[Request] Unlock Bios Acer Aspire S7-391

[teddybear2]

Computer:
Aspire S7-391

BIOS Rev 3.7

The reason I want to get the "extra" settings is because I can’t change the raid setting (when I change it to AHCI, it changes back to RAID again?!?)+ I want to be able to change the efi settings, which I can’t at the moment.

When i try to use j-bios this is what i get:

Code:

claus@ubuntu:~/Desktop/j-bios$ sudo python j-bios.py isflash.bin newbios.bin [sudo] password for claus: Opened BIOS 'isflash.bin' with md5:3290683d3df569f418e2a928507ddd33 Operating on BIOS isflash.bin size = 0x4728c0 Locating Firmware Volumes Analysing Firmware Volume (may take a while!) uncompLen: 0xc00010 (12582928) Analysing Firmware Volume (may take a while!)

I managed to extract all the files inside the bin file. So i attached setuputility i found in the extracted tolder.

I have the same laptop and I am having the same problem as you guys. This is not yet solved.

Have you tried to ask directly to the developer? (Jakob Heinemann). I am thinking on sending an email if you haven't done that yet.

By the way, I was taking a look to the python error and I think that is because it didn't find anything for our bioses.

Another thing, did you figure out by other ways which is the Recovery Name of BIOS needed for USB-Method in Acer Aspire S7-391?

Best regards

Recovery name is StormX64.fd

I've made a mod with Menus unlocked to be flashed by recovery.

Sorry fjfc, I don't know which BIOS version have you modified. Is 2.18 revision or the one that teddybear2 posted (2.13)?

Do you mind doing Menus unlocked over the following release? This one is newer than the original one posted by teddybear2 with better fan control.

The 2.18 version link is the following:

By the way, thank you very much for your work.
