    No downgrade needed. First was booting into GRUB and supplying:
    setup_var 0x4ab 0x0
    setup_var 0x1ee 0x1

    Then using sleep bug with fpt with flash with fixed bios again. Didn't need to downgrade at all. :)

    This laptop does have an issue with GRUB and using the setup_var command though, the prompt will freeze after entering a command so I let it sit for about 2-3 mins, force rebooted back into GRUB again, and then supplied the second command. Same with that, froze again so I let it sit for 2-3 mins then force rebooted and did the sleep bug afterward.

    Hi
    I edit bios Lenovo G550 and i have a problem. I edit file BIOSCOD02.ROM. I change identification new WIFI CARD. I only replace hex value and i have still error that file is too big:
    New BIOSCOD02.ROM Module is 4 bytes too big

    How i can resolve this problem ?
    I edit file in xvi32 editor HEX.

    If i have wifi card with BT i must add info about wifi and BT or only wifi ?

    Wifi:
    PCI\VEN_1814&DEV_3290&SUBSYS_2B871A3B

    BT
    PCI\VEN_1814&DEV_3298&SUBSYS_29871A3B
