    Lock manufacturing mode is HP by modifying binary file of BIOS

    hi guys,

    wasn't sure where to place this (BIOS requests or here).

    i know the software procedure to re-lock the manufacturing mode in Windows but is there some hex editing to the .bin file that would do that just before I flash a new .bin to the SPI?

    thank you in advance,
    george

      Need Clean BIOS/EC Bin File for Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e - Stuck with 0275 Error CMS

      Hello everyone,

      I am attempting a repair on a Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e that is currently stuck at boot with the error: "0275 error CMS" even after setup new bios battery and will not allow me to enter the BIOS/Setup.

      This is a critical issue that I believe requires flashing the BIOS chip directly using a programmer (e.g., CH341A/RT809H), as standard software updates or resets are not possible.

      I have opened the laptop and identified the main BIOS chip...

      NT955XED (Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro - 15.6) BIOS dump file Request
      by Citymin
      Hi all,

      My Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 15.6-inch laptop has no display and won't boot.
      The charging red LED lights up, but the charging screen doesn't show any indication.
      When I press the power button, the blue LED cycles on and off three times, then the screen doesn't turn on, and the device won't boot.
      (I've tried removing the battery and resetting the device, but the issue persists.)

      PCB model name : Venus2-15-5G(REV1.2), Venus2-15 ADL NPC

      Notice to users of XGecu TL866II Plus / T48 / T56 / T76 programmers regarding BIOS backup file size
      by m1ch43lzm
      Hi everyone
      I noticed on the Xgpro software the BIOS backup files have extra bytes at the end when reading some chips, this is because the Xgpro software also reads the OTP region of those flash chips, and by default will append that region to the saved file
      Programmer models: XGecu TL866II Plus / T48 / T56 / T76

      Example: GD25LQ128D (1.8V), IC size is listed as 0x1000000 Bytes (16777216 bytes) + 0xC00 bytes, those extra 0xC00 bytes will be appended to the end of the saved file by default, resulting in a file size of 16780288 bytes
      There's also an extra OTP Secu.R...

      HP Pavilion 15 bc400ns - Complete Black Screen - Only video on live usb
      by iZakre
      Hello everybody!

      To put you in context I recently replaced the battery from my HP Pavilion 15 bc400ns with a used one, everything was going good. The same day, I decided to update the BIOS, everything went good. The thing occurred after I let the battery drain iddling on Windows 11 for the second time to calibrate it that the screen did not turn on again, the computer was on but the screen did not turn, like it would not wake from hibernation. I decided to restart the computer but got no video.

      The thing is that I had installed TeamViewer and could log into the computer...

      Lenovo ThinkStation P520 BIOS file needed
      by Forest79
      Hello,

      I got a Lenovo ThinkStation P520 (Type 30BF) from a friend, asking me for a repair. Windows 11 offered a firmware upgrade as an optional update, and it failed.
      The emergency flash procedure from the hardware manual has also failed. So, I asked an acquaintance with better skills to flash the BIOS directly.

      However, the chip (a Macronix MX25L25673GMI-08G) has a size of 32 MB, and the BIOS file from the Lenovo website (extracted with UEFITool) has a little more than 16 MB. Thus, the software my acquaintance used (SiberiaProg v1.45, with a CH341A Programmer)...
