[REQUEST] Lenovo X220 (8DETxxWW) Whitelist Removal

[HarryW]

I would like to have the whitelist removed (including WiFi modules & OEM battery lock) from the latest Bios (v1.44 - 8duj29us) for the Lenovo Thinkpad W520. Not sure, if this belongs to the whitelist forum too, but if so and if possible, the RAM clock rate lock should also be removed.

Link to original bios:

Thank you!

Did you notice that X220 1.44 BIOS is out? Any chance for a modded version so we can use the new intel microcode directly from BIOS?

I'd probably start a new thread for this request.

Thanks a lot! Very much appreciated. Would love to hear from ValdikSS concerning the future plans

Very much appreciated! They have improved protection on CVE-2017-5715 (Spectre). It's a much needed one indeed.

I'd love to see this as well. Hopefully ValdikSS sees this, but in case someone else decides to pick it up, there is some work done on sha1 + rsa validation which allows TPM to be used without hindrance on modded versions:

Here's a version with whitelist removed:

I also made full-blown version with all modifications but didn't test it. Contact me if you're willing to test it (it may render your laptop unbootable and would require a programmer to re-flash working image).

ValdikSS ! Thank you! you did it again. I'd stick to the previous version till you come up with the finished bios

I have several X220T and I just got a SOIC clip for my Rpi, but I'm still trying to figure out how to use it. I'm ok to use one of these as a guinea pig for the sake of science! When you say 'full blown', do you mean that it has all of the features that your 1.43 mod had?
