Hello,
I tried to unlock the BIOS in my notebook, but I'm stuck on "change the bits in hexeditor" part of the fun.
What I did:
-Read BIOS with AFUWINGUI 3.07 -> backup.rom
-Opened the .rom file with AMIBCP 4.53 and set the stuff I want to be visible to "USER"
(Now, here is the first worrying thing:

The menu is not just hidden, its in fact some other Samsung-like menu, located near the original one)
-Opened the .rom file with MMTool 4.50.0.23
-Found the C7 Index with filename "Setup" and copied its GUID:
899407D7-99FE-43D8-9A21-79EC328CAC21
-Opened .rom file with UEFITool NE Alpha32
-Found the GUID in file and extracted it as-is to Setup.ffs
-Opened the Setup.ffs in HexWorkshop, but I can't find anything corresponding to the magical:
01 01 00 01 01 01 numbers, or anything near it (neither zeroes, or I think any combination)
And so, here I am, stuck trying to mod my bios.
Notebook specs:
SAMSUNG NP350V5C-S08PL
P09ABE.012.CP
123490EN400015
Eureka
From BIOS Features tab in AMIBCP:
BIOS Date: 07/04/2013 00:00:00 Ver: 1APTJ (although the BIOS Information, and the info in bios itself says its P09ABE)
BIOS TAG: 1APTJ022
I'm attaching original .rom file, modded (with USER settings) .rom file and Setup.ffs in case anyone needs it to help me.
