Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

This is the patched file using python27.

Could you help me try patching it using your setup? T460.bin is the original file.

your file t460 patched 32 mo
my ori t460 patched 16mo


very weird
I don't understand why your file is 32mb while mine of the same model (t460) is only 16mb

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

Oh wait, you mean you tried to patch my original file, but it is showing 32mb too right.

Mmmmm.... I tried to patch using manual replacement of "lenovotranslate" and "bootoption", my machine can power on, but there is no display.

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

yes if I patch your file, it is 32mb.
and if I take one of mine it is 16mb.
you can try my patch file for your machine that should unlock the Password.

there is something else to modify than boot and translate for this model.
nvram must also be cleaned up

Thanks for enlightenment

How do I go about clearing the nvram?

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

Also other than clearing the nvram, what else do I need to do?

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

you have to compare the files to find out how to patch them.
all the keys are in the patch

If not too tough, can you guide me? If it is a cumbersome process then forget it. Appreciate ur reply

[Maxpower3]

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

the explanation is in the discussion thread.
look at message # 19 and in other topics like Remove_SMM ... UEFI.

The best learning is to learn and understand on your own

read the topics and come back if you don't understand

thank you maxpower and knucklegrumble

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

OK... I found the reason why your file was doubling in size.

I rewrote the cleaning step of the script and modified the process. It should work as intended now.

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal

Hi Knucklegrumble,

It worked on the old laptop, but I tried on another laptop, also T460, and it couldnt work again

I manually patched it already.

However, if you are interested, I have attached the bios dump of the new laptop.

That being said, really appreciate your automated file! It really saves alot of time and effort

If I could have the script press the button for you I would... There are limits to what technology can do for now...
