    Sometimes after patching the original unpatched bios won`t work unless the ME firmware is cleaned,and/or the bios region is replaced with one from the bios update from lenovo support.Post the second bios bios chip (this model has 2 chips),it is needed for the ME firmware to be cleaned as both backups need joining together before FIT (flash Image Toolkit) will work. Post the laptop serial number !

    Maybe you lost a resistor,broke a trace or something

        Most likely Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Yoga 4th (20QG) can not be patched as this is a 32MB BIOS, which most of the times contains a BACKUP of the BIOS and the actual "WORKING" BIOS.

        In this case the BIOS Region contains 26 Volumes, these are a few of the copies found (VolBackupBIOS:VolWorkingBIOS): 2:6, 3:7, 9:16, 10:14, 11:15, 12:13, 17:22, 18:23, 19:24, 20:25, 21:26.

        The "black screen and power button flashing" that you get is because both copies of the BIOS are being patched. If only the "working" BIOS is patched, then the ThinkPad executes the "Self-Healing" code, which copies the backup BIOS onto the "working" BIOS. If this protection could be disabled then the patch would work.
        For the moment the only option is to use an EC/KBC programmer.
        Has there been any update on this model, would it be meaningful at this moment to give it a try. Or is it still not supported with this patch?

          Hello, I DIY'ed my friend's Lenovo T470s 20JT, after backing up the original bios I tried the autopatcher but It didn't work and no patched bin file is created so I tried my luck on downloading the shared default bin and luckily it worked. after injecting dxe drivers I have successfully removed the password but the laptop automatically shuts off after 5-10 mins and there is 5 blinks on power led. Any idea what have I done wrong?? Please help. Thank you.

                    Try.
                    If you can't, run autopatcher on the BIOS dump and it will output the name and GUID of the patched location, so it may work if you use UEFITool to manually apply the patch to the original dump based on that.
                    It may also work if you rewrite the MERegion and GbE Region of the distributed patched file with those of your own dump​

                                      I hope this works. Thanks for the hard work. I was looking for a way to remove bios password for a time now on my thinkpad a475. I'll try this method when I have time.

                                          ASUS TP500LA BIOS request/repair/merge?
                                          by jbonavita
                                          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...

                                          [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,...

                                          Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request

                                          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...
