[REQUEST] Lenovo Thinkpad X230(i) (G2ETxxWW) Whitelist Removal

[Dudu2002]

Hello,
I managed to read both bios chips of my x230 and get a valid dump. I patched EC for battery whitelist and I would like to have whitelist on bios and advanced menu please (16GB + pci-express graphics would also be welcome). I attach the dumps below.

Can anyone patch it for me?
Thank you very much!

Hi, could some one please help me mod my bios?
I would like to have the:

1. Whitelist
   
2. Advance menu
   
3. if possible pci-express graphics + 16GB
   

I have been bashing my head against the phoenix method(https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-Solved-REQUEST-Lenovo-X230-wlan-whitelist-removal) for days and I am unable to create the mod.
I have no idea what I am doing wrong. Could someone please help me do it? If possible could you teach me how you have done it?

Here are my rom dumps, I read them twice and did a diff on them:

1. 2.70 4MB https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xpzyH1j...sp=sharing
   
2. 2.70 8MB https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pjLe01D...sp=sharing
   

Please let me know what other information you need.
Bios version: 2.70
Original Wif Card: Wireless-N 2200
Original PCI-ID little-endian: 8680 9108 8680 2242 
New Wifi Card: Wireless-AC 7260
New PCI-ID little-endian: 8680 b108 8680 7040
Do you need ACPI tables?

Thank you very much!

Hello Dudu2002, nice that you helps us all here.

I actually have two X230 that I want to make christmas presents from - but I need to get rid of the WIFI whitelists of each.
If it's no more work for you I love to get the other nifty things like advance menu, PCI-Express Graphics, battery whitelist removal etc.

Hi
Your bios chip is rewrite protected
Bios mod can be flashed using SPI-programmer+SOIC8 clip only

Thank you very much for your quick answer.

When i'll flash the bios using SPI + SOIC8 may i use my 16gb ram ? so sorry, like i said i'm newb and just wanted to use my config normally.

Hey there, I learnt a lot while trying to flash my bios.
Follow this tutorial and do a dump of your bios.

This is actually a code boot flashing tutorial, but you should use flashprogrammer to save a copy of your bios.room instead.

You might need another computer to SSH into the PI to make your life easier.

The 8pin SOIC definitely works, it's just that it is very.tricky to get it right. The first time I did this it took me a whole day to complete it.

Doing this will be a 3day learning journey for absolute noobs. Be prepared
