Thank You a lot!,I bougth a 2nd hand T480 with SV Pass, i really need to reset all settings and turn off antithrief service. your video helped me a lot. By the way, it's way better and secure using soldered bios than clamp. when you patch the bios file no need CMD, only drag the bios file to the patcher python app. gretings from Mexico Amigo
I used Asprogrammer first and it failed at erase(with nearest chip) and I bricked my bios. When connected back no life. Because the programmer still detected the chip it was not cooked (you can right it million times) - then I used Neo programmer to detect it, as long it can detect the chip it will able to erase, right and verify. T470s is all working!
It is working nice on T470S. But i noticed a few detils. 1-motherboard on T470s has 8 gb ddr4 mounted on it and if we taking out non-fixed module, we can test without it. 2-python must be version above 3 and installed with checked "path..." 3-it would be good if bios.bin file be placed in the same folder as autopatcher.exe file. 4-when we programmed bios chip with pached file, first run of laptop maybe will late. It will be start emidietly when you connect source of power (charger or battery). Be patient and dont panic. Several times it will restart himself.
But can i try not using any hard disk and it will work because i did not have an extra hard disk or i should just use the one on it and format it after removing the password @@aoeaster
Dear, if i just replace the drive with one that have already installed windows 11, can i just restart the pc and use it and it will work or i still need the bios password when i turn the laptop pc on ?
Hey, I am about to follow your tutorial to the letter and therefore buy the USB BIOS Programmer. My T480 has a W25Q128JVSQ chip and on Amazon there are many USB BIOS Programmer models that are not indicated as compatible to work on this Winbond chip model (at least it is not listed)... should I try anyway or should I find another compatible USB module ?
can you help me understand how to do it for Ubuntu Desktop - I am new to linux and see your instructions are mostly windows so I just need a boost in getting the programs success installed on linux
Would you happen to have a bios file for t470 and thunderbolt bios type 20jn I did backups but they both seem corrupt the machine now does not post. the power button lights for 1 second and then nothing, the fan spins off and on a few times then stop
@@stone-t3r greetings: i just successfully used autopatcher - i had the same issue as mentioned - Asprogrammer never could find the bios. I needed to use the neopatcher programmer to identify the winbond (w25q128jvsq 1832). i flashed using the ch341a flasher. getting the clip on the bios chip takes practice... be patient! make sure you have at least two bios backups and that you have confirmed the hash as demonstrated in this video. Thanks so much @aoeaster
Hello when i tried flashing it i mistakenly wipe the bios please i dont know if i can get the bin file from you or anyone here. Lenovo T480 bin file 😢😢😢
When running the servitude command which end with mds to check if the two files produce the same ach value I brings out error but if I did not put mds at the end of the code it show that they have the same value
Where did you buy this from, I see alot of them on amazon and have heard about ones that are not made very well. do you have a link to the one you used in the video? Im going to try this with a Thinkpad x390 20Q1. Once I get the dump file of the bios I'm going to look for the password in there ( ua-cam.com/video/IhRw7ePhLKs/v-deo.html ) to prevent bricking my bios and avoiding too many R/W cycles on the EEPROM and bricking it that way. I'll let you know in about a week if it went well or not!

on GOOGLE you can find specifications of that chip. Default voltage is 3.3, bu nowdays bios chips are working and on 1.8V. This programmer /i think/ are working only on 3.3.
Worked for thinkpad t470s! Didn't have to replace the ssd for this particular model, all you have to do is remove it for the whole process.

Worked Here! Thanks from Brazil. Thinkpad T480 (i5 8th) saved me ..
You're welcome!
Thank you for making this detailed video guide!
This video helped me unlock my T460s!
Thank you so much!
I'm glad it helped.
This was Awesome! great video tkz
thank you very much, please tell me if this method can be used for Lenovo T460
Yes, It should work for T460
i do not get this issue, but thank you so much for upload usefull video like this, keep it up man

Thank you ao mich for the video. I have a Thinkpad P52 that needs to be unlocked. I suppose this method should work on this machine as well?
There is no harm in trying it out. I hope it works for you.
Valeu por compartilhar o seu conhecimento. Aqui funcionou!!
A lot of thanks for your video and share it with us.
Thank you the password was enter.. thank you....
I'm glad it helped!
What was the company that had dominion over the os?
Thanks for this info! You saved me!
I'm glad it helped
I assume the same methode also applies to T480s Model right? I recently bought one and might need to follow your guide step by step. Great tutorial!
Thanks!
I got 480s too
Any news?
Yes, the same method applies.
Is installing a blank hard disk necessary or I can just disconnect the hard disk with OS and it will work?
It's necessary since the laptop boots to Windows automatically without it.
But can i try not using any hard disk and it will work because i did not have an extra hard disk or i should just use the one on it and format it after removing the password @@aoeaster
Yes, it would still work without a hard disk installed.
great video. Excuse me, can I remove the supervisor password from a x1 carbon 8 gen with this MX25L8006E chip?
I haven't seen it done on a X1 Carbon 8th Gen, but I guess it would be worth trying.
One question, when you are compiling epramer, do you remove the board stack or keep it?
The board remains intact during the process.
@@aoeaster thx
T580
I would like to try this procedure on my T580 . I cant seem to find the bios chip. Is it on de bottom side or under the keyboard. Please help
Can I use EZP USB high speed programmer instead of CH341A
As long as it is able to successfully read and write to your chip, it should work just fine.
Will this work on T470s?
I don't have a T470 lying around, but there's no harm in trying it out.
Hi, just wanna ask if I can use a smartphone to perform this bios flashing? I have ch341a tool
I haven't tried it with a smartphone, but you could. It might work.
@@aoeaster I guess I would not 😂. I might fuck up my laptop. I'll try to borrow another pc. Thanks for the tutorial btw 💯
Dear, if i just replace the drive with one that have already installed windows 11, can i just restart the pc and use it and it will work or i still need the bios password when i turn the laptop pc on ?
It will work, but it might be slow and will have restrictions.
Is this method working on Lenovo x1 carbon gen 6 laptop?
I haven't tried it yet

You can go ahead and buy it. I believe it will work well so long as you are using asprogrammer for reading and writing to the chip.
Nice thank you ! So i will try it.
About the ssd, can I choose any model?@@aoeaster
@@aoeaster thank you ! For the new SSD I want to install, does the model matter ?
@@kFjuL The model doesn't matter.
@@aoeaster Thanks again. Let's get to work!
can you help me understand how to do it for Ubuntu Desktop - I am new to linux and see your instructions are mostly windows so I just need a boost in getting the programs success installed on linux
Will this work with the WINBOND BIOS chip?
Probably
so your saying there isn't any backdoor password to get it off the computer?
Would you happen to have a bios file for t470 and thunderbolt bios type 20jn I did backups but they both seem corrupt the machine now does not post. the power button lights for 1 second and then nothing, the fan spins off and on a few times then stop
I currently don't have a BIOS for T470
@@aoeaster ok thank anyway!! The video was very helpful
bro, it will be working with x13 gen4>?
I haven't tried it yet.
Can you please do same to Lenovo T14 gen 1 i5 model? Using the same programmer
I haven't tried it yet, so I can't say.
@@aoeaster please do. Help a brother out
no, is not working on that model. On forum badcaps you can read a procedure for that model
Would this work for the t490s?
I haven't tried it, but it's worth trying.
Yes
When i flashing mistakely i wipe the bios when i try different one from forums it's just looping without display can someone help me is lenovo p51
THANK YOU!!!!!!
hi, shows bin corrupted
D:\a.BIN is corrupted or does not contain a valid dump.
There was an error... Aborting.
At what step are you getting this error?

Read the chip again with NeoProgrammer.
when i click on detect chip, asprogrammer was not responding, I waited for a long time but nothing happened, how can I fix that
Try adjusting the clip of the CH341 BIOS Programmer or running the program as Administrator
why dont you short out the pins of the chip and boot the PC like in the other videos
Don't work!
Hi, how remove password supervisor in lenovo e14 gen 2 ?
I won't mind looking into it if I come across one
i get error that says that certutil unknown arg -hasfile
do u have a solution?
There might be an error in the command typed. Check and verify the command, including the cases (lower and upper cases). Hope that helps.
Bro I press detect and it succeed but I can't find my bios chip version. Is there any other way?
You can take a look at your chip with either a magnifying glass or your phone camera zoomed in.
@@aoeaster i already saw it but it's not on the choices. Can i choose a different ic version?
@@ylleknai9830 Pode escolher qualquer um que apareça na lista. Comigo foi a mesma coisa.
Will this work on lenovo E560?
I'm not certain. You can try it out.

why not show the working ones first😂
Just a chronological order of the steps taken 😊
@@aoeaster I appreciated that! Very fun watch
What was the voltage used on the bios chip I want to make sure I don’t fry mine
I went with the default voltage. It's the voltage supplied by the USB port on the laptop.
on GOOGLE you can find specifications of that chip. Default voltage is 3.3, bu nowdays bios chips are working and on 1.8V. This programmer /i think/ are working only on 3.3.
