MacBook Pro DELIBERATELY bricked with random, forgotten firmware pwd
This 15" MacBook Pro mid-2014 was DELIBERATELY bricked by my son's disgruntled girlfriend putting a random, and forgotten, BIOS password on it. We don't have proof of purchase and cannot get it. Are there any other fixes? I've heard that there's a hardware fix?

Shut down your mac. Now power up your Mac and immediately start holding the Command and R keys. Do you see anything on the screen?

Yes, I see the firmware password prompt. That's the problem.

@vwalton Have you tried putting in your user password at the prompt?
