Hi, I'm trying to mod bios in my HP 2530p (bios 68PSU). I have un2420 3g modem. When I install it in my laptop and I start it I get “105 - Unsupported WWAN Device Detected System Halted. Remove device and restart.” error. For updating my bios I use EzH2O v2.1.0.4 and WinHex 15.6 SR-11. There are steps which I made to make the un2420 supported with 2530p. Till now without success. 1) I located two modules in my insyde bios which are in some way related with the whitelist and “105-…” error. In the module 8EEE35BE-AEDE-40D4-ADA2-B6FE089BE1B8 I found “105-…” strings (in many languages). In the module 1124113F-2F8F-4973-BC82-2E505256B9D7 there are VEN_ID for network cards – whitelist???. I tried to remove each of this module and after saving the bios and flashing from the USB stick I got error “Error in file content read from disk. Please try recreating file or disk.” and the bios can’t be flashed. I use erompaq 3.0F. 2) In the next step I tried to change VEN_ID for my un2420 3G card (in the offset according to the 1124113F-2F8F-4973-BC82-2E505256B9D7 module). In this case I also couldn’t flash the bios after the modification because of the “Error in file content read from disk. Please try recreating file or disk.” 3) Then I analyzed my bios according to the Icelord's and hspumanti’s guide and I found few jump instruction. I tried to modify them into JMP and JZ but after this I couldn’t flash bios. Error the same as in the step 1 and 2. What I also registered is that when I open bios with WinHex (doesn’t matter if from entire or primary memory) and I look e.g. for “105 – Unsupported…” string, this string starts one time at the 4B17AE offset and when I open it again it starts for example at 4957EA. There is no rule at which offset it starts. Also sometimes I get popup in the WinHex that “memory has changed”. Is it normal, these two situations? I suppose that after making the modification in the bios the checksum is wrong. That’s why I’m getting error during the flashing. Do you have any idea what elso I can try and how to correct the checksum? Maybe some of you know method how to mod the whitelist in my bios? Raptor2
Anyone here? I want to change Intel Wifi Link 5100 to AR9287, but i got the "104" error message. How can i remove/modify the whitelist or wlan card's ven_id/p_id/subsystem_id? Thank you.
The method is describe on first post, i can provide HPQFlash or Erompaq specialy patched to allow flashing modded bios's, are you candidate?
i would be interested in that HpQflash and erompaq. Just got a mini 5103 and i'm having a hard time with the built in wifi
ProBook 5330m whitelist removal I want to remove whitelist from my HP 5330m (F22 bios ver.) I've already got acquainted with unpack procedure with Andy's Tools. Despite I heard a lot of warnings that ProBooks and Elite books can not be patched still (after restart it is bricked), I hope I will be able to do that. actually, bios modification is another story, major task at this moment is ability of successful flashing (I know there is RSA cryptography around these bioses). Please, tell me whether I need specially patched flash utility and if so, which patch actually I need? Would be greatful for any help. Thank you
