Hi Everyone!

I've Y510P and i dump bios using Intel FPT Tool (probably latest version 9.5.1.1458). I mod (remove whitelist) BIOS 3.05 (without Windows Key, i have no OS version) with EZH20 Tool (Option - "Removed module" -> 11D378C2-B472-412F-AD87-1BE4CD8B33A6). But when i try to flash with the same tool that i make dump Intel FPT Tool and i have error -> Error 280: Failed to disable write protection for the BIOS space!

I enable/disable option Flash Back in BIOS but flash is still without sucess :-/

Sorry for my english and i hope that can someone help me frown.png.pagespeed.ce.k7JIVwiiFa.png

@svl7 - maybe you can up to date the prr2?? I must replace the 2230 to 7260AC because of wireless range in my house :-/

Maybe Y510P have a function of recovery bios (the recovery file must be name Yx01.bi) but i don't know that i can use the dump from FPT Tool or i must use the FULL ROM with EC and MEI and which combination of keyboard button launch this recovery mode.

Hi!

I have found one chance to replace the WiFi in our y510p. In hardware maintenance manual (official from Lenovo) are list of compatible adapters with FRU from Lenovo.

Hardware Maintenance Manual - IdeaPad Y410p, Y510p

There are three cards with 2x2 antenna:

BCM4352 AC

BCM4322 Dual Band

AR9462 (aka WB222)

I'm call to Lenovo Support in Poland without success (they say bla bla bla)

Then i'm call to authorized repair center RAMSERWIS.PL in Warsaw and they told me that:

BCM4352 AC it's not available now and don't know that card will available.

BCM4322 Dual Band it's possible to order (2-4 weeks) - price 285PLN -> 92$ it's very expensive but it's work

AR9462 (aka WB222) it's possible to order (2-4 weeks) - price 285PLN -> 92$ it's very expensive but it's work

Above adapters have the same FRU like FRU in hardware maintenance manual :D

Probably i order one of them and i forget about bios mod 3.05 because probably it isn't possible to flash with flash protect.

What if there were a way to enter this into the whitelist, rather than eliminate it. It would at least let users use the Lenovo Intel 7260+BT4.0 card, Lenovo FRU: 04W3814

Easy card to buy and not very expensive.

Below is the hardware info from device manager in windows 8:

Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_08B2&SUBSYS_42708086&REV_4B

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_08B2&SUBSYS_42708086

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_08B2&CC_028000

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_08B2&CC_0280
