[REQUEST] Lenovo x121e (AMD, 8RETxxWW) Whitelist Removal

[stuken]

Thanks for the unlock on the previous version. Unfortunately there was a bug in the older BIOS version affecting the AMD variant that caused the 3g card to intermittently not function after returning from sleep. This has been fixed in the new version posted. Thanks.

BIOS Version: 8quj07us (1.15/1.14) http://support.lenovo.com/en_IE/download...D=DS019251
BIOS LINK: http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/...uj07us.exe
Existing card: F3607gw
VID/PID: USB\VID_0930&PID_130C&REV_0000

Guessing this was missed over the Christmas. There was another person looking for this white list removal but unfortunately posted in the wrong forum so bumping for them also. Ive also noticed i put the incorrect VID/PID values. They should be: PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8176&SUBSYS_819510EC&REV_01

You have link to bios with whitelist removed a few posts up in this thread. It will work with any card.

Thanks you for your great work camilo!
But there is one problem:
I bought an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 Mini PCIe Wifi card and flashed the modded BIOS from this thread. But when I press the power button, the harddisk starts but there only appears a blank screen. The backlight doesn't turn on, either. There is no error or a beep or something like that and I can't even reach the BIOS menu.
When I switch back to the old card, everything works fine. Do you have an idea what's happening here?
Thanks in advance,
Tim
Edit:
My machine is a Thinkpad x121e (AMD E-450) 3051-5YG.

Hey Tim,

The AMD version doesn't work with INTEL cards. There is an existing hardware conflict.
You can use RALINK etc. instead.

Hi!
I need a bootable disk image of this firmware to update it without any windows installed.. Also there is a new firmware version published by Lenovo: 1.16
Big thanks to all your work!
