[REQUEST] Lenovo Thinkpad X230(i) (G2ETxxWW) Whitelist Removal
#21
I've tried the method of newcat to replace device id for Intel 7260 ac wlan Card.
Couldn't find PhoenixTool v1.90, i took PhoenixTool v2.50 and RwPortableX64V1.6.5 instead.
Found the whitelist in:
79E0EDD7-9D1D-4F41-AE1A-F896169E5216_2215.ROM

After modifying the file wich contains the whitelist and flashed the modifyed bios I still have the message of unsupported pci Card.
After using the Universal BIOS Backup ToolKit 2.0, I saw that no changes were written to the bios.
Tried this on Lenovo X230T, Bios 2.57

Had someone else succsess with the method above?

(11-25-2013, 09:13 PM)newcat Wrote: f) Under the folder C:\DRIVERS\FLASH\g2uj15us\G2ET97WW\DUMP, we have near 2,000 files. The while list file is among them. I don't know the naming rule for these files and just know there will be one or more files should contain the white list. We have got the device ID from device manager as VEN_10EC&DEV_8176&SUBSYS_819510EC which should be translated to 'EC107681EC109581'. Then it will be a huge job to find the hex string among the 2,000 files. Now we can turn to Linux, just copy the files to a Linux system and then save following code as a shell script(x230.sh)
#!/bin/bash
for file in /tmp/DUMP/*.ROM; do
xxd $file |grep -q -i 'ec10 7681 ec10 9581'
echo $? '-' $file
done
Then run the follwing command,
./x230.sh |grep '0 - '
And I got the result
0 - /tmp/DUMP/79E0EDD7-9D1D-4F41-AE1A-F896169E5216_1_1457.ROM
So we find the whitelist file

A simpler solution to find the file would be:
LC_CTYPE="" grep -lP '\xec\x10\x76\x81\xec\x10\x95\x81' /tmp/DUMP/*.ROM

or with Perl:
perl -ne 'print $ARGV if /\xec\x10\x76\x81\xec\x10\x95\x81/' /tmp/DUMP/*.ROM

I am pointing out the Perl solution because Perl is available (free) in Windows too (but I haven't tested this in Windows).
The first solution is also also available in Windows for free, by installing Cygwin.

I would also like to point out that people have trouble bypassing the BIOS whitelist in the X230 because it seems there is a digital signature involved (I don't know the details). So how come you were able to overcome this? Is it because you downgraded it to an older firmware version too? Or perhaps your hardware is different somehow?

I am very interested in hearing if this is indeed working.

The reason why I want to whilelist this laptop's bios is because x230 with Centrino 2200 has no bluetooth embedded in its wifi module.

But it seems, this type of laptop have certain difficulties in whitelisting its BIOS due to some reason nobody can explain.

I was tempted to give a personal modding a shot, but terrified if the laptop gone bricked.

So I try another workaround, some says this half mini wifi combo module (link) will be compatible with my laptop, so I just ordered it and hopefully next month I can experiment beyond the BIOS modding.

I'll keep you posted

The trick doesn't work on my x230.
Even with the original Centrino 2200 can still working, but the Centrino 2230 obviously still blocked.
I don't know how you did it man, I hope you can send me your modified $01D3000_SLIC.FL2 so I can directly flash it to see what happen
