Requesting HP ZBook 15u G3 6050A2892401-MB-A01 EC and Bios

[Zibbo]

I have a HP ZBook 15u G3 board number 6050A2892401-MB-A01 that will not turn ON. I was able to read the main bios but the EC bios chip is completely unreadable.
Does anyone have a matching file? Thank you

I have made some mistakes. I got the laptop for free and there was a password in the bios. So I tried my luck. I bought a CH341A and don't ask how. But I accidentally read the IC chip W25Q128JVIQ and made a backup of it and tried to unlock it. Then I realized that the password is not saved on it. I also have a backup of that.

I SOMEHOW damaged the other bios chip. It can't be read or written.
I then bought the same defective laptop for $20.
But I realized that the motherboard is not the same. I also got confused with the chip. I don't remember if it's a W25Q128JVPQ or a W25Q128FVPQ.

My guess is a W25Q128JVPQ.
Now I have soldered the W25Q64JVIQ back on. And loaded the bios from the other defective laptop onto the W25Q128JVPQ and also soldered it on. Now I have the problem that the laptop doesn't start anymore. CAPS Lock is on.
If I remove the battery, the laptop turns on, has a black screen, and the fan spins.

Laptop: zBook 15u G3
Mainboard: 839235-601
Bios Chip: W25Q128JVPQ
If someone has the same laptop. Is the Bios chip correct?

Post bios backup and serial number.

I have only the Bios Backup from the other Laptop.

My Mainboard: 839235-601
My Serial: 5CG8174XGV

The Laptop from the Backup has the Mainboard: 918325-601

Look on the motherboard for a part number similar or the same as 6050A2892401-MB-A01 ,post it.

Hello my friend,

Merged your posts with an existing thread topic

Can i use any Bios firmware that has the same motherboard?

[SMDFlea]

If its an intel board not without cleaning the ME firmware first, and your DMI info will be messed up and you`ll have to enter it all again using HP`s shitty DMI tools (unless it does a bios recovery and restores it itself). Try the bios posted by hoaca388

[Twsti]

Is it difficult or complicated to edit the DMI information? I am relatively familiar with software and everything. I can quickly familiarize myself with everything.

I also have an Intel. I'll try the BIOS above later. Thank you very much

[SMDFlea]

The HP DMI tools are relatively easy to use once you get used to using them but if its the first time then it can be a real headache.

[Twsti]

Do I need another program besides DMI Tools from HP?
