[Solved] InsydeH20 bios name for recovery on Lenovo Flex 4-1480 (Kaby Lake)

$

I recently tried flashing an older bios on my laptop but it ended up bricking the machine. I've followed all the steps on the InsydeH20 bios recovery page, but I am unable to find the recovery filename. PhoenixTools for InsydeH20 doesn't tell me what the recovery name should be, and the platform.ini isn't helpful either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unlocking Aptio on Samsung notebook.

Hello,

I tried to unlock the BIOS in my notebook, but I'm stuck on "change the bits in hexeditor" part of the fun.

What I did:

-Read BIOS with AFUWINGUI 3.07 -> backup.rom
-Opened the .rom file with AMIBCP 4.53 and set the stuff I want to be visible to "USER"
(Now, here is the first worrying thing:
http://i.imgur.com/rRtfKPt.png
The menu is not just hidden, its in fact some other Samsung-like menu, located near the original one)
-Opened the .rom file with MMTool 4.50.0.23
-Found the C7 Index with filename "Setup" and copied its GUID:
899407D7-99FE-43D8-9A21-79EC328CAC21
-Opened .rom file with UEFITool NE Alpha32
-Found the GUID in file and extracted it as-is to Setup.ffs
-Opened the Setup.ffs in HexWorkshop, but I can't find anything corresponding to the magical:
01 01 00 01 01 01 numbers, or anything near it (neither zeroes, or I think any combination)
And so, here I am, stuck trying to mod my bios.

Notebook specs:
SAMSUNG NP350V5C-S08PL
P09ABE.012.CP
123490EN400015
Eureka

From BIOS Features tab in AMIBCP:
BIOS Date: 07/04/2013 00:00:00 Ver: 1APTJ (although the BIOS Information, and the info in bios itself says its P09ABE)
BIOS TAG: 1APTJ022

I'm attaching original .rom file, modded (with USER settings) .rom file and Setup.ffs in case anyone needs it to help me.

REQUEST: AMI R0210V5 BIOS Unlock

I'm trying to squeeze as much power out of my Sony E Series (SVE14A390X) as possible before I embark on building a full-size rig.
The final piece in the puzzle is overclocking the cpu, which my i7-3632QM is capable of thanks to Turbo Boost.

HOWEVER, my current BIOS (AMI Aptio 4 R0210V5) does not give me many options at all beyond Hyperthreading.
Can this BIOS be unlocked? I don't know precisely what you need, so here's everything I know:

Sony E Series SVE14A390X
BIOS: https://esupport.sony.com/US/p/swu-downl...roup_id=27
https://ami.com/products/bios-uefi-firmware/aptio-4/ (I know my BIOS is UEFI and running whatever Aptio 4 is)

I can go find the motherboard SN and/or driver/firmware if need be. Please let me know what else I can do!

This is my motherboard, lenovo z710, I could say what is the BIOS as it brings two chips.

Specifications of the chip

CHIP 1 :
winbond 25Q32FVS1Q 1332

CHIP 2 :
winbond 25Q16DVS1Q 1306

Which should I rewrite?

1 OR 2 ?

I want to unlock my bios to be able to enable hot plugging on my miniPCIe port on my laptop, but it has a Sandy Bridge CPU, which the tutorial does not include (http://voltground.com/haven/threads/102/). Is it still possible? I want to be able to use my GTX 1050 for an eGPU.

Thanks!

Please help me with HP BIOS modding

Hello everyone,

I've recently decided to try and mess with my laptop's BIOS. It's a HP Elitebook 8760w, and since I dropped in an extreme processor, I feel I should be able to overclock it (it also has the usual whitelist issues and a dreaded 1333MHz limit on RAM speed, but one problem at a time).

So, I read that these BIOSes are RSA encrypted, however I was able to unpack the ROM file with PhoenixTool and disassemble it with ndisasm. The installer package does have RSAcrypt files in a separate folder, it may be that HP checks it when flashing. The ROM itself doesn't seem to be encrypted from what I can tell.

What I'm looking for is a module where bit 63 (3f?) of register 0x610 is set - it's responsible for locking the Turbo Power Limit settings, which is the most important part of overclocking an extreme Sandy Bridge.

My knowledge of Assembly is limited, I looked for any mov/bts/btr/or operations involving 0x610 - there are a few of them, but I don't see a clear mov then bts anywhere. I'm not sure what other ways could be used to set the bits.

It is possible that it's not even the BIOS responsible for this, but the Intel Management Engine firmware, but I'd like to make sure.

If anyone can look into it and advise, point me in the right direction, I'd be really grateful.

I have attached the BIOS file itself.

The full package can be downloaded from HP's site: http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/publi...nvOid=4061

Thank you!
