[UEFIPatch] UEFI patching utility

dragonmel · April 13, 2016

thanks.. I think that the intel s5520 uses an unsigned AMI bios.. at least that is what I have heard.. so how would one go about it ... I have found hfsplus-64.efi file.. and I have downloaded the latest intel efi/uefi bios and recovery bios files...

thanks... I kind of need a walkthrough as I am new at this and dont want to brick anything!!

Try ti open dowloaded BIOS with uefitool,if it open whitout warning about security signing you can mod BIOS

Arise, you are right. I will now show you and others how UEFITool can be handy for such mods.

It will be automated there someday, but right now, here is the guide:

1. Download latest version of UEFITool from here.

2. Open your BIOS file. If it fails to open, check it for being UEFI BIOS. Legacy ones are not supported.

3. Select "File->Search..." (or press Ctrl+F) and enter "75080FBAE80F89442430" as hex pattern, set search scope to "Body only".

4. Look for "Hex pattern found" string in Messages field, double-click on it to select found section. If not found - you have nonstandard BIOS that needs to be studied further, please upload it here.

5. Press RMB on found section and select "Extract body..." action. "Save file..." dialog will open, enter the name of file to save, for example, "pm.bin", and press Save.

6. Open saved file with hex editor, find that "75080FBAE80F89442430" pattern once again, replace 75 to EB and save modified file.

7. Select the same section you have found in step 4, press RMB and select "Replace body..." action. Select your modified "pm.bin" file in "Open file..." dialog, that will open and press Open. Old section will be marked "Remove", and another section marked "Replace" will be added after it.

8. Select "File->Save image file..." (or press Ctrl+S) and save your modified BIOS.

9. Reopen the saved file to see that it opens correctly.

10. Flash the result with any suitable method.

---

This guide can be followed for any particular patch pattern, but have in mind that UEFITool is still in early beta stages and it can produce corrupt BIOS images.

Try them on your own risk, but please, try it. Without testing it's very hard to develop something useful, and my testing possibilities are very limited.

But, if you have any working recovery solutions, you can test UEFITool-made mods.

Let's make it better together.

75080FBAE80F89442430 it's for anyone or not?

If anyone can patch for me...

Thanks!

Broadwell-E users, please try out new (yet untested) patch for BDW-E from here and post your results. Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

today I've joined Apple to work on low-level security and other firmware-related stuff, and this means I can't support OSS tools nor answer any questions. Please move myself to "retired developers" group.

I want to thank all members if IM community for your help and testing during UEFIPatch development and hope the tool served you well.

So long, and thanks for all the fish.

Best regards,

CodeRush

How to Enable this?

Thank you.

to write MSRs you must disable reboot_fix patch, and if used the okrasit performance fix.

And test with USB stick or 2nd HDD.

If your system don´t boot, you must find and disable the MSRs which causes problems.

And you also can check the idle stat of your CPU https://pikeralpha.wordpress.com/2016/08/12/xcpm-screenshots-of-i7-6850k/comment-page-1/#comment-6809

i think your bios is unlocked.

Clover would log it with "bios is locked, PM patch applied....."

I patched my ASUS bios with UEFI Tool and get this log

Could you elaborate how you patched your BIOS?

Also, would you mind sharing your BIOS?

UEFITool can't parse my .cap file correctly, I think...

Currently using 3103 on X99 Deluxe.

Thanks!

Using this is your own risk!

Here you go, patched BIOS 3202 Asus X99 Deluxe.

Unzip and copy to USB stick - then use Bios-Flashback

EDIT: Bios ver. 3301

X99D.CAP.zip
