Hi there,
 
I have a X230 tablet ThinkPad and have been trying to get it to work with my WWAN andwifi cards and enable advanced menu, but I have not been very successful. It just starts with a black screen when I flash the bios I attempted to mod myself..

I am using a CH341A Pro usb module to read/write the bios.

I have already applied the battery whitelist EC patch before creating this dump.

I would like these modifications to the BIOS:
-          Whitelist removal for WiFi / WWAN / BT
-          Advanced BIOS menu
-          CPU Over/underclock / CPU Voltage control // CPU Multiplier (Not sure if these are possible to add or not?)
-          eGPU 16GB RAM fix

My machine specifics:
 -   UEFI Bios Version: GCETB3WW (2.73)
 -   Embedded Controller Version: GCHT25WW (1.14)
 -   Machine Type Model: 34352TU

Would somebody mind  helping me with this please? Many thanks.

Dudu2002 helped me with this already, thank you!

Hi there!

First time attempt at this kinda thing. I just dumped the 4M chip of my x230T.

Looking for whitelist removal and advanced menu, though I'm not sure what other options I have - my end goal is a Hackintosh/Linux dual-boot,
if that factors into anything.

Machine specifics:
- UEFI BIOS: GCETA0WW (2.60)
- EC version: GCHT25WW (1.14)
- Type 3437-27U




Not sure if I should/need to update these or not.
If I need to provide anything else, just let me know.


Thanks in advance!

Hi
Need your bios dump
A new software-only method for flashing a modified BIOS on the X230 Tablet and other Ivy Bridge ThinkPad models is now available here:

https://github.com/n4ru/1vyrain/

The process is well-documented and very simple - no external programmer necessary.

Just did this on my X230 and didn't experience any trouble at all.

Hello, Dudu2002!

I'd like to request a BIOS mod for my Thinkpad X230i tablet. The BIOS version is GCET97WW (2.57).
Embedded Controller Version: GCHT24WW


I'd like the following features, please:

* Whitelist removal: batteries + WiFi adapters + WWAN adapters
* 'Advanced' menu enablement


link to bios dump:
https://www.sendspace.com/file/3k802c


the most important for me is to remove battery whitelist if any additional features could be done it would be sweet
if not removing only the battery whitelist would make me happy anyway

Pretty please and thank you!
