(UEFI) Dell XPS 15z L511z modded BIOS - and HOWTO

[kasar]

this is how my descriptor looks, I didnt had to modify anything because I did before like doing what TW said to the whole chip dump at the descriptor part



I already modded the ME region access bits, I just let the GBE unmodded since TW said there was no GBE region at all on my machine.


the problem is that I cant edit the ME firmware itself, not the flash access (read/write) to the ME ^^

now I want to mod my ME image to support overclocking, and be able to rebuild the image and reintegrate it back at the ROM image by paste the hex part ^^

[jkbuha]

Yes - but can you do the following:

1. Dump ME from fptw
2. Open ME using FITC
3. Change CPU type from CPU menu as per method described on rog forum (I don't have access to proper Internet/laptop ATM) as this will enable overclocking/undervolt
4. Save modded ME
5. Flash ME using fptw

I had described how to I think around page 58...

[kasar]

yeah, that was exactly was I was trying ^^

however, I got stuck at the step 4 (Save modded ME), because FITC cant save my current ME, ,I keep getting errors.

that is why I was waiting input from TW, he seemed able to reasembly my ME version changes.

I remember I also flashed the modded ME from TW long time ago via fptw, but it caused a big brick, I suspect fptw messed up some regions and made the system unbotable. (glad I had a whole chip backup ^^)

thats why I want to try to reintegrate manually the ME firmware into the chip image at this time.

but first, I have to be able to mod and save the ME with FITC ^^

[CodeRush]

@kaser, can you use ME region dump from another laptop with overclocking capabilities like Asus G-series or Alienware?

[kasar]

@CodeRush

well, each ME firmware have its own information and adjustments over each chipset I think, so it would be need to be a laptop with the same chipset and hardware.

however, those laptop firmwares can be used to analize it and take them as examples to mod the firmware from the laptop to be modded.

this is what is basically explained at this topic:

http://forum.techinferno.com/general-not...ptops.html

I checked my firmware "clock source select", and relating to that topic, it seems compatible with the mod.

however I keep failing while trying to rebuild the firmware with FTIC, even without modding anything D:

[montagnard]

Hi,

Any idea how to get flash from linux ? (or even a boot usb)

Do you plan to get support to coreboot ?

Hey, guys. Sorry for my lack of inactivity :| Have been polishing my OSX experience regarding touchpad and battery, thanks to @Rehamman over at tonymac.

@kasar regarding your dump .. I have attempted to mod some values but it doesn't save for me either, I have no idea how I managed to export it back then, when we first tried the cross-flashing or ME v8. To be absolutely hoest with you I didn't do anything special back then but just followed how ME was configured for that Alienware x-something machine, or was it Dell anyway ..? You know what I'm referring to, the thread called "Let's unlock bladi-bla". I will try to reiterate the steps I did then to see if it will end up exporting properly and not moaning on some errors.

@jkbuha I have finally tried your VBIOS 2158 that you had posted a while ago, needless to say it didn't work very well for my machine. I lost brightness control and like @ashp (in Acer thread) mentioned the display seemed noticeably dimmer than usual. Man, I just absolutely hate Dell for doing this to their customers..
You can read more about how crappy Dell's SCT is by reading from here and on the following page.

np mate

mmm, do you remember what firmware you modded? the one you extracted from my whole chip image? or the one I got via fptw64 ?


curius notes:

fptw64 version 7.1 does not detect my chip and cant dumpt it, but the 8.1 version does!

FITC 8.1 cant open my ME image, give error, but the version 7.1 can open and read all the parameters perfectly ^^ (however it fail while saving it)

another posibility would be to create a completly new ME image from 0, but checking exactly all the parameters from mine, by reading it, do you think that will work?

edit, I attached the ME image extracted by FPTW64, I think that was the one you sucesfully modded.

I found another tool with the intel tools package, but not sure what it does

it is called cctwin.exe

here is what I got by using it

oh, I forgot to attach the tool ^^

here is it, it also have a PDF file with some ussage help and stuff, it also talk about more hardware required and a required DLL to take be able to use the SMbus feature (however the app worked fine to output those results without aditional HW or DLL in my case, however it obiusly ask for the dll file and extra hardware & test machine while trying the smbus commands)

[kasar]

ok, got back to home, more stuff

by doing this command

cctwin.exe rr CSS

I got following

Intel ® Clock Commander Tool Version: 7.1.20.1119

[0x00] CSS = 0x00011a33

HECI CMD Status = 0x00000000 (SUCCESS)

I remember read at the another topic 0x00011a33 was the thing limitating OC, and to make it working it should be changed to 0x00011a34




this is what I got while trying to change it


cctWin.exe wr CSS = 0x00011a34

HECI CMD Status = 0x00000011 (REGISTER_IS_LOCKED)

wtf, I cant change it :O




allways access denied, even being the only one here with unlocked descriptor, lol xD

I must manage to unlock that registers or to patch and flash the ME image ^^
