, but as i see it can not be reseted, until bios lock is on.

              [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
              by zenius
              Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

              Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

              🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
              by macabook
              Hello everyone,

              I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
              đź§© Initial Issue
              • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
              • External display (HDMI) shows
              ...

              Hi sirs. please help
              Dell Inspiron 5775 bios locked "Unlock Setup fail"

              ​
              After generating the Password Recovery code, I go to the “Security” tab - “Locked Settings” - it says “Unlock Settings? I tried many wrong passwords and it shows an error to unlock settings [ Press any key ].
              What I did:
              I read the bios dump.
              Downloaded the bios update to 1.6.0 from the official Dell website, extracted the dump from it, updated the bios, but the problem persisted. Please help me to solve the problem....
