This dump is jacked up, it has very few signatures of Apple EFI firmware. The it doesn't even start off with the correct Intel signatures or firmware volumes. I think this is a very corrupt dump, one that has been heavily modified by someone with much more knowledge than myself, or it is not even Apple EFI firmware. You need to give me the backstory on this firmware. Does it work on the mac you pulled it from? Where did you get the Mac from and is it refurbished. If so who did you buy it from? Can you re-dump the firmware saving it to a .bin and not .txt this time. What is your setup like etc...... It would also help to know what your serial number is.

All that being said, i did find some interesting things. I wanna touch base on offset:

This looks like the device identifier that can be found by hitting Control-Option-Command-Shift-S at boot. The first 17 characters should be the device ID and the whole thing is submitted to an Apple tech who will use it to get an SCBO file that will update the firmware removing the EFI password. I am not convinced this is an actual dump, it is likely an SCBO either gotten directly from Apple or re-engineered.

In my opinion the new models are very difficult to amend and to decrypt the serial number I looked on my computer in fact it was model 2014

We have done many different models including 2015. There has not been a difference thus far, unless yours has a TPM that we don't know about. (Not Likely) Can you please answer some of the questions i have asked you before?

Hey guys, I'm having a similar problem with my macbook air 1466 2013-2014

during the ASD EFI/OS tests it kept supplying this error

"No override file detected. Please Flash before running diagnostics"

The computer otherwise is 100% functional but we want to be able to supply the serial number for our customer.

After dumping the bin and investigating I was not able to find the text "override-version" which confirms that the EFI is missing the override file.

How should I proceed ?

I was thinking my first option could be to replace the firmware with a clean dump, but im not sure if thats necessary. Would it be possible to simply replace the region dedicated to this file with the correct hex?
