Hello!
I run a dell rugged extreme as my main computer, and have linux installed. All is well! However, after plugging in a friends power adapter to test it (it turned out to be broken), my USB-C port has stopped working. This isn't the end of the world, since I can still charge with a good old-fashoned 19V barrel power, but I'd like to fix it.

The port shows up to the operating system, but does not provide power to devices plugged into it, nor can it receive power. I have tried cleaning it.

I strongly suspect that the physical port itself is damaged, and would...

It is working but the screen looks like the backlight isn't working on the display but my friend had tried an entire replacement assembly and it didn't seem to work after replacing the display, so he returned it assuming that the original display should still be in working condition as it was before it suddenly "died" on him - some things happened with the computer but nothing that should have damaged the display components physically... I really wish I had a little better understanding of what voltages/resistances I should be testing for and where to start looking first but I don't...

Re: Dell Latitude 5420 Bios Password 8FC8


According to the service tag in your dump it's a Dell Latitude 5420 Rugged.
Latitude 5420 Rugged, Latitude 5424 Rugged and Latitude 7424 Rugged Extreme share the same bios but not Dell Latitude 5420, meaning you are offtopic here, and you must find existing thread for your machine, or open a new one if there's no such. I'll remove attached bios in your post as offtopic.

....

Hello friends,
I found myself at another dead-end, or with your help perhaps just a stumbling block.

I'm trying to figure out if the password is indeed stored in the BIOS dump file as it was last time I encountered a newer dell, which someone so kindly assisted me with and even pointed out where it was stored in the dump. What I didn't find out however was how they (Dell) chose to obfuscate the password so it isn't just cleartext sitting out for anyone to find given enough time and how to reverse the process. It seems like the dump from before is structured differently than...

Re: Request: Dell Latitude 7424 Rugged Extreme



awesome, thanks that worked out. Looks like it put me in manufacturing mode and enabled a suffix for me to generate a password @ bios-pw.org using my service tag.

Not sure how exactly you did that but I would love to learn if you are willing to share your knowledge. Just comparing them in a hex editor didn't exactly show me much other than what was different, I'm still lacking the most critical parts, why there, and why those changes?

Regardless, thanks so much for the assist.

It confuses everyone so don`t worry....

If anyone knows where I might locate this I would be eternally grateful, I seem to be coming up dry.
Thx in advance.

ahhh, right. I suppose that's the one then, I feel stupid now. thanks

Re: Schematic/Boardview Request: Dell Latitude 7424 Rugged Extreme

The extracted update is 8,572KB ,its only a bios update not a full image

128 mega bits is 16MB mega bytes

Re: Schematic/Boardview Request: Dell Latitude 7424 Rugged Extreme



honestly, was just trying to identify the bios chip as there seems to be multiple possibilities but I haven't really been able to pinpoint the chip I'm looking for yet.

When I unpacked the .exe file from dell with the bios file it returned a 16mb file, yet the only bios dump I found online was for a 8mb chip... which I most likely found the 8mb SOIC-8 chip it likely matches up with.. but that's not the 16mb file size I was expecting when looking for something to fit the bios file found...
