HP G62-220CA UEFI Shell Mod
#1
Hi Everyone!

First time poster, long time lurker. I recently stumbled up a post by Donovan6000 that gave me the urge to pull the trigger and flash a modded BIOS. I've tinkered with my BIOS files before but never actually flashed it til now. Here is my README from the zip along with a picture of the shell on my laptop. With this complete and knowing my laptop is one of the few that is RSA signed without the check I'll be experimenting with unlocking menus or whitelists, etc. I haven't found much info on the G62 but hopefully this will bring those users out of hiding! Tongue

Enjoy!

Code:
UEFI support for HP G62-220CA (Possibly others..)

-INFO-
System: HP G62-220CA
Tools Used: UEFI Tool, Universal IFR Extractor, EFI Variable Dumper, A Hex Editor
Original File: SP52598.exe
BIOS Version: F29
Supported Boards: 1444; 1445; 1446

-MODS-

Patched SHA1 verification of CryptRSA.efi with SHA1 of Shell.efi

-BACKGROUND-

After reading his post (http://donovan6000.blogspot.com/2013/08/look-what-i-did.html) on booting the UEFI
Shell via HP's harcoded UEFI implementation, I decided to see what my system was capable of. Using tools from
Donovan6000 I noticed my BIOS has hidden menus along with a setting for UEFI Boot (Pre-enabled of course!).
For my first attempt I decided to keep it simple and just patch the SHA1 verification. With UEFITool I did a
quick search for the SHA1 of the original CryptRSA.efi in my decrypted BIOS and switched it out for the SHA1
of the Shell.efi. Then I patched my InsydeFlash so I can flash my decrypted BIOS, and well in less than 24hrs
I have minimal UEFI support.

-INCLUDED-

Modded 01444F29.bin
Patched InysdeFlash
Shell.efi renamed in correct folder structure

-NOTE-

I, Crahzee, do not take any resposibility or liability for what may, could, might, will, or won't happen if you flash this.
I am providing it as-is, without any further support. If you require a dictionary at any point during this README, maybe
think twice before flashing. If this brings you success, then your welcome and please give credit where its due. If this
brings misfortune, then I hate to say it but I told you so but it isnt the end of the world.

-INSTRUCTIONS-

1. Before continuing, lookup how to recover your BIOS with a USB and Win + B

2. Format a USB drive as FAT32 and change the label to HP_TOOLS

3. Extract the Shell.zip to the root of the USB drive

4. Run InsydeFlash, it will auto flash the modded BIOS and reboot

5. Only have the USB with extracted files plugged in

6. When splash screeen appears press <F2>

7. Welcome to UEFI World!

UEFI Party! Cool

Awesome job. Your the first person I've seen who has been able to recreate this mod Smile

As you've already noticed, the UEFI implemented is not up to the standards that you expect. I had many graphical issues and could never boot into Ubuntu with it. Similar issues are probably what's causing the orange screen then reboot that you mentioned on my blog.

Me too.
On your blog is required some accept for posting?
Yesterday I tried few times but out of luck.

As for EFI, my skills on programming are almost 0 but I fight with white list and EFI boot.

For white list I have two methods but on both wifi is OFF when power up or resume laptop,that's annoying.

For EFI I think something block them.
Maybe some boot option policy?
One USB pen formatted GPT and FAT32 is not even listed as boot device.
One USB pen formatted MBR and FAT32 is listed as boot device.
On F9 boot device and also in setup menu where define boot order.

Normal,who cares if is anything on that pen drive?
Could be unformatted once is connected and detected must be present as boot option.Like optical unit,is unloaded but still present in boot option.
Then why pen with GPT is ignored?

You may notice that is a list of some GUID's
But not GUID like file,something as functions or created by SetupUtility.

I noted them and search for their names and compared with other notebooks that was able to boot in EFI or works by adding modules and enabling menus.
Here is one table.
Code formatting broke align.

Hope somebody find this useful in one way.

As you may see on G62 is missing some.
Did know someone what is that?
Is just some data or are functions available of setup utility or something else.
