Thanks, but I cannot set the a new password, as when I try to access the BIOS, it asks me for a password..

I wanted to reset this password altogether, so I can access my BIOS and set a new one =/
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Wootever:
[MENTION=3063289]r00tPT[/MENTION]

You can try to flash this default BIOS A06 Package, it will overwrite all device specific data (Serial, Windows Key, NVstore).

All settings should be set to default (including the password), but i haven't tested this (no guarantee and at your own risk).

Edit:

Don't forget to create a backup using the Backup.cmd file, it should be possible to restore the Serial number on the "empty" default BIOS.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] r00tPT:
Thank you, Wootever! I think it's worth a try.

Would it make sense to create the backup, flash the default package, confirm if there's no password and then flash back the original Xiaomi BIOS to restore the Serial number?

Sorry, as I have near to none experience related to bios. thanks once again
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Wootever:
[MENTION=3063289]r00tPT[/MENTION]

The backup includes all current settings (including the password), restoring it would also re-enable the password protection.

I made a little script to restore the device serial from the backup.bin file.

This is necessary because the Windows Activation seems linked with the device serial number.

Edit:

Updated the script.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] r00tPT:
Wouldn't it be best to make a backup of the current bios with a flash programmer? I still haven't done this, as I'm trying to figure out what password I put.. (I basically set a supervisor password when I disabled secure boot, but then when I tried to set a new blank password it didn't change it back)

I have a friend who has the exact same laptop. Would it be fine if I made a backup of his bios and restore it into mine?

Could there be an issue or some missing information? Probably only the device serial number, which I could write again using your script? Would that be feasible?

By the way, sorry for asking these questions here/to you, but it's hard to find some guidance regarding this topic. Thanks once again

2) do you have the default clean A07 bios (without the microcode and PWM changes)?

thank you!
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] bigorbi:
May I ask if there is an easy way to unlock BIOS totally on Xiaomi Air 13? Because previously I opened a topic about it in biosmods.com , someone reached to me and told that due to write protection it needs quoting from him: "Bios mod can be flashed using SPI-programmer+SOIC8 clip only". That requires opening laptop up and connecting clip on chip physically. I love to tinker things in my laptop but that is a bit scary for me. So is there another way to do it, anyone knows??
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] CARLiCiOUS:
THANK YOU!! This is pure gold! By the way, does the flag you found also unlock the ME region?

Update: nevermind. The answer is no unfortunately :(
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] CARLiCiOUS:
No, you can flash any bios mod with the flag found by [MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION]. However, you may want to get a programmer (Altera USB blaster has cheap Chinese clones supported by flashrom) and a SOIC8 clip anyway just in case. They're dirt cheap and allow for recovery when things go wrong.

As a bonus, an external programmer enables you to get rid of the management engine.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Wootever:
It might be possible if the variable for ME Image Re-Flash is set:

Me FW Image Re-Flash, Variable: 0xD08
Disabled, Value: 0x0 (default)
Enabled, Value: 0x1

Variable to unlock protected range register:

BIOS SPI Lock:, Variable: 0x258
Enabled, Value: 0x1 (default)
Disabled, Value: 0x0

Edit:

Here is another variable patcher that also enables the ME Re-Flash variable.

(Note: not tested, use with caution)
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] bigorbi:
Hi friend, will it be so much to ask of you if somehow you can make unlock mod for A07 BIOS? or can you explain me how to do?
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] CARLiCiOUS:
Tried it. When I read out the NVRAM on reboot the value at offset 0xd08 is reset to 0. So doesn't work, unfortunately. Would have been very surprised if that worked though.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] MindlessLeadership:
This variable seems to work on the Mi AIr 13 2017 (MX150) model too.

[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Wootever:
It's stored inside the VBT table, you can find and extract it with UEFITool.

Search for (non unicode):

vbt skylake

To edit the variables inside the table you can use Intel BMP. This program and more information can be found on win-raid.com

Unfortunately, the package is no longer available. If you just need to reset the device BIOS, you can also flash version A07 from the original post.

upd: never mind, found the solution myself

--------------------

Need help with PWM frequency. After updating to a07 bios, a terrible low Hz noise appeared. I could not stand with it and backed up to a06.

So the question is:

How can I change the PWM frequency myself in bios.bin?

And what is the default PWM frequency? Want to reset it.

Tnx

After updating to Bios A06 my fan was running non stop (i am not the only one http://en.miui.com/thread-1423909-1-1.html). This update helped me to solve this issue.

Method to change the fan control

Hi, I do have a Xiaomi Air 13 Fingerprint edition. The laptop is nice but the fan control is a total mess. There are no BIOS settings that control the fan speed :(. The laptop starts at 40 deg to make noise. So all the time.

Which is to be normal for that type. I am not a power user, I just want to change the bios settings in a way the fan starts around 45 deg, or change the fan control temperature function, or fake the temperature readings of the main board.

Is there a guide available for that?

Thx

issue when trying to update Windows 10 to 1803

Hello,

YES THANX a lot for the BIOS UPDATER to A07 on my Xiaomi Notebook Air 13.3 (2016)

But it is not enough for Windows to let me update from 1709 to 1803...

Last fall, i had to perform a clean install because it was unpossible to upgrade from 1703...

Having to reinstall all programs is really painstaking so i'm looking for a fix...

Here is the error; 0x800704b8-0x3001A

Installation messed in the FIRST_BOOT with an error with operator BEGIN_FIRST_BOOT.

Thanx for a nice working tip...

Hi there! I got Xiaomi Mi Notebook Pro with BIOS 502, which got awful fan control (kicks up on 40 degrees), ripped Intel XTU which was here before 5** BIOS and also I can hear coil whine which is maybe related to PWM variable. Can this BIOS be modded (unlocked advanced, XTU, changing variables) and flashed afterwards? The latest BIOS can be found here. Thanks!

UPD: Got variables list and H2OUVE dump, what was the method you found the bit that disables rewrite lock? How PowerShell script patching works, why it's HEX? It's really interesting for me and I would really appreciate if i'll see the answer. Thanks!

I'm working on eliminating PWM flicker for Xiaomi 13.3" 2017.

I've succeed with BIOS legacy mode, where there is no more flickering.

However I'm failing with UEFI native mode: after I edit GOP VBT, machine refuses to boot, so I'm forced to revert back these changes.

Here are the steps:

1. Open firmware in UEFITool

2. Search for "vbt skylake" non-unicode text

3. For unknown reason, there are FOUR matches with LegacyVideoRom, and SIX matches with IntelGopVbt, while there are should be only ONE for each (checked with ROM for 2016 model I've found on XDA)

4. For the above reason, I've dumped all four sections (Raw section - Extract body...)

5. I've downloaded IBMP and scripts from win-raid

6. I've looked at sections via hex editor: 3 of them have 1051 OROM version and 1 has 1050 OROM version. So i've used appropriate scripts from win-raid pack to edit all four of them, then adjusted PWM frequency for all modes in each file, and saved them

7. Replaced all four sections in UEFITool (Raw section - Replace body...)

8. Flashed the ROM and everything is fine, there is no more screen flicker but only in BIOS mode. To make it work in UEFI mode I've proceed with IntelGopVbt stuff

...

9. I've repeated actions 1-7, but working with six IntelGopVbt sections instead of four LegacyVideoRom sections. Here is the first thing I don't understand. What script should I use to modify them? I've used 1051 script for all them, despite they say 1001 OROM version. Flashed the ROM and boom there is no display and looks like machine is not even POSTed. So I've reverted back to previous ROM.

Please help!

3. Used 1050 OROM script to edit both sections in IBMP

The only thing I haven't done is a factory restart, because I have precious photos of my infant daughter on there that I cannot lose.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I think you mean "US model" as there is no AT&T UK model.

I think your main problem is that your firmware number (3.28.401.9) doesn't jive with your model ID (0P6B63000), therefore preventing any OTA updates, or RUUs from being run.

Is AT&T your carrier. And do you want the AT&T branded stock ROM, or no?
