                [ NOTES ]
                When booting the patched BIOS you might have to:
                - Hold the anti-tamper switch down the whole time (use tape)
                - Remove the hard disk or replace it with a locked one

                          Should I buy a Lenovo Thinkpad E495 with bios password?
                          by RMDUiFT
                          Good day. I apologize if I posted this in the wrong topic. I saw somebody selling a Thinkpad E495 with a Ryzen 3500U CPU near me. In the pictures the laptop is running windows 10. I contacted the seller and asked a few questions about upgradability and if it has a bios password on it. He confirmed it has a bios password. I searched through the forum, I found a guide regarding removing the bios password using the autopatcher, I also found a thread with the e495 where people requested help with unlocking the bios password.

                          I have a few questions:
                          • If I would buy this laptop and have

                          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.
                          • I concluded that the

                          Lenovo Thinkpad X1 carbon 11th Gen BIOS problem
                          by MaxonDomkrat
                          Hi everyone.

                          I have an engineering sample of a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 11th Gen (TYPE 21HM-2FVT05, S/N PF-40G7CD) with an Intel Core i7 1360P (ES – Intel 0000). Since this is an engineering sample, the BIOS had a massive number of various settings. One day, I was experimenting with the BIOS settings and, after saving them, the laptop stopped booting and played a melody after pressing the power button, signaling error code 0002 (Internal bus error), just like in this post: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...shooting-lapto...

                          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,...
