Hello Every One,
Having recieved no replies to my earlier Whitelist removal request, I have decided to give it a try my self, however myself being a novice at BIOS Mods, would humbly request your help with it.
Here is how far I have been thus far, using Andys Phoenix tool I open up the downloaded BIOS.rom file for my Toshiba Laptop (Selected No Slic , and allow module modification - Under advanced options), this results in a dump folder which is illustrated in the attached image - The dump folder has a number of .ROM files and another folder called BIOS which contains a lot of files with extension BIOS.
searching through all of the ROM files for my excising WIFI+BT HEX (My current card BCM4313) -
-Current original card: (Broadcom94313 - WiFi + BT) PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4727&SUBSYS_7175144F&REV_01
vendor 14E4
device 4727
subsys 71 75 14 4F
HEX Search: E4 14 27 47 4F 14 75 71
I have come across a single instance for the HEX string (its a small 7kb .ROM file - Image Attached)
Now my question is - is this where I need to change the HEX value to those of my replacement card -
PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_43B1&SUBSYS_21231A3B&REV_03
Vendor 14E4
dev 43B1
Sybsys 21 23 1A 3B
Replacement HEX E4 14 B1 43 3B 1A 23 21
And if the answer is yes after changing and saving in HEX editor, what are the rest of the steps to compile and upload the moded BIOS (A step by step play out would be most appreciated). When I start with Andys Tool it creates a BIOS-Slic.ROM file (even though I select NO SLIC in advanced options). Is this the moded BIOS I need to flash with? And just how would I get about doing it?
Also one more question - When I check the BIOS information using SIW (Hardware Information Utility) it shows it to be a Toshiba BIOS, Using Andy's tool, opening the downloaded .ROM Bios file reports the BIOS to be EFI Insyde, Reading into some of .ROM files there is a mention of Phoenix a number of times - so which one is it?
Thank You in advance for any help you may be able to provide.
