Hello, I am reading through the instructions on disabling write protect on my Chromebook, and I had a few clarification questions. These are the instructions I am trying to understand:
For devices which use a jumper pair for WP, a connection must be made between the two parts.
- Power off the device (and disconnect external power)
- Open up the device
- Disconnect the internal battery connector
- Locate the WP jumper
- If the jumper holes are open, you can sometimes use a paperclip to connect them
- If the jumper holes are filled, the easiest way to connect them is using a solder bridge
- In a pinch, you may be able to connect them using a standard graphite pencil
- Reconnect the internal battery connector
- Reassemble and boot the device
- I can either connect the jumper pairs, OR use a suzyQable, I don’t have to do both right?
- At what point do I get rid of the connection? Do I just connect it for a few seconds with the battery off, do I leave the connection in when I plug the battery back in? I don’t have to leave the connection in permanently right?
Thank you, hopefully these aren’t very dumb questions
