Re: LENOVO BIOS AUTO-PATCHER for Supervisor Password Removal
Successfully patched my X1 Yoga 1st Gen.
All went as planned for the exception of the patch boot which after pressing F1, stated it was going to setup, got some beeps, time error, then it went back to the Lenovo screen and hung.
Turned it off and on again and all went as planned.
Final boot after reflashing my original file took me straight to the BIOS after pressing F1.
Awesome!
Thank you!

Re: ThinkPad X1 Yoga 1st Gen (Type 20FR) BIOS needed
Okay I believe I need to dump my locked file and attach it here and you fine people will mod it for me? Don't want to pull it till I have a solid plan.
Oh, I probably should have mentioned that when it was together, I could still get into Windows, the whole thing isn't locked, just the bios.Last edited by opensourcefan; 11-19-2022, 06:43 PM.

Lenovo X1 Yoga 1st Gen (model - 20FQ) with a locked BIOS
Hey all, I have a Lenovo X1 Yoga 1st Gen (model - 20FQ) with a locked BIOS. I would like to unlock it.
Currently I have it apart in all its glorious bits looking for the security eeprom that I can't find. Plan was to jump it. Next step I think is to pull the BIOS IC and flash a decryption file to it?? I'm a bit confused on that process.
1. Pull the BIOS IC,
2. Read and save the original locked file
3. Flash the decryption file
4. Install and boot up and remove password from BIOS
5. Remove BIOS IC again
6. Flash Original locked...
