OK, see, more confusion then. Please upload images from both BIOS. Your're posts are VERY confusing! If above images are "Pure Original BIOS" then that would be ES 730 BIOS, yet you say it's not and it's 830 BIOS
J50xxx makes it even more confusing, I am not looking back to try and decipher all this. All BIOS discussed here by me are one of two things, 730 ES BIOS, and 830 retail BIOS, that's all I'm considering and discussing here.

Please just do this, I'm not downloading any previous BIOS images form anything above. Please flash back original ES BIOS as it was when you purchased this system, then take all new BIOS images of all pages.
Then do same with 830 BIOS, then put all these images into separate 730/830 folders, put that in a new archive. Then I can look and compare.

You've still not explained to me what you meant with "BIOS menu is trimmed'? This is very confusing, especially now that you are saying both menus are the same.
Never mind, just answer and explain this to me, then I probably don't need to see 730 BIOS anyway. I will unlock all BIOS menus anyway, so I guess I don't need to see 730 BIOS due to this, only wanted to so I could compare based on your "Trimmed" Comment.

Gallery of BIOS images at 24 and 26 do not match, so these are not the same BIOS. That's what I meant, you're confusing things too I think
I assume this is ES 730 BIOS images due to "Chipset" menu is visble

And this is 830 Retail BIOS images

Here's my findings from comparing the 7KB VBT from 730 and 830. I'm pretty sure if I make these same changes, or just swap out these files, then your displays will all work properly again.
I'm unsure how or if the retail BIOS containing an actual 64KB vBIOS vs the ES 730 BIOS not containing this, affects any of these things. It may need removed, or edited itself, but there is no 730 ES vBIOS to compare/swap settings from, so this is an issue

This normal 64KB vBIOS contains much of the same settings as the 6KB VBT files, but some I can tell contain settings at hex code entries that the 6KB VBT's, so unsure what all should be set/changed etc.
Mainly this is at Boot Display Algorithm's (Devices attached, Primary Display, Secondary), very different than what's set in the 6KB files

Based on this comment today by SoniX - I think we should probably directly swap back in the 730 GOP, since we cannot modify this file in the same ways we can VBT/vBIOS
[Guide] Transfer of specific Intel VBIOS settings by using Intels BMP tool (19)

Compare 6KB VBT between SPI (730 BIOS) and 830 mod from Plutomaniac (retail BIOS)

Differences at VBT1 - Platform = Broxton
Supported LFP Type - 730 BIOS = eDP / 830 BIOS = No LFP

LFP Config - Active LFP Config - 730 BIOS = eDP (LFP driven by Int-displayport encoder) / 830 BIOS = No Local Flat Panel

Integrated Displayport/HDMI Config w/ External Connectors
Device #1 - Selected Device Type - 730 BIOS = Integrated HDMI/DVI / 830 BIOS = Integrated Displayport with HDMI/DVI Compatible
Output port - 730 BIOS = HDMI-B / 830 BIOS Displayport-B

Modes removal table -
No entries at 730 BIOS / 830 BIOS has 4x entries for 2160x3840 = 2x with different refresh rates and removal flags + 2 other same

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

Differences at VBT2 - Platform = Broxton
No differences in BMP, or hex

What I mean trimmed menu is comparing to the original BIOS menu. XC-730 and X830 BIOS menu looks similar, and they are retail BIOS. I should use the word hidden menu in case any confusion. Is it posssible to unblock the retail BIOS menu? With the XC-730 sometimes, unplug and plug the RTC battery, I can see a detailed BIOS menu similar to the original J5005ES BIOS menu shows up, but after reboot it comes back to the hidden BIOS mode, this only happened with XC-730. So I think it is possible to unlock the hidden BIOS menu.

I will upload XC-730 BIOS and BIOS menu snapshot, XC830 mod BIOS snapshot today to clear your mind.

---------------------------------
In case you messed up, I have put all the BIOS dumps and BIOS menu snapshots in one post below. And you should view the BIOS menu snapshots with the sorted by modified date option. I took snapshot every step.

@wizbee - Please do not make me edit and combine your posts again! If you want to add more info and no one has replied yet, use the edit button

You are still very confusing. You just said, in your very first sentence, the menu is trimmed (ie some hidden), then you said both BIOS look = same/same. They are not, that is easy to see by looking at one image from each BIOS.
This is what I was trying to ask you to confirm/explain, but you kept saying they are same, look same, and then next sentence you said not same/trimmed/less etc.

In the end, it does not matter to me which BIOS showed what, I can unlock everything, in full, probably more than your original hidden menu.
But, in order to get every single setting you could originally see, and then the rest that was hidden from you in all BIOS, I need images of both BIOS, all pages, in separate folders per 730 and 830

I do not need any BIOS files (already have them), I only need the images I asked for, clarified exactly what I wanted above. I need this, and only this, in one package please ^^ (Please do, and don't add anything else or I'll loose my sanity )

This is wrong >> FYI the two XC-830 BIOS mods that made by plutomanic are not from Acer retail BIOS. << Plutomaniac said >> R01B0_MOD.bin --> The PRD "R01-B0.bin" SPI image << This is Acer Retail BIOS, rest of what he did or said there does not matter to what we are discussing here

FYI XC-730 is powered by J4205, XC-830 uses J5005, mine uses J5005ES. J4205 and J5005 uses different GPU, but J5005 and J5505ES uses the same GPU. I already packed their BIOS menu in one archive. Extract the archive will generate three folder represent each BIOS menu. I mean the XC-830 and XC-730 BIOS menu looks alike, but they are very different from my J5005ES(Original) which has way more options and sub-menus. You probably misunderstood me again.

You mentioned 24 26 not match, I do not understand. Can you give me the two links of each image? I will check. I can assure you I uploaded one BIOS at a time, so it is impossible to include another model BIOS menu.

Three BIOS Menus? We should only have two here, why is this so confusing, or why are you making it more confusing that it needs to be. J5005ES is unrelated to anything here (whatever that is), we are talking 730 and 830 only. No, I didn't misunderstand
I assume this is CPU's maybe >> J5005ES, J4205 etc - If yes, this is irrelevant to the discussion, doesn't matter for anything here, other than microcode updates, which we're not discussing right now. If you discuss this due to the GPU in CPU, I am considering that, hence the graphics info I discussed above.
What your system came with originally (CPU-wise) and BIOS-wise is all that matters here, for that J5005/ES = same and your 730 BIOS originally works with that CPU's GPU, thus so can the 830 retail, but the vBIOS/VBT needs switched from original to 830 BIOS now since the config/layout is different.
If those are not CPU's, what is it, and why are you using that in relation to or instead of 730/830 (that's all we're talking here)

I am on limited internet, and only need specific things to do what I wanted to do to help you with the BIOS Menu unlocking, this is why I asked many times for a specific download.. Still waiting now it seems.
I need all BIOS pages, and only this >> Images of BIOS from 730 + Images of BIOS from 830, in one single archive with 730/830 in separate folders.

On Post #24 and #26, sure, see page one, post #24 gallery link, and post #26 gallery link

My motherboard is powered by J5005ES which I called original. XC-830 is similar to my original J5005ES motherboard, so I asked plutomanic to use it as mod base. I have already uploaded three of these BIOS menu as your request. XC-730 uses J4205 CPU, XC-830 uses J5005, my original uses J5005ES. I have XC-730 but not XC-830, I can only use the XC-830 mod BIOS on my original mb to take snapshot for you, which I did. Any confusion left?

XC-830 MOD and XC730 BIOS menu pack linked below.
https://upload.cat/d2140b9be97e1223

For post #24, the snapshots is XC-830 MOD BIOS menu. For post #26, it is original (J5005ES) or factory BIOS menu.
Forget about post #24 and #26, I have already included these in my lately upload. You can identify them from System BIOS label of each BIOS menu. For example, the XC-830 MOD BIOS labels R01-B0, while XC-730 labels R01-B1. Original BIOS which is not retail so no such label.

Original BIOS of J5005ES

I'm pretty sure J5005ES is not a power supply, please stop making this so confusing! And, as I mentioned, CPU has nothing to do with any of this.

As I mentioned, and I assume you confirmed, BIOS images from galleries at post #24 and #26 are not same. Still very confusing here, CPU Jxxxxx has nothing to do with any of this, please stop mentioning that, thank you
All you are seeing there with J5005ES is ES BIOS (partially, or fully/near fully unlocked vs retail/normal BIOS where things are hidden from user). I will make everything visible to you.

Please program the original ES BIOS Back into the board and give me images of that BIOS as you originally wanted final BIOS here to be more like that, CPU you use does not matter to me or this at all
The images you have uploaded in the 730/830 are same retail "Trimmed" BIOS you don't want, and that I don't need to see really, only needed one set like that to compare with your original 730 BIOS (Which I still am waiting on images from now )
Yes, I know there is some slight differences between them, but I assume this was not your concern vs the major differences in the unlocked ES BIOS vs whatever retail you are using now. This is my goal, see what was originally visible to you on the ES BIOS, and unlock the rest on a final for you.

Then, after that, we can get into trying to sort out the VGA issues if possible.

This is original BIOS menu looks like. I have already uploaded earlier. It is original J5005ES BIOS the one that is not modified, and it is not XC-730. XC-730 is J4205 based build. I have told you before.
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil...244639256374931
Pls read my comments above carefully. It seems like you have some problem to understand what I am saying.
Do you have trouble downloading my BIOS menu pack uploaded earlier?
I have only J5005ES and XC-730 MBs, I do not have XC-830. The XC-830 mod BIOS was moddified to adapt the J5005ES, which was made by plutomanic. You probably think I have XC-830, but I do not. The XC-830 mod BIOS menu I uploaded earlier is running on J5005ES motherboard. And the menu is similar to XC-730, except the system version ID and processor name. So three BIOS menu for two motherboards, J5005ES has a original BIOS and a XC-830 mod BIOS. The XC-730 BIOS is unrelated until you asked me to upload for your MAC ID research.

Again, this >>> J5005ES << Has NOTHING to do with BIOS contents, please stop referring to things like that, it's very confusing. Your now again mention of J4205 adds to this confusion.
BIOS does not care what CPU is there, neither do I. I simply want images from the original ES BIOS on this system, the good one, the one you think all others are trimmed/less than.
CPU being used during these images do not matter to me or the process of taking the images at all.

No, no problems with your image package from post #36, those are just both same BIOS (ie both retail 730/830 BIOS), and not the ES 730 BIOS images I wanted additionally
You are confused is the issue here, due to you keep referring to systems or "powered by" a CPU Jxxxxx when this does not matter at all to what I am asking from you. Wow, we sound like bickering wives to others I bet
Yes, I agree, I don't specifically need to see 730 BIOS, all I wanted was original BIOS images from the ES BIOS that was originally on this system, that you said had more options etc (ie not the trimmed type)
Sorry for asking for 730 retail BIOS images before, if I did, I didn't mean to as I only need to see retail (trimmed) vs ES (original, not trimmed menu), but your posts and description methods have me lost every time the instant I look at them

* edit - thanks, that was the missing image package I wanted!

sole original ES BIOS menu can be downloaded from below link.

The original ES BIOS menu start with this.

Yes, thanks, I grabbed it from post #38 already, maybe you missed my edit

Working on BIOS for you now

* Edit - @wizbee - Here, need a quick initial test before major edits are done. *** May cause a bricked BIOS, please be ready for recovery!
If no changes that's OK, valid test result, if brick that is not good and what I needed to see before moving forward. This BIOS is configured oddly, so need to check this out first
The original BIOS is not configured in this manner, it's normal AMI type BIOS menu configuration and I could unlock it easily with a few changes, this one is not like any others in regards to the menus so I need to have you do some tests before I can move forward with other tests I'll have you do before full unlock.

http://www.filedropper.com/test1_2

I will try this BIOS and report.

Just flashed and boot. But it shows Flash update failed and keeps rebooting loop.
With this BIOS VGA output shows no signal and HDMI output only works on my HDTV not monitor, with HDMI monitor no signal. EDID not found?

@wizbee - Thanks, no need to test/try anything other than what I mentioned. And sorry, now I see I forgot to mention goal of this test! Additionally, you never flashed this BIOS in, so any test/info you did would only be info from the BIOS you are using before this (Since it looks to have not flashed)
This is only a menu change test, look at BIOS, does main menu sections look same, or more/less, or does BIOS brick. I have not made edits to try and make anything new visible yet, this is only to test if removing a certain block I see works, or bricks.
Nothing else changed other than something I'm testing in regards to menus, no need to test display or if anything else changed etc, only what I mentioned, then put back working BIOS.
Here is next test of edit of same blocking area, but w/ different changes. I only need to know if you see more or less main menu sections, or does BIOS brick Be ready to recover with programmer, and have a known good backup ready!
http://www.filedropper.com/test2_1

Also, if the above tests fails in same way, leaves you at that same update failed screen, this may mean you can't flash mod BIOS in this manner.
If this is the case, you will need to send me dump from working system with programmer, then I will apply these same two edits to two new files for you to program in, to do these tests, instead of flashing.

After this test above, next we will test switching some of the menus I see blocked here, to confirm if these are blocks or not, then after that I will give you some normal menu edits to see if those are working or not

Normal BIOS dump of original BIOS linked below.
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fil...334709220641306
I uploaded this a few days ago. In case you missed.

P.S.
I tried the mod BIOSes created by plutomanic and they all boot OK. He used the XC-830 R1-B0 version as modding base. What about yours uploaded above? I mentioned using normal original BIOS as modding base. In that case, you only need to update the CPU microcode, NVME driver, GOP, Realtek LAN driver, etc. This should be easier.

Yes, I have plenty of dumps from you now Yes, what you mention about Plutomaniac is same BIOS I am using here (R01B0_MOD.bin)
I'm not doing any of the edits you mentioned right now, as I mentioned above. Yes, those things are much easier to do, so I'm not worried about those things right now. And by the way, this BIOS is already NVME compatible by default, and you only need Realtek PXE updated if you use Wake on LAN or Boot to LAN
I have no problem editing any of the stuff you mentioned, and usually do not with BIOS menus either, but this menu is odd, so I consider it the hard part here, that is why I'm starting there. After that, module updates, and then after that try to sort GOP/VBIOS issues for you.
