Acer chromebook plus 514 hardware wp problem

i have this chrombook when but i cannot get rid of hardware protection. i removed the battery and applied gsctool -a-o
and when i go through it and apply
gsctool -a-I allowunverfiredRo:always
it give me "error 7 (notallowed)

is there any way to solve this?

What is your board name?

What does “when I go through it” mean?

board name is craasento
i mean i go on

that does nothing at all for your device. Did you not bother to read the documentation first?

yes i did and i need the sozyqable which is not available in my country and also the command line gsctool -a-o does not need the cable and not working also

what does not working mean? you’re not telling us anything useful to help with whatever your problem is.

Since you don’t have a SuzyQ, you need to bridge the jumper, open the CDD, then disable RO verification.

can you help me where to bridge the jumber?

sorry I misspoke – there is no known jumper for Craasneto (or any Alderlake-N devices). SuzyQ is the only option

when i apply the command line gsctool -a-o
it never say pp done
i notice red line but so fast canot read it
and it reboot and exit the developer mode
which mean i fail before the step of using the suzy cable

If the battery is unplugged when you run gsctool -a -o it will reboot before the assert PP step.

so i have to connect the battery and get suzyq. is that right?

You definitely need a suzyq cable. As far as the battery, I think it will still work but not positive, but there’s no reason for it not to be plugged in

i will connect it and try again. but if it fails there will be no need for the suzyqable

you absolutely need the battery connected in order to unlock the CCD using gsctool, that is 100% your issue

i pluged the battery back and could install windows 11. but the touch pad not working. and bluetooth also not working the drivers on coolstar.org is not working. can you please help with this?
