Full Version: [REQUEST] Dell XPS 15 L501x A08 Unlock
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Hello,

I would like to request an unlocked bios for the Dell XPS L501x A08. I know theres a unlocked A06 already but I want to play around with A08 since its the newest and I've read somewhere (may not be true) that in the A08 revision, they used a titano bios so UEFI can be possible.
I would preferably like someone to guide me through this process so I can do it in the future as right now I'm pretty stuck and have no idea how to edit the files.

What I'm looking for:
+unlocked/additional menus
+uefi boot (maybee?)

What I've done so far:
+unpackage bios
+located video card bioses
+change the voltages/clocks within the same vbios and repackage them/flash bios successfully.

What I'm working on/stuck on:
+Where to start unlocking menus.

Hi conscriptvirusx!

How did you manage to repackage the BIOS after altering the NVIDIA settings as I have been trying to do this for a couple of days now with no luck (Keep getting "File is 3 Bytes to big, Failed")

EDIT: You will find a PDF in post #6 of the following thread that should help you with unlocking menus ;-)

Hi,
Did you have any successfully for enable UEFI boot?
Bump.

Same want to know whether the A08 is compatable with UEFI.
