Post Updated.
I updated the bios to have an official on form Lenvo.

I read a lot of forum posts and it seems that nobody had any sucess with T530's.

It is even possible to flash a T530 Bios or I should buy a new Wifi/WWAN card?

Thank you.

I can mod this bios to remove WLAN\WWAN check, but the mod can be flashed with HW programmer only.

Hi,

I think that I can do it, I already "flashed" my bios with help form http://www.allservice.ro/ (http://www.allservice.ro/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3521).

If you can please upload the modded bios and any instruction you may have. I think that there are a lot of ppl with this kind of problem.
I was the first guy who reseted a T530 supervisor password, (with help) so I think I can do this to.

Thank you.
