Re: T2 Chip Programmer Tool
I have a T2 device that is EFI and IC locked, Is there a way to jb and ssh and bypass EFI without updating iBridgeOS. Or a hardware method to bypass EFI without updating iBridgeOS?

We've had customers send in boards/units that "locked themselves after installing an update" and turns out they bought a unit with a bypass in place and now they're stuck with a locked board/unit. Some sketchy eBay listings claiming to be selling "T2 unlock services" are just doing the quick bypass that is not a real unlock, but they're calling it an unlock. It's not.Last edited by piernov; 09-13-2022, 05:29 AM.

If I force to use the driver, it gets installed as USB-SERIAL CH341A (COM3) but the asprogrammer doesnt see the device.... If I use the CH341PAR it works but I get an error writing the chip back: "Verification error on address: 00000000:FFH | 30H" if i read the chip again it is empty.
How does the T203 appears in your device manager? I would really appreciate any help.

I have an A2289 with the old BridgeOS (5.4).

What an i doing wrong or is it not possible to do it this way anymore.

2. Read the data off of the chip, then save the data to your Desktop (windows pc only)
3. Run WinHex, change the serial MANUALLY that is on Mina that is used to unlock it. (IE: In the T203 tool data it will have the Serial plugged in the UNLOCK CODE. Just run WinHex and look for the serial and copy it and paste it. This is the serial activated for Mina.)
4. Then run the jailbreak, then turn on the computer once its jailbroken and activated, reinstall the OS, complete OS setup. Create user and password. Then shut down computer. Remove board if necessary
5. Remove the chip, read the chip via T203, copy the data from that chip on to the desktop, run WinHex and change to the original serial of the device, save the file as a .BIN then program the file to the chip. IF YOU DO NOT DO THIS the chip will be corrupted and you will have to do it all over again! That includes reinstalling the OS. (DO NOT USE THE MINA SERIAL it will run into issues).
6. Solder chip back on then turn on and verify the serial and model of your computer in ABOUT THIS MAC. Voila unlocked and working. No need to patch with DFU.

NO, it was empirically established that icloud is in T2 and not in SOC ROM! See post #301
P.S. I soldered the blocked T2 to the working board and saw the activation window. Icloud in T2 chip 150%Last edited by mich6el; 08-10-2022, 12:51 PM.

1. Everything's ok
2. See #1
3. With the unlocked T2's soc rom mac reboots when current becomes 0.9A (but still no picture). With original soc rom from the locked board current is 1.96A, no reboots, both fans are on 100% speed but Apple Configurator still can't restore the device.
4. Yep it is.
5. I have to pull the mac in DFU with a key combination on kb.
6. Yep. Battery is 100% charged and dc power supply connected.
