[ASK] Hidden Menu (Advanced)

$
0
0
Hi All,

This is my first time trying to edit the BIOS.
I'm trying to modify an BIOS (Phoenix SecureCore Tiano) to show up a hidden menu (Advanced).
Here is following the steps :

1. Open latest BIOS (JE40124.WPH) using UEFITool
[Image: UEFITool1.jpg]

2. Find "PlatformSetupAdvanced" and found in CFEF94C4-4167-466A-8893-8779459DFA86
[Image: UEFITool2.jpg]

3. Extract using Universal IFR Extractor
[Image: UEFITool3.jpg]

4. After that, in CFEF94C4-4167-466A-8893-8779459DFA86.txt I found "0x2D8B1 Default Store: Standard Default - Advanced 0x0 {5C 06 0D 03 00 00}"
[Image: UEFITool4jpg.jpg]

Display in HxD :

Question 
1. Is it correct that the file I will edit? 
2. If correct, do I have to change 0x0 {5C 06 0D 03 00 00} to 0x1 {5C 06 0D 03 00 00} to show the hidden menu?
3. If wrong, is there another way to show up the hidden menu? Please tell me.

Here is my latest BIOS :

I'am sorry for my bad english.
Thanks in advance

HP BIOS - Invert/Change Bios Background Colours, Is it Possible?

$
0
0
Hi guys,

I have a HP laptop which has two internal disk drives (M.2 & SATA), one is for work, another is for personal use. The good thing about the HP Bios is that it has a setting which allows internal disk connection ports to be Enabled/Disabled from the bios, so I regularly switch between the two drives and only ever have 1 port enabled at a time, this means the two systems can be completed separate from each other.

The problem is that when regularly accessing the bios, especially in the evening/night when it's dark, the default bright white background of the bios becomes blinding - is it possible to change the colour to black background and white text instead?

I have the BIN file for a bios update from HP so if that can be modified, I will then be able to run it as a simple update file.

I've found a few YouTube videos showing how to edit the HP bios file but in the videos, when the bin file is opened up, it's a bunch of numbers which give no indication about which values change which settings...

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Hello. Shy

I have an s145-api (81v70000br) from Lenovo and really stressed with the impossibility ti change uma framer buffer size. I have 8gb ram and the bios are allocation 2gb to vram, wich I don't really use (tested on normal conditions and it's using 0,5gb max), leaving me with 5,7gb ram only. It is absolutely ridiculous that I can't change this on settings.

Could you pleeeease help me? Thank you very much.  Heart

please can anyone help!

while trying to upgrade my old m.2 ssd to new faster one, the bios i had would not accept the change, so i sought help from the acer community as im not that great with bios programing and would prefer to leave it alone.

so problem was wanted to upgrade my m.2 ssd boot drive as it wasn't very big 60GB, so i could run the programs from a partion of the same drive instead of the the old machanical hdd. so did my research (bloody hard to find what m.2 drive you can actualy run, especialy when acer put a sata m.2 into a pcie slot) so 5 hard drives later Angry Angry . found new nvme ssd that  is accepted by windows shows in in drive manager and disk manager so i can initialize the drive at last Big Grin  Big Grin .

cloned windows on to it wouldnt boot bios wont recognise the drive because acer in their wisdom have set the pcie slot to sata only even though it accepts both Angry Angry Angry Angry Angry Angry Angry Angry Angry Angry .

went to acer support no one there to help so went to acer community laid out my problem and got reply from nice man very helpful i thought, i thought!!! told me to update bios downloaded new one flashed it in no problem but still would not boot to new ssd so reported back told him id updated bios to v 1.14 which is newest on uk site. im now month 4 of what should have only taken an hour at most so you can see my pain. he reports back there is a v1.19 gives link to web address looked legitimate looked like acer site. so flashed bios all looked good until i relalized the start went no further than acer logo Angry Angry Angry 

so tried extracting bios from package as discribed here with to recover bios with toold like phoenix tool, wincrisis, ect but as i said at the start not good at it phoenix wouldnt extract so other couldnt read it and so on

so after very long time(nearly as long as this expination) trying to get my nvme drive in, computer dead!!!! but does have recoery option if only i could sort usb drive to do so..

so what i would like to ask is can some one please please unlock my bios and package it so i put straight on to usb to recover my bios and then flash with unlocked bios with advance tab because im Ship at it and at the end of my rope with this.

Lenovo M73 tiny CPU support

I am new here and would like to thank everyone ahead of time for help. I have a Lenovo M73 tiny that has a weird issue with an I5-4590T which is confirmed working. it boots up fine but if I reboot it (say changed bios setting and exit, or control-alt-delete), it would hang up with black screen, no LED status and the fan continues to spin. If I force a turn off by holding the power button, it will be able to boot up again on subsequent power up. It's similar to the following thread except in my case it boots up ok but just can't reboot. 
https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-L...0T-support

I am attaching a Bios dump that I created using a programmer, and any help would be appreciated. I tried updating the microcode with UBU but that made no difference so I am running out of ideas.

Unlocked BIOS for Gigabyte Aero 15 Classic (9th Gen)

$
0
0
So here is package to create an Unlocked BIOS for Gigabyte Aero 15 Classic (9th gen processors). It is based on the version "BIOS B04 & DC F003". It has been tested on an Aero Classic WA with i7-9750H and RTX 2060. It should work on other models of Aero Classic 9th Gen processors, as long as they use the same BIOS version.
I did not make the mod, but I am sharing it here since there seems to be many people who are interested on it, and it seems hard to get.

USE IT UNDER YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY. FLASHING AN UNOFFICIAL BIOS VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY, AND MAY RENDER YOUR DEVICE UNUSABLE IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG. I DECLINE ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY PROPERTY DAMAGE, DATA LOSS OR ANY OTHER KIND OF LIABILITY CAUSED BY THE USE OF THIS BIOS MOD PACKAGE.


INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Install the Correct Official BIOS
First of all, download and install the official "BIOS B04 & DC F003" package from Gigabyte's site. I will put an additional download link at the end of this post, in case Gigabyte replaces it for a newer version and takes it down.

2. Download BIOS mod package
Download and uncompress the BIOS mod package, linked at the end of this post

3. Dump BIOS
Run 01-DUMP.bat as administrator. It will generate a dump.rom file at the same directory. This BIOS file is exclusive for your machine.

4. Replace Module
Run 02-REPLACE.bat as administrator. It will replace some modified modules base on dump.rom, and make a unlocked BIOS named dump2.rom. 
It may take a while and some command windows will appear. If it gets stuck for several minutes, press Enter as many times as necessary, but do not close the window.

5. Change BIOS Lock Variable
This is the most difficult step. We will create a bootable GRUB-EFI disk, with Secureboot capabilities. Then, we will use it to change the BIOS lock variable, so we are able to flash an unsigned BIOS.

a) Prepare a USB or SD Card, and run 03-BOOTUSB.bat. Follow the on-screen instructions to create a bootable device.

b) Reboot your laptop with the USB/SDCard plugged. Press F12 on startup for Boot Menu, and select your USB/SDCard. Unless you already disabled Secure Boot, you will get a blue "Access Denied" screen.

c) Do the Following:
  - Press Enter to select "OK"
  - Press any key before the timeout expires
  - Select "Enroll key from disk"
  - Select the first device on the list
  - Select "ENROLL_THIS_KEY_IN_MOKMANAGER.cer"
  - Select "Continue"
  - Select "Yes"
  - Select "Reboot"
  - Then press F12 again for Boot Menu, and select your USB/SDCard

  - This will get you to the GRUB prompt:

[Image: 2-GRUB-shell-before.jpg]

d) At the GRUB prompt, type exactly this command:

Code:
setup_var 0xB48 0x0


Be very careful not to make any typos, because that could ruin your whole BIOS and hard-brick your laptop. We want to change the hex address 0xB48 from 0x01 (locked) to 0x00 (unlocked).
[Image: 3-GRUB-shell-after.jpg]

e) Type "reboot" and press Enter, to return to Windows.

6. Re-Flash BIOS
Run 04-FLASH.bat as administrator to flash modded BIOS.


You should be able to reboot now into an unlocked BIOS:
