Re: ThinkPad T14 Supervisor password
After a lot of persistence I was able to remove the bios password from T14! I believe that few here know how to do it and no one shares it, I understand that certain types of information are not shared and are sold! 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.Comment

Re: ThinkPad T14 Supervisor password
rt809h + read MEC1663 + write MEC1663 after that you will have to fix the bios information.Comment

Re: ThinkPad T14 Supervisor password
When you say "fix the bios information", I think you mean the fact of having the "model type", "serial number", etc ... being wiped out when the MEC firmware is modified ?
That might be a concern as there might be a lot of informations to fulfill to get the system at the same exact status as it was before.
Should tool "Lenovo Maintenance Utility V2.02" might be of great help in the process ?
Does it allow to read AND write the informations ?

Re: ThinkPad T14 Supervisor password
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 :- Solder wires on JTAG pins (close to the MEC16xx chip on the motherboard)
- Write an free from password dump of a MEC16xx chip
- Boot on the Lenovo HMD (hopefully no BIOS errors will be preventing from booting on an USB stick at that time)
- Use the option "20" or "C0" to fulfill the informations into the MEC16xx chip memory
- That's it ?
Am I correct ?Comment

by Badpatch02Hi 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...-
