    15-inch Retina 2012 MacBookPro10,1 smc issue

    I would like to try to flash smc but for the Mac-C3EC7CD22292981F I have not found any payload on catalina, mojave, high sierra and el capitan.
    Does anyone have experience though is there a compatibility with others board-id?
    p.s. I found my mac board-id by terminal with command "ioreg -l | grep -i board-id".

    Tthank you

    Will I have a bricked logic board after reflow of the GPU v-core U8900 chip on my Mid-2012 15" Retina Macbook pro?
    by korben_dallas
    Hi everyone! I'm trying to fix my black screen / failed U8900 GPU v-core on my Mid-2012 Macbook Pro 15" Retinaby doing a rework/reflow of the chip (once I determine that's the real issue; but it likely is).

    I've been disabling the GPU in NVRAM for a few years... but it's just time for a better solution.

    I'm new to soldering but the only feasible way to fix this issue is to do something myself.

    MY QUESTION:
    I've been seeing some people (on this forum mostly) run into issues with the logic board needing a serial number or it being deactivated (?)...

    MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) A1398 heats up & turns off
    by mferna14
    Hi all. I am working on MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) A1398 820-3332-A. There is no liquid spill & no physical damages on the logic board. The CPU/GPU heats sink heats up a lot & then turns off automatically. I did a re-solder job on the GPU VCORE chip U8900, but this did not help much & also updated the BIOS. Added brand new coolant compound but still the same, after about 1/2 hr, it heats up & then turns off automatically. Just asking anyone will the CPU & GPU BGA balls reflow will be suitable to rectify this problem. Any tips or help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

    by Roman78
    just got a defective MBP 2012 Retina here. I resoldered the U8900 and it is working again, but now the Serial Number is missing. I downloaded several Blank Board Serializer from different sources and restored those on a USB-Stick. But non is working, all giving following error:

    Error: 8000000000000003, Cannot load 'EFI/Drivers/TestSupport.efi'
    Status: 0x00000003

    On here : https://de.ifixit.com/Antworten/Anse...+Hardware+Test i found it has something to do whit the newer Firmware.

    Now i need a newer...

    Mac Air A1466 2012 cpu 300%
    by smic717394
    Hi,

    I bought a mac air 2012 very cheap, because the customer didn't want to fix. After reflowing the ram chips the laptop works fine, I tested the ram and no error. But The fan goes at max speed after few seconds. Running the Apple diagnostic finds an error 4SNS/1/C0000008: Th1H--124. and the cpu usage is like 300%, After disconnecting the webcam cable that on the 2012 model is on the IO board, the laptop, the laptop runs fine, and running the apple diagnostic finds no errors. So the problem is related with the webcam, but I suspect the problem is no the webcam but the light sensor....
