@w_buffet

重启之后还是找不到wwan卡

我的型号是6910P独立ATI显卡的，用了你修改好的删除白名单和slic2.1的F19文件，刷新之后第一次进入系统可以发现WWAN卡，也可以正常使用，但是重启之后，或者关机重启之后就找不到，请问是什么原因

 

cool,

Press F10 and reset bios to default, may solve the problem, in fact i don't know.

 

Press F10 and reset bios to default, the first time we can see that the WWAN card, and the second to enter the BIOS, see the

 

This situation seems to be white list still exists, in the BIOS file, HP set up a white list of alternate test

 

This is the best progress I have seen on modified bios. There has been a lot of crazy ideas of bypassing the white list issue with little success. I have tried experimenting with bios editing tools with minor success. Thanks for the expertise and help.

 

Thank's
and i'm now using this "whithelist removal" expertise for other brand/models.

2540p no-whitelist BIOS mod available?

Hi TTAV134, I have a 2540p running original shipping BIOS (F.03 / 68CSU). Does your current approach to removing whitelist support the 2540p yet? I didnt see it in thread #1107. If so, can you send me BIOS & instructions?

Also, in preparation for issue during loading of new BIOS, does your note re: USB Key EFI BIOS Disaster Recovery apply to HP 2540p laptop? Or do I need to purchase USB Floppy drive?

Many thanks!

Regards, T

 

Hi Nando, I currently have a 2540p that will NOT let me use my Sierra Wireless MC5725 (which did work via the whitelist on my 2510p). Kinda crazy since its a Sprint network device (i.e. CDMA2000) meaning there is no SIM, so the billing is device specific. "One" would think that by purchasing the mobile device (and paying for monthly service) I should be entitled to use it anywhere that it is feasibly support. I guess HP isnt "one".

A test had been done on this model, the bios does not support to be modified, that brick the laptop.

 

I was redirected here from appropriate section and I would appreciate any support updating SLIC 2.0 to 2.1 on HP xw8600 Workstation. Recently new BIOS 1.36 has been released. When i launch hpqflash.exe and try to edit the memory with HxD I am unable to find any expression beginning with HPQOEM. Maybe is the SLIC table elsewhere?

 

really no idea, sorry.

I have found the same issue with my 2510P. Seems the bios does some other checks and if they fail, the USB/WWAN port isn't enabled. So far only HS2300 and UN2420 (Gobi-2000) work. GTM378 and MC8781 do not.

 

is there some hardware differences between these cards, as power supply voltage, is it 3 volts also.
Do you have an error 105 with GTM378 or MC8781 when using an original (non patched) HP bios. does the card is correctly detected.
in attach file, the portion of bios where the WWAN card is tested, no mystery, no hidden white list.

No error with the MC8781. Presumably the bios disables (clobbers) the USB ports, then selectively enables them upon confirming a device checks out OK. Unusually, the radio LED would flash during bootup. I'm hoping to get my hands on another working WWAN card and try to compare PCI Configuration space to figure out how the USB port is being clobbered by the bios.

 

That's confirm what i think, it's a hardware problem. The card is not detected.

 

Installed, reinstall the battery, enter COMS can see the WWAN option, save and exit. the second time into COMS, then we do not see the WWAN option, and the symptoms before the white list, like, just do not Reported 105 errors,
