Intel ME 11.0 Consumer PCH-H Firmware v11.0.12.1008

Note: Version Control Number (VCN) was increased to 15. No downgrade via FWUpdate possible after updating.

MEA: 11.0.12.1008_CON_H_XX_PRD_RGN_49ED162DB0782256B26C9BC61049E3090B0CEEB1_SHA1

Thanks to Pacman/SD for the newer firmware.

@ kaptanedi:

The SPI has regions such as Flash Descriptor, ME, GbE, BIOS etc. BIOS is just one of it's regions. We tend to say that SPI=BIOS but that's not the case. It's just a way to not confuse those who don't know. So yes, you need to reflash your "BIOS" chip.

you checked on the integrity?

i try again to upgrade gives an error, 8703: PLEASE REBOOT YOUR SYSTEM. Firmware update cannot be initiated without a reboot.
better not to restart the pc)))) better to be safe and reflash via FPT.

It is strange, that is the error i got the first time i flashed it, second time worked, also i flashed it on my backup BIOS, but then it worked right away.
Try flashing it again, i don't know if there is some bug or something with FWUpdate 1205.

EDIT: Try a global reset, and flash again.

OK, great
Feels like we need to find a newer version of FWUpdate soon.

Just corrupted my MEI with the 11.0.12.1008 con h 1.5m firmware on a Gigabyte GA-Z170 HD3 DDR3.

Could not boot into Windows after that, recovered the UEFI with my SPI programmer.

Does someone that has successfully updated their firmware have a SHA1 checksum for the file "ME Firmware 11.0.12.1008_CON_H..bin" ?

My file SHA1: a401578c690fa478c5b015416269180467033131

I am not game to flash it again just yet.

1. EVGA Z370 Classified K, Core i9-9900KS @ 5.0 GHz, 4x8GB Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-4133 MHz,
Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe 2TB, Asus 2070 Mini OC, Corsair AX850

I updated successfully after second attempt, like jixaker.

Not sure what is the problem with this version.

Why didn't you use your Dual Bios Feature do undo your work? wouldnt that be easier?
Please send me a dump of the bios after you updated your Firmware.

Please send me a dump of the bios after you updated your Firmware.

That is the SHA1 of the LP FW.

EDIT: I used 7-Zip to calculate the SHA1, but MEA SHA1 is different, it seems possible that the FWUpdate version we have is to old.

My mobo has no BIOS switch, I tried for half an hour to get the backup BIOS to kick in but because the system could still POST it would not switch over.

Here is a dump of the corrupted BIOS F6a after the failed update --> GA-Z170-HD3_DDR3_BIOS_F6a_CORRUPT.zip

I tried again using the supplied FWUpdLcl64.exe and received the same error msg;

And here is MEInfoWin64's output after failed update (I have not rebooted yet);

Once I reboot I will not be able to boot into Windows again and will have to re-program the mobo flash rom again - unless there is something else I can do? (I'm open to suggestions)

Ok, something is wrong either with FWUpdate 11.0.0.1205 (latest as of 11.0.10.1002 package) or the latest 11.0.12.1008 firmware. So, do not flash it until we know more. I have reverted back to 11.0.11.1005 at the first post.

Regarding the hash, MEA calculates the SHA1 hash of the firmware's RSA signature which is 100 bytes and close to the FTPR section's $MN2 manifest. Yes I know you don't understand these details but here is a picture:

@chinobino

Based on what you uploaded, do not shut down your system! Your dump is empty, are you sure you did it properly? Did you use FPT and accidentally deleted the SPI contents? FWUpdate can't cause such an issue. Do you have an unlocked flash descriptor to reflash your entire SPI image from a backup or similar?

@plutomaniac

The first dump was from the first failed MEI update - I examined with a hex editor and was very confused by all the F's - where's my BIOS gone lol!

Compressed BIOS file size 9KB - yeah that's very bad!

Here is a BIOS dump from this system as it is running now;

GA-Z170-HD3_DDR3_BIOS_F6a_CORRUPT2.zip

It still retains some parts but you can see all the deleted areas...

I used the supplied FWUpdLcl64.exe (I never use FPT for anything).

I have a flash programmer (and another of the same motherboard) so I should be able to recover the system again, after removing my graphics card to get the mobo battery out again.

Pretty tired now - might leave the PC on and do it tomorrow (10:45pm here).
