[REQUEST] Lenovo Thinkpad X230(i) (G2ETxxWW) Whitelist Removal
Hey - new here but able to pull a read of my BIOS via SOIC 8 clip and Raspberry Pi Zero W. It was certainly fun soldering the GPIO pins on! 

Wondering if anyone can help me:
- Remove wifi/wwan whitelists
- Remove battery whitelist
- Enable advanced menu
- Fix 16 GB/eGPU issue

Below are the flash reads of the version 2.70 BIOS (serial R9WXHLD):
4 MB (MD5: d554ad9075e919a02064865daa3bbfed): https://www.dropbox.com/s/anoqk19y8uo0oh...1.rom?dl=0

Hi everyone.
I have recently bought a used X230 in mostly excellent condition, for an equivalent of something around 150 bucks.
And what a nice machine it is. Would love to give it a FHD mod, as soon as Nitrocaster has them available.
But I have been unable to get rid of the naughty intel management engine. Tried many things and combinations with coreboot, and while linux worked fine, I was unable to boot windows due to ACPI table things missing (with option roms, different settings, neutered me, untouched me, but no luck). I found out however, that there is something like advanced menu, hidden in the UEFI thing itself, which allows turning said feature off. Now I direct my request to Dudu2002, as I have seen you are the most (and am I wrong in saying the only?) active person willing to help. Would you care to modify my UEFI/BIOS firmware thing (also perhaps with any other fixes available, especially whitelist removal) in your spare time? For that, I would be very grateful.

Regards,
Maciek

PS. Here is a fresh dump, which I took after restoring everything to factory default settings (everything stock V2.70).
