Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal
Hello, the autopatcher only works on 4th to 8th generation Lenovo notebooks. Everything after that doesn't work.
Your notebook is 9 generation.Comment

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal
Hi. Can anyone help me with this?
Right after patching the file and the command terminal disappears the Patched file just deletes itself.
Can someone patch it for me or find the password on this bin file?
I will really appreciate it, please.Last edited by SMDFlea; 03-25-2023, 11:57 AM.Comment

Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal
Problem: Lenovo x250 that only beeps on startup after autopatcher.
Winbond flash chip "W25Q128.V" (16384 kB, SPI) on ch341a_spi
This is my first time so be gentle...
I studied this thread and other resources very carefully but I must have missed something. I wonder if it was because I did it on M1 mac? Other than that I have no idea. Please help this poor computer come back to life 🙏
Method
Patch the dump
1. read BIOS chip -- Flashrom compiled on M1 mac
2. create dump file
3. do it again 2-3 times
4. compare
1. diff 1.bin 2.bin
5. Patch the dump (used python 3.10 on M1 mac using Parallels)
autopatch file_you_want_to_patch.bin
Flash and Restore the BIOS
1. Flash and replace current BIOS with the generated patch file-- tried renaming to 1.bin-- tried using a patched BIOS from this thread — https://www.badcaps.net/forum/attach...4&d=1604423061
2. Disconnect HD
3. tape down anti-tamper switch
4. hold BIOS button and Boot the machine — machine won't boot with button pressed, had to press it afterward
Result: GETTING ONLY BEEPS for my trouble
————— couldn't go further ———————
5. press enter for BIOS settings
6. Enter any character when asked for Supervisor Password
7. Press enter when it shows Hardware ID
8. Press space bar 2x when asked
9. Turn off machine
10. Restore original BIOS
11. Reset BIOS settings to factory default
**Original dump old1.bin attached
**Patched file 1.bin attached as well

Hi, my laptop wont boot at all
With original bios no POST, only LED lights
With alternative BIOS from model TP500LN (flashed via programmer) the notebook works again
Some issues
A- with bios from 500LN, it won't update from bios of model 500LA (from 500LN v203 to 500LA v300)
B- If updated from 500LN version 203 to 300, the battery stops being recognized
Things I tried
1- Update / clear ME: Took the non working bios, made a backup, and did this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...theory/trouble... -
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,... -
Hello,
I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
So I thought it was a Bios problem.
I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V.... -
Hi everyone,
I have been doing hardware repair as a hobby for some years now and recently decided to learn about repairing laptops as a fun challenge.
I managed to get my hands on a "HP Pavilion Gaming 15-ec2523nd" notebook that only shows a white power LED and doesnt respond to anything.
After initial testing I concluded the bios seems to be corrupted since all voltages are normal and there are no shorts. HP has a feature for a bios restore from USB with winkey+B for this model. This did not work.
I have desoldered the bios chip (GigaDevice...
