[REQUEST] Lenovo IdeaPad Y410p & Y510p (74CNxxWW) Whitelist Removal

[sovem]

I could upload the BIOS file if you wanted to look at it (and if I knew where to upload it to), but it sounds like it might be a fruitless effort, judging by the conversation at the techinferno forums.

Try use this tool: https://app.box.com/s/n2x82lyadsm1vh4vy7fd
Backup and upload bios for mod.

Can't seem to get it attached to the forum, so I hope a dropbox link works:
BIOS Backup+Screenshot

The write protection errors are confusing, because I was able to flash from 1.07 to a modified 1.07. It's since going to 3.05 that I've been having issues flashing, so there must be something specific to 3.05.

Looks like it failed to flash from DOS.

Abort: 00
Exception: 0E
Error Code: 00000000

Also tried to flash in Windows with fptw64. Looked promising at first, but this was the end result:

C:\Fptw64>fptw64 -f backwl.bin -bios

Hi all,

I too have some wifi install issues with the Y510p.
I get theUnauthorized hardware error.
It came with a centrino N-2230 and i want to install a Intel Wireless-AC 7260.

Mine is a dutch version with BIOS 2.02, i already have a backup of the bios done with fptw64, but i cannot find a modded bios for 2.02.
I have a link for the file, i can PM it.

Can you guys help me?

Many Thanks.

Nevermind, all is fixed, just go to Techinferno Forums http://forum.techinferno.com/lenovo-ibm/...s-mod.html

There is also a fix for 3.05 there, just read the tread carefully.

Thanks for the heads up. I hadn't had time to keep up with the threads, and I would have missed the post in the TechInferno thread if you hadn't mentioned it.

Successfully downgraded to 2.07 and patched the whitelist.

Please help removing the whitelist on BIOS v3.05. Here's the file: http://www.sendspace.com/file/gmy4oc
