Re: BIOS Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15ARE05 (NM-C861)

thank you for the bios, there was a change but still no image, this must have a problem somewhere else, possibly cpu because the laptop was punched, the bios is probably good
thank you very much though

Lenovo ideapad 5-15ARE05 Laptop - Type 81YQ

Hi,
I used a CH341a to restore the BIOS for my Lenovo ideapad 5-15ARE05 after a failed update.

However I'm unable to restore information on the BIOS such as MTM, Lenovo SN, UUID Number, OS License and OA3 Key ID.

I would really appreciate your help with restoring this information please.

Attached are the the original dump backup I extracted before restoring the BIOS (IP5_DUMP_BK.zip) and the new file file used to restore the BIOS (BIOS_e7cn41ww.zip).

Thank you!

Regards,
Jose

I need some help as I'm trying to fix my IdeaPad 3 15ARE05. It just stopped turning on one day and I thought about a bad bios chip. I desoldered the chip and read it with my CH341A. I found this thread and used the files I found here to flash it onto my Winbond chip. Four tries at flashing the chip resulted in failed verify. Each failed was for a different location in memory. One flash didn't fail but when I read the chip and did a md5sum, they don't match.

To me it seems like a bad flash chip, unless I did something wrong. I'm using Linux Mint and the tool flashrom. It does detect the chip as a W25Q128.W and reading the chip physically does show it to be a 25Q128JWSQ. Only thing is Digikey and pretty much everywhere doesn't show this chip but other similar chips. I did find one Chinese source but I'm not a huge fan of waiting weeks to get my laptop working. Will any W25Q128 chip work or does it need to end with JWSQ?

Also the reason I thought the bios was bad because at first the laptop didn't work but unplugged the CMOS battery would get it working again. I did this multiple times until it just didn't work anymore. Doing a little research I heard this was a common problem for Lenovo. Supply chain issues maybe? Either I'm reading and writing to this chip incorrectly or I found the issue? Here's the terminal results.

Thanks, just ran NeoProgrammer and it says Verified. It verified twice. I flashed peste's bios that he uploaded. I'll solder the chip onto the board tomorrow and see if the laptop posts.
