[REQUEST] Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 15 (8ACNxxWW) Whitelist Removal

[RanmaKei]

First Tool says:
7-Zip: Unsupported Method

second tool says:
Can not identify the BIOS

---

I took apart the compressed file and ran the READ.bat file on the higher version number. Attached is a picture of the output.

I also found the file from the READ script entitled x64_bios-region_.bin that appears to be the BIOS dump. This file is attached as well.

I really would appreciate help on this. I've been reading everything that I can on how to remove the whitelist but run in to differences in my BIOS with the steps provided. For example I couldn't find the 55 8b ec bytes after the MZ using WinHEX.

Please help me!

Hi,

I am also looking for a whitelist removal on a Flex 15 from Lenovo - Bios is 8ACN08WW - I believe this has been dealt with before with paperwolf and roro789.

Many thanks,

Ian2209.

I checked out those posts from before, however a lot of the how to was not explained. It looked like they figured it out though.

It would be nice to get some direction on this. I couldn't even read the chip with a chip programmer.

I get the following error when running flash1 and flash2.bat from dos booting off a usb drive.

error 280 failed to disable write protection for the bios space

[Ian2209]

Here we go! I also tried to flash the bios from DOS and got the same error message - see attached jpg. Can Computrace enabled BIOS option affect this?

  ACPITBLS.BIN (Size: 68.87 KB / Downloads: 1)    

Here is my fpt bios read file as well:

  bios-region_.bin (Size: 6.5 MB / Downloads: 5)

Many thanks!

Hello, I know this Thread is old (all files are deleted already), but can somebody assist me in unlocking the White List of the Lenovo Flex 15?
My Bios version is 8acn34ww, too!
I would like to buy the following WiFi Card

http://geizhals.de/intel-wireless-ac-726...8.html?plz=&t=v&va=b&vl=de&hloc=at&hloc=de&v=e#filterform

since the built in Card [Qualcomm Atheros AR9485WB-EG] has no AC standard.
