      Hi bro ,
      Can you tell me what is that Black cable staying above the PCB board near the GND writing? or it was just accidentally put there?

      I have the same parts (received with RT809H) that I want to try with RT809H and KBC to remove the password from Lenovo Thinkpad T14 Gen1 model

      Also can you tell us the position of the R/W resistor on this model of laptop?

      THanks

But I persistently come to inform you that the (Thinkpad T14 1st 20S1) was unlocked by an RT809H the only programmer I have. Here are photos in the attachment, now all that remains is to reverse the bios information, but I had taken a photo first of all.
          Can you send JTAG pinouts please or can I use KBC connector? I have RT809H and want to try it...


          My motherboard is this in picture, anybody know pinouts for JTAG or can I use KBC connector with RT809H?

          Laptop model is T14 GEN1 with Ryzen processor


          Thanks

              Yes , sorry, but I saw that my board doesn't fit in coolshrimps tutorial as it has MEC chips, but this board of mine has ITE chips and seems that it can be done via KBC connector only, and the R/W resistor which I am not knowing the position of that resistor.

                I don`t think you have to move any resistors for the ITE chip, don`t know for sure never worked on one of these.

                  no resistors for ite are needed

                  Just make sure you line up cable properly

                  Sorry forgot to add all done with vertyanov.

                    Re: ThinkPad T14 Supervisor password

                    Will have to look in the RT809H forums as there I see that even RT809 can write these EC or chips or what are these, otherwise I don't believe that just SVOD or Vertyanov can handle these chips and RT809H no.

                    But the worst thing is that the forums are in Chinese and I am not managing to even register on there, but I am just translating the sites with Google....

                      So just to sum it up and be sure that I've totally understood how these new models are built/working regarding the supervisor password removal :

                      After reading/writing MEC16xx chip with a blank/empty dump, there are some things that needs to be reconfigured.

                      Technically, from my understanding, MEC16xx chip contains these informations (nothing else to declare ?) :
                      • Machine type
                      • Model Type
                      • Country code
                      • S/N / Serial Number
                      • BIOS/Supervisor password
                      • Computrace informations maybe ?


                      While using the Lenovo HMD (Hardware Maintenance Diskette) v1.90, there are ways to fulfill these informations using option 20 or C0 and typing this sequency : 1STTTTMMMMCCSSSSSSSS which is composed of :
                      • TTTT > Machine type
                      • MMMM > Model Type
                      • CC > Country code
                      • SSSSSSSS > S/N / Serial Number


                      So chronologically, steps would be :
                      1. Solder wires on JTAG pins (close to the MEC16xx chip on the motherboard)
                      2. Write an free from password dump of a MEC16xx chip
                      3. Boot on the Lenovo HMD (hopefully no BIOS errors will be preventing from booting on an USB stick at that time)
                      4. Use the option "20" or "C0" to fulfill the informations into the MEC16xx chip memory
                      5. That's it ?


                      Am I correct ?
                      Question Simkard ---> If the serial number and/or the model type &/or machine type are in the ballpark (i.e. from a T-14 Gen 1) but not the exact one for the machine being fixed, what happens then? Would it affect things like the proper functioning of the power button for example?? I have a case where a T-14S Gen1 machine is functioning properly in every way after a Supervisor Password delete utilizing a Vertyanov Successor programmer but the serial number, model number and machine type numbers are wrong. The physical power button does not work. Also, the shutdown function in W10 Pro does not work but sleep does as well as restart. I am able to use the Microsoft Update function (was able to load and update W10 pro through various update iterations no problem) so that means the machine does completely shutdown but doesn't remain shut. I have already removed Fast Restart from Windows. Can you provide any help whether tinkering with the EC has somehow now disabled the power button?

                          This is the wrong thread. You have to look up MEC1663 JTAG Pinout in search.

                            Hello guys
                            There some informations about lenovo thinkpad new generation laptop
                            ​​​​​​I1st option is usual jtag
                            2nd one is that you can modify bios bin in certain lines addresses and those modifications can delete the password
                            I found this on the internet maybe it's possible maybe it's not
                            If someone Can confirm that

                              Modifying the bios is only possible on old models. This topic is for the T14 which requires MEC1663 JTAG and a programmer compatible with it

                                    Someone wrote here that patching was not doable on 32MB BIOS chip.
                                    I have a T14 gen 1, but it has a 16MB BIOS. Any chance?
                                    I see some people that after trying the patch only got black screen. I don't want to risk, as the machine is usable. Although I could write the original file later if that happens.

                                      Hi! I am excited to learn about these chips. Can someone tell me if one of these chips is the embedded controller with the supervisor password stored on it?

                                      This is on a NM-C801 motherboard from a T14 Gen 1 w/AMD Ryzen 7.

                                      Thank you!

                                          Hello, I have Lenovo Thinkpad T14s GEN 4 serial number GM-0FK2ER laptop. It was brought to me by a customer to reinstall windows. The problem is it is locked with a superviser password. Can anyone please give instructions on how to reset the bios or bypass the supervisor password? Thank you.

                                          by badzymandiaz
                                          I have a laptop that was purchased second-hand, and I am able to boot Windows on and extract the BIOS dump (ONLY the BIOS region, I was unable to dump anything else due to an FCERR I received trying to dump the other regions) and use normally. However, because the BIOS is locked with a supervisor password, I am unable to use anything else except for Windows, and it has also disabled some hardware features of the laptop itself, such as the fingerprinting module, etc. that I really do wish to use.

                                          I have been digging around for nearly 2 weeks trying to find any mention of the same model...

                                          Hi all, I'm new here, a few words about myself: CS student, interested in hardware stuff too - tinkering my whole life but with practically no experience when it comes to firmware "hacking".

                                          So I have this X380 Yoga with a supervisor password in place and before doing anything stupid I figured I'd rather ask.
                                          I plan on using the tool from this thread: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...password-remov...

                                          Hey guys,

                                          have a laptop here that has a supervisor Password (dump in Attachements).
                                          Before i write the Serial NR.etc i wanted to say that strangely after flashing with 3 different Bios dumps and one from lenovos site
                                          the laptop works but everytime it wants me to type a supervisor password i never set.
                                          I thought the supervisor password is stuck in the ec bios but no it isn't either because after replacing the ec chip from one of another board it still has the supervisor password.
                                          Anyway i wanted to ask what of the two chips is the ec bios because on the left...
