![]() ![]() Are you aware of any resources which did read/program the firmware for an M1 in that way, or maybe for other Apple devices? I’m not 100% sure about the M1, since this is my first ever Apple product and it is a bit different than the average laptop anyways. Usually you can dump the firmware and write new one with an EEPROM programmer. There are two EEPROM chips on the board, probably for the firmware (question is why there are two …). This relates to something I wanted to ask. Worst of all is that affected iMac17,1 computers were among the most expensive Mac models at the time, but now seem to be receiving the least support. It’s disgraceful that Apple, knowing of the problem, seems to be doing its utmost to prevent users from getting it fixed. Firmware updates are an essential part of your Mac’s security, improve its stability, and ensure that your Mac works properly with recent versions of macOS. I explain some of the background in this article. If you have a consumer organisation which can provide assistance, or even a lawyer, then you may find that helps. You’ll need to persist with your cause so that it escalates until senior support staff reluctantly agree to do something about this. It has been officially reported to Apple in Feedback entry FB7644127 dated 29 March 2020 too. Of course there is, and you can read a whole series of articles and plenty of comments here (search for iMac17,1) and elsewhere.
