Insyde BIOS modding (dv4,dv5,dv6,dv7 at least)

Best place to get a modified BIOS or tools and knowledge to do it yourself:

My Digital Life Forums

 

Hello I was wondering if anyone can confirm some things for me.
I have a HP Pavilion DV7-3090ED which as far as I know has a PM55 chipset which supports raid right ?
The laptop has 2 harddisks and I was wondering if I could run them in a raid configuration with a modded bios, I need some extra disk performance and a SSD does not offer enough storage space for me.

I might give Windows 7 software raid a try, it seems to be on quite comparable with fake raid performance wise.

Hi every body!
I try to enabled "advanced menus" on my hp pavilion dv7 1210ef (the hp file is : ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45071.exe )
After googling, reading marcan's blog and this forum, I finaly get something but I'm still stuck near the end.

I've followed the sumup of the process made by Cavrac (he's my god! ) : http://forum.notebookreview.com/hp-...ing-dv4-dv5-dv6-dv7-least-23.html#post6592394

After some modifications (I'm on linux) I managed to get the setup.txt and main.txt files.
The problem is with vtenables.py :
It returns :

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "vtenable.py", line 88, in module
    raise ValueError("Invalid VSS signature")
ValueError: Invalid VSS signature

I've opened the file vtenables.py and found that it seems to be due to : "vss[:4] != "$VSS":" since vss=bin[VSS_OFFSET:VSS_OFFSET+VSS_SIZE], I supposed that there were something wrong with VSS_OFFSET and VSS_SIZE.

so I checked again my main.txt file and compared it with the one of Cavrac.
Here is my main file :

Code:

have vss_volume: FirmVol position=0x1c0000 size=0x00ffb8 where=None [VSS]
Creating variable at 0
Blah: 11 40 70 eb 02 14 d3 11 8e 77 00 a0 c9 69 72 3b
.../...
Creating variable at 6830
Blah: f4 27 4a a0 00 df 42 4d b5 52 39 51 13 02 11 3d
FirmVol position=0x1c0000 size=0x00ffb8 where=None [VSS]  VSSData len=42 size=0x3fb8
Variable status=0x7f size=0x004 name=MTC

Notes that my VSSData len is 42 ! So I tried to replace the VSSsize (0x3fb8) by 0xA7430 (which is 0x3fb8 x 42, if I didn't make mistake!). Of course I changed the VSSOfset :
since in the original vtenable.py (the one from marcan's blog) the data are :

Code:

VSS_OFFSET = 0x00180048 (firmvolposition+0x48)
VSS_SIZE = 0x4000 - 0x48 (=0x3fb8)

I tried this :

Code:

VSS_OFFSET = 0x1c4000-0xA7430 (firmvolposition+0x4000-VSS size)
VSS_SIZE = 0xA7430 (0x3fb8 x 42)

I still have the problem with vtenables.py. Indeed, I realise that 0x4000<0xA7430 !!!!! So there is something wrong in my calculation!

In marcan's blog, someone (FaithX) had the same error. I tried the lzma/fvdump/fsdump, but I don't know what to do with the .bin file, and I didn't find the end of the solution to FaithX Problem!

So please, If someone could help me with that thing, it would be really great!
Thanks

[EDIT] It's working fine now. I simply modified the main.py file : BIOS_SIZE = 1*MB (in place of BIOS_SIZE = 2*MB)
So now my VSS_OFFSET is the "normal" 0x0c0048" and the VSS_SIZE is 0x3fb8 (no matter that my vss len is 42 (or 53 today )
So I flashed the bios with the new value that is supposed to transform "boot menu" from "basic" to "advanced". And guess what!? Nothing happens
[\EDIT]

 

hi to everyone i'am trying to put the advance menu but Invalid VSS signature please can someone help

here is my MYBIOS.FD Multiupload.com - upload your files to multiple file hosting sites!

 

Hi! cnkostas, instead of ''Mybios'' can you give more info about your Laptop ?
and direct ftp link HP about it. some are allready done yet, for example :
this HP Bios, Slic 2.1 in it and WLAN/WWANwhitelist check totally removed ... see there :

Hi cnkostas,
I had the same probleme as you with a "invalid VSS signature". Did you try what I explain in the EDIT of my message? : "I simply modified the main.py file : BIOS_SIZE = 1*MB (in place of BIOS_SIZE = 2*MB)"
As you can notice, your fd file (3069F23.fd) is only 1MB, not 2MB!

 

yes is 1mb but i get the invalid VSS signature error maybe because my bios is insydeh20 bios.can you try to mode my bios maybe i do mistakes thats mine main.txt http://www.multiupload.com/RMEP497WBJ

 

even if you change the main.py file you have an invalid VSS signature??

I see in your main.txt this line :
FirmVol position=0x0d0000 size=0x007fb8 where=None [VSS] VSSData len=1 size=0x1fb8

It's mean that your VSS_SIZE is 0x1fb8
and your VCC_OFFSET is 0x0d0000+0x48
So did you put these values in your vtenable.py file?

Code:

VSS_OFFSET = 0x0d0048 
VSS_SIZE = 0x1fb8

 

ok with these values where find these
PATCH_OFFSET = ?
PATCH_VALUE = ?

here is my setup.txt http://www.multiupload.com/Q0SKSN0BT4

 

line 222, you have this:

Code:

    One Of [0x7b<1>] 'Normal Boot Menu'
     Option 'Normal' = 0x0 Flags 0x5 Key 0x5b
     Option 'Advance' = 0x1 Flags 0x4 Key 0x5b
    End One Of

Since you want the advanced menu, it means that the offset you are looking for is 0x7b and the value is 0x1 !

Could somebody explain what are these "flags" and "keys" ?

 

vtenable.py

VSS_OFFSET = 0x0d0048
VSS_SIZE = 0x1fb8

PATCH_OFFSET = 0x7b
PATCH_VALUE = 0x1
PATCH_VARIABLE = u"Setup"

cmd..........
C:\Python>python vtenable.py mybios.fd mybios2.fd >> patch.txt

Hey,

I just stumbled upon this great thread. Unfortunately I am much to afraid to just start playing around with my BIOS. Anyway, I have a DV5 1140eg with a p7350. Since I have to replace the fan I am thinking about also replacing the cpu. Would it be possible to change the BIOS such that a q9000 would be recognized?

Many thanks in advance.

 

Is anyone here capable of writing a python script to get me my Advanced Bios menu on my DV7T-4100 CTO. It would seem HP is never going to give me a bios update that gives me access and I would really like to be able to get rid of this gimpy hybrid graphics as soon as possible.

 

hey guys, long time since i was here last time. i see that you did something since then.. i have some troubles with my bios these days. i need to switch my HDDs from AHCI to IDE mode and god isn't on my side in that one. am i hopeless or there is a way to manually mod that option and make it working? i can't install almost anything except win7 and some linuxes, but i don't need them. i need aros since i have to do something for good old amiga but for that i need IDE.

 

anyone active on this thread? at all?

Hi,
I'm new to the idea of BIOS modding but I just had a quick question about the F.21 on my DV5. I'm about to upgrade my p8600 to an intel t9900 as soon as it arrives in the mail. Now since many of the other models close to the t9900 are supported i'm crossing my fingers that it is as well... I was wondering is there any way to check in the BIOS before I open the package? Also if it isn't supported is there any way to add it?

 

Hello guys, I'm new here and I need assistance please.

Is it possible to enable the hidden menu in my HP Pavilion dv5 1126em? It has Insyde BIOS, and I want to enable the hidden menu in the BIOS but I don't know how.

My purpose for doing that is to disable the Firewire and to switch from IDE to AHCI.

Thanks in advance.


Regards,
Vundo

Don't hold your breath on it getting done today or at all. You might get better results and a better understanding of locked bios from these two sites and post your request there as well.

Good Luck

i just updated the bios from F0.7 to the latest one F.1A, the fan noise is horrible,can't stand it =( is anyway to change this from bios? i already disabled in bios the option fan always on, any help will be really apreciated thanks in advance

I would love some info on how to unlock the BIOS settings....like AHCI,ACPI amd al these lockdowns by design....

is there any bios hack for dv7-1150ev?

Thank you.

 

I also just updated from the stock bios (F0.7 I believe) to F.1A, but do not have the fan noise issue. The fan runs exactly the same as before.

 

Hiya guys! =D

Is there any way to unlock my HP Pavilion DV7-3197eo BIOS? My BIOS version is F.1D, i updated it through HP website.

I want to change IDE to AHCI because i'm gonna buy SSD hard disk.

Thanx for advance!

 

My DV6-6128ca is set to AHCI by default. I think pretty much all of the newer notebooks are set that way by default as well.

 

I can't be sure if my laptop is set to AHCI by default too, i can't find those settings in my BIOS because HP has locked it.

 

- Go to start and in the search box type in regedit.
- Hit enter
- Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/Msahci
- Look at "start" in the right pane. If there is a bracketed (0) at the end of the sting, then it's already activated and you're good to go.

You can check to make sure trim is working by...

Go to the Command prompt and type > fsutil behavior query disabledeletenotify

DisableDeleteNotify = 1 (Windows TRIM commands are disabled)
DisableDeleteNotify = 0 (Windows TRIM commands are enabled)

 

It was set to "0" in registry

When i tried that Command Prompt thing it gave me this: ( i don't have SSD yet )

 

Don't worry....Command Prompt works as it should, i just wrote behavior word wrong....HAHAHAHAHAH!! "DisableDeleteNotify" was set to "0"

 

Thank you're good to go!

 

Maybe you can try this:
I discovered that i can access to the advanced bios menu without patching the bios, the method is when accessing the bios and it says "F10 pressed, loading setup" or something like that, you press and hold the "A" key and when the bios setup loads (you'll hear a lot of beeps, dont worry) you'll see the advanced menu

 

This method didn't work, i tried it 5 times, it only keeps beeping and nothing happens, so i had to shutdown my computer via power button.

 

Didn't work for my dv6t either

 

Didn't work on my dv7t either. Damn I would really like a modded bios for this dv7t-4100 so I can disable hybrid graphics but I've had no luck either here or on mydigitallife in obtaining a modded bios to disable hybrid or access the advanced bios menu.

 

Hello there,

maybe you can help me out here with a notebook not from HP? I already asked this question in the Acer forum, but they told me, they would not support the Insyde bios

I have got an Acer TravelMate 5742G notebook with dedivated Nvidia graphis card.
Unfortunately Acer has hidden the "Display Mode" option in the Bios, so it is impossible to switch between the integrated Intel IGP and the dedicated Nvidia GPU.
Could anyone of the experts here around this board help me out by unlocking this (and if possible some other hidden features)?

Here is the download-link for that Bios:
http://global-download.acer.com/GDF...p1=Notebook&Step2=TravelMate&Step3=TravelMate 5742G&OS=721&LC=de&BC=Acer&SC=EMEA_8

I am very thankful for any help I can get!

Thanks in advance,
Chris

 

Please patch my bios :

unlock the hidden advanced menus in insyde bios.

HP Pavilion dv6-3160us
-Motherboard Manufacturer and Model : Hewlett-Packard HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC , AMD M785, AMD K10
-Bios Revision :F.13
-Bios Type :insyde
-Bios SLIC :
-Bios Link : HP Notebook System BIOS Update (AMD Processors) HP Pavilion dv6-3160us Entertainment Notebook PC - HP Customer Care (United States - English)

i want to have the advanced menus for sata to configure it to AHCI

 

Why do you want to do that? AHCI should be enabled by default already and
disabling it only makes sense if you want to install Windows ME [or 98] as your primary OS?

 

I really needa patched bios for my HP Pavilion DV7-3197eo laptop so i can enable AHCI.

Please...i'm begging you guys!
