    What happened was that one poster started in on Stephen and Piernov deleted the whole thread because he felt there was too much "drama" from memory. It's a real shame that we lost all that information I have to say. Very disappointing

        I only took the decision to close the thread. It was deleted on OP's request.
        It was a complete mess anyway. If you want to share actually useful and correct information, please do so, that's what everyone is here for.
        But as I said already, if you have nothing to share then don't. There's already way too much noise and misinformation out there, and we do not need any fake promises and even less of baiting people into commercial affairs.

          Any clues on doing that please for the thread in question? Not my strong point but Wayback machine has none at all for 2022. Thanks

          Fair enough, thanks Piernov

            Try a google search for 'badcaps t2 unlocking method', chose the 3 vertical dots and select 'Cached'.

              Thanks so much, I wasn't aware of that method. Now I just have to work out how to access all 32 pages. Using that method the only two that I can access are pgs 28 and 31.

                Yes I requested it removed. My method worked and I had the admin remove it due to some VERY bad apples harassing our shop and contacting our shop to get guidance on how to do the unlock. After that I wanted it gone.

                      Just posting my first success using this method.
                      I've used a SkyPro programmer with a 1.8v adapter.
                      Thanks for everyone on here for making this doable.

                            You don't need the t203 tool, just ability to program a flash chip.
                            You must have old bridgeos as per Andrew's guide.
                            Check the screen on recovery to see which version you have and compare to the screenshots in this thread.

This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

                                            There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

                                            Lenovo T490 - motherboard serial - windows licence lost - after corrupt bios chip replacement
                                            by baletak
                                            Hi,
                                            had T490 with faulty bios chip. Bought chip out of ebay and soldered on. Laptop starts and works however serial numbers of laptop and motherboard do not match.
                                            I have updated laptop model number.

                                            1) I did not find the way to update laptop serial number - I have this one.
                                            2) I dont know where to get my motherboard serial number and how to update it. Is it somewhere physically on the mainboard? How do I update it?

                                            Hope to find someone to help me with this as I am hitting dead end at the moment.

                                            Many thanks

                                            Miro

                                            How to add chip support to NeoProgrammer software for the CH341A Programmer
                                            by SMDFlea
                                            Adding chip support is quite easy,there`s even some instructions included with NeoProgrammer,although its not obvious where they are
                                            and once you do find them there`s a few crucial steps missing.

                                            Extract chiplist.zip to a folder,the instructions are in Import_EN.txt and in Import.xml .Its the xml file where we add the new chip.



                                            Open Import.xml with notepad or any other text editor.In this example i`m adding a Macronix MX77L25650F SPI_NOR chip.



                                            After adding the chip save the xml file and copy it to the root directory of the...

                                            ----------------------------------------------------------

                                            Q: I have a bios request,i can`t post my backup as i can`t read from the chip.

                                            A: If you can`t read from it how do you expect to write to it ?.

                                            Q: Why is my bios chip unreadable ?.

                                            A: The programmer is faulty or has a worn or broken zif socket.

                                            The USB cable is frayed,connector pins worn or some other physical damage.

                                            Not enough amperage or voltage to power the programmer properly.

                                            Asus Chromebox CN62 - wrong chip put on BIOS reader
                                            by BMCappelletti
                                            Long story short:
                                            - dad converted Asus Chromebox CN62 into Windows compatible, with mrchromebox BIOS, years and years ago
                                            - gave the computer to his son a couple years later
                                            - son now decided to revert it to Chrome OS, to sell it as original (re-writing BIOS with the backup one created by his dad)
                                            - too lazy to remove the board from the case, thought a voltage regulator was the BIOS chip (you know... it has 8 legs)
                                            (seems like the story was not that short)

                                            He used alligator clips to read the chip. No luck reading it. Removed chip and placed on a SOC-8...
