Re: How to extract and edit a Lenovo Phoenix TDK Bios

Is there a list for what models get cut where or how can I know?

I have a X1 Carbon 5th Gen (.FLA1, .FLA2 Update Files For the Bios And EC).
Where do i trim, and how is the EC update done?

Currently I get powering on issues and on a boot "ME FW Downgrade - Request MeSpiLock Failed" cause I need to apply latest update?

Off-topic,but it can be done the same way by hex editing.Maybe someone else will post a guide/tutorial.

Just a sidenote: Some other phoenix bios headers need cutting from 0-1E7 (length 1E8),after selecting the bios/bios update length check the last hex line of your backup to make sure it matches.

NEW SIDENOTE:Some newer phoenix bios headers need cutting from 0-31F (Length 320)

This thread topic is for the "Lenovo Phoenix TDK Bios" only.

Extracting HP and Dell bios updates are mentioned throughout the bios requests threads

We do have a sticky thread called "BIOS guides, methods, resources and tools"

https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showpo...45&postcount=8

If other members can make some guides we will gladly add them to the sticky thread. Myself and piernov can`t do everything ourselves.

If using thinkpad self extracting exe file, like "Thinkpad BIOS Update Utility", then this utility extract some file like *.fl1,*.fl2 files; then how cut and grap the bios blocks?

Re: How to extract and edit a Lenovo Phoenix TDK Bios

Back about this great tutorial , for intel models and if the bios.cap was crypted , is there any solution or soft to decrypted !

The Lenovo bios.cap files aren't crypted, they just have a capsule header. The guide is only for phoenix TDK packed bios'es.
