I think I know what the problem is on this error...

[2014/3/11 9:19:7]
OS = Windows 8 64bit
Driver Loading....Failed.
The Utility does not support this system or this OS version.

I've gotta locate a utility that works on Windows 8.1--will start looking and let you know what I find!

Tried moving the files ($01D2000.FL1 and $01D2000.FL2) into the correct location and got this error:

[2014/3/11 9:27:41]
OS = Windows 8 64bit
Driver Loading....Done
Error : BIOS image file does not match this system.
Error : EC image file does not match this system.
Error : BIOS image file cannot be found.

Moving on to performing the backup and crud... Another error message. Think I got a partial backup.

Error 201: [FPTw64.exe] cannot be run on the current platform.
Please contact your vendor.

hi Sovem..
i'm back Smile
i tried to do the whitelist removal myself, but still not success. Big Grin
i hope you can shed some light to me on the process...

so, from my understanding through google thread in MDL forum, needed tools are:
- phoenixtools from andyp. i used the latest version. as per 29-march-2014, latest version is 2.51.
- rweverything. one post suggest that this report only need for SLIC modification, no need for whitelist removal.
- hex editor. i use Neo Hex Editor.
- disassembler (??) for whitelist check procedure removal/alter.
- phxnpatch.exe

so what i did so far:
- download latest T430 bios from http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/...uj31us.exe and extract by clicking the exe.
- open $01D2000.FL1 through phoenixtools, then got "DUMP" folder
- search through "Find in Files" menu in Neo Hex Editor for "8680850086801113". (it is hardware id for one of intel wifi card)
it found on the following files:
- "79E0EDD7-9D1D-4F41-AE1A-F896169E5216_2211.ROM"
- "BIOS\BIOS2208.BIOS"
- "BIOS\BIOS9.BIOS"
from here i got lost. Smile)

what i understand from some posts, the first file (.ROM file) need to be modified in the checking procedure.
i tried the phxnpatch.exe method, but found it matched none.
so other method should be using disassembler.
tried the IDA, but i can't opened it into its assembly language format.
any suggestion how to open it in IDA? or perhaps you have alternative disassembler for this task?

thanks in advance for your help.
---------------------------
edit on 20140331:
- finally able to open the "79E0EDD7-9D1D-4F41-AE1A-F896169E5216_2211.ROM" using 64bit version of the software.

Ok I was interested in all experiments to reflash bios in Eeprom by SPI Programmer,
do followed the discussion of T530 and U :

"I will ask the guy who flashed with HW programer.
I send him an e-mail when I got the response I will post it.
thanks for your effort, however after sending my previous reply on your post,
i've got an idea to compare file provided with whitelist removed from this forum,
back-up from fpt64.exe and back-up from my flash programmer.
based on back-up from my flash programmer, i cut the file from first offset to 00300000.
the resulted file size is the same between those 2 files.
so i write to the ROM.
at first i got verification failed after writing to ROM.
then i decided to erase, blank check, then write again."

There was an wondeful Guide to use SPI PGM here :

http://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-TU...ware-Flash

And here I started to write about Whitelist removing :

http://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-He...-whitelist

I followed the discussion with Kenmod and I found some interesting things about bios file to write into Eeprom, It's all
knowledge from Sovem not mine and Ididn't spread it.
I can explain how to extract your decapsulated bios from original capsulated as I wrote a dirty Guide here and CodeRush have done a tool :

http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads...r?p=884317&viewfull=1#post884317

http://rghost.net/52544682

It's mportant to extract Decapsulated Original Bios as with original Capsulated will brick the laptop, once You got the Decapsulated then You
can try to reflash it (if your Eeprom not have write protection active - error 280) by Recovery Mode or FPT using prr tool.
So many times It's to prefer doing a Bios Backup by FPT or Universal Bios Backup 2.0 and operate on It to mod,then use to reflash.
In Your case where Eeprom locked It needs to use SPI PGM to write directly into chip and the file to use is little bit different than
backup file (I looked with Kenmod files and can explain in PM).
I have got only two congratulations in Bios Mod Programming one from Donovan6000 and one from Sovem and I am proud of them.
I would ask some about your SPIPGM as I had read that You did program chip directly on board and only few guys could do it.

"i've done the flashing couple months ago using GQ-4X flash programmer bought from mcumall_dot_com.
got the modified BIOS from another forum.
the modified bios' size was bigger than the one that i got from backing-up using 'fpt64.exe' tool.
so i compared both files and cut the modified file to get same file size.
then successfully flashing with GQ-4X.
now my hackintosh on T430 can browse using any wifi card.
i didn't desolder the chip. just clipped the chip with POMONA SOIC."

So I would know about It, please as I would buy it too !

Sovem is the best progrmmer I have meet in Slic and Whitelist mod, so if You want to talk about this with her I will glad to partecipate !
I will ask to You if You have these files yet (backups and Sovem to flash) to analize them and compare with Kenmod too.
Let me know what d You think.

hi BDMaster,
thanks for replying.
regarding my problem with opening the *.ROM with IDA, it's about the version of IDA. i need to open it using 64version of IDA.
then using default option provided by open dialog form, the file is successfully open.
however i'm stuck in understanding which part need to be modified. LOL
i'll write more on that problem later, including your question to my previous attempt to flash into the ROM.
need to deal with my kids first. Smile
