Hello everyone,
I'm new in the hex editing.
I bought an UNOWHY Y13
model: Y13G010S4EI
sn: IFP045001537
bios version: V0.5.0_P1S0M2E0F3L6B0T0P2G00A0U0D601_ENE
motherboard model: MG133(EM_IG116_366B_ENE_V2.0)
bios date: 10/28/2020
Motherboard : EM_IG116_200b_ene_F_V1.0.
Initially the USB ports weren't functional. I've managed to install the USB 3.0, but the other USB port (2.0) still shows Port reset Failure. So, after loaded Factory Settings in UEFI BIOS it request password after reboot.
So I've tried the passwords founded on different sites (for 2020 - F8Hv4U3T67 and other 7 passwords for 2021 models) but none worked.
So, I have no choice but edit the BIOS file and re-write it to chip. The problem is that I have not ant tools to do that and the last chance is to ask specialists from BAD CAPS to help me reading the BIOS file and to extract the needed password.

Thank you in advance and hopefully you'll get the time to help me !

Hi,

My name is Rob and I am a volunteer at several Repair Cafes in the UK.

I joined them because, for several years, I wanted to help people by repairing things but I couldn't come up with a business plan that I was happy with. That was until someone mentioned Repair Cafes. It ticked all the boxes. The charity status and reception staff set expectations so that I can concentrate on fixing things and bringing delight to people's faces.

By trade, I am trained electronics designer who later specialised in software development.

Great to be part of this community and look forward to getting to know people.
Rob
