MEA 1.19.0_x ? :-)

Thank you plutomaniac. That did the trick and cleaned the rest of it up. All is as you said it should be. Again, very much appreciated.

Hey everyone, I've got the same problem with a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro.

I'm just starting to troubleshoot this issue and am hoping before I do anything drastic that I could maybe get some guidance.

When I run fpt -d spi-bin I get the following:

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

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

From what I understand the next step, due to the ME write/read access being locked, is to boot in ME recovery mode. Is this correct?

Thanks @plutomaniac.

Unfortunately I attempted to update the BIOS with the latest patch from Lenovo and might have caused another issue. I'm stuck in some sort of loop that resets every 5 seconds. It does not make it to post, it just flashes the keyboard and resets. I'm going to do a bit more research on how to get past this issue then will continue with troubleshooting the ME issues.

So I've tried a few things and it looks like I've bricked the Yoga 2 Pro. I can't seem to get it to post at all. I'm going to remove the W25Q64 and throw the most up to date bios on it via an eeprom programmer.

Am I able to disable AT in the firmware from lenovo prior to programming?

Just ran through the Cleanup guide and encountered some issues.

First, the Bios I extracted from Lenovo's website, 76cn43ww throws an unrecognized error in FITC.

I noticed a few other users in this thread had the same laptops and so downloaded their backup bios' to use as a starting point since mine is currently bricked.
From here I'm able to get through to step 10 where I should see multiple BINs but only have the ME Region.bin. If I proceed with just replacing the ME Region.bin I'm able to build my outimage.bin. If I diff the two config files there are a few differences not documented in the Cleanup thread. I've attached the two config files and am wondering if subtle differences mean I've messed up the process somewhere or if they are okay.

Thanks for the help.

Hey, thanks @plutomaniac. I was able to dump that bios onto the w25q64bv with my programmer. The programmer verified it was there but the laptop did not respond well. It's still in a pre-post reboot cycle.

I'm going to retry in the next few days but am also researching what else the issue could be.

:(

Hello! There is a strange problem when i tried to clean me on Asus UX31LA
Laptop arrived with no picture, i flashed the dump from unternet, after that laptop started. But it starts after 15 sec black screen.
i decided to clean me, but me analyzer says that trere is no ME in my dump. FITC gives an error while opening dump.
Same situation with old dump (that i readed from chip before flashing dump from internet.

I didn't find other memory chips on this device, only one.

How can it be?

Thank you so much- this fixed my Yoga 2 issue. No more shutdowns after 30 minutes.
