I used this tool today for the first time and WOW, was I impressed. It is the EASIEST mod I have been involved in, thank you SOO much to the Maker :) :)

@Sonix

Hi mate, I've tried UBU 1.24 ILT on my Maximus VI Extreme (Z87) and it works like a charm.
I'll test the new Intel LAN OROM and EFI but no issues so far.

Thanks for your hard work. :)

I am new in here but have been using UBU for a long time, I want to report 2 system bios that I am having trouble with 1.24:

Asus Maximus VII Hero: http://rghost.net/7xHH7Np5r
Lenovo ThinkServer TS140: https://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc...fbkta8a_dos.zip

For Asus, the bios include Haswell and Broadwell CPU Microcode, and UBU only allows to choose one. Once chosen either Haswell or Broadwell, the other will be removed. Will UBU in the future support keeping both CPU Microcodes?

For Lenovo, this problem existed for a long time. It will NEVER update Option 1 (RSTe OROM and EFI SATA drivers). It does not give error messages when I choose any version and at the end it will still show the old version when doing a re-scan.

I hope my comment will shape the future version as many new motherboard will support both 4th gen and 5th gen Intel CPUs.

The Lenovo is a very odd one that I cannot explain why the behavior.

I flashed the bios of my Asus Maximus VI Formula (Z87) after modding it with UBU v1.24 ILT, no problems so far. The new Intel LAN modules seem to be working just fine, I see no differences with the previous modules. I'm just wondering why did they update them...

Because microcode is read from the file at a GUID B52282EE-9B66-44B9-B1CF-7E5040F787C1 (_FIT_). And if you push both the microcode it is necessary to recalculate the address in the _FIT_ for the second microcode, otherwise it will not be found. Therefore, user is given the choice of a microcode update.

For Lenovo, this problem existed for a long time. It will NEVER update Option 1 (RSTe OROM and EFI SATA drivers). It does not give error messages when I choose any version and at the end it will still show the old version when doing a re-scan.

In this case, the files EFI IRST(e) and LAN UNDI are non-standard GUID's.
Also 2 files OROM are also in non-standard GUID's
IRSTe in E8FFA355-BCEA-49B6-B5B5-91CA1A7914F5
Intel Boot Agent iSCSI in 22D01A32-5668-4BC2-80C7-8BDFF1F83EA8
Therefore UBU they are not updated.
I recommend to update the necessary files manually using UEFITool.

Edit:
Also 3 file OROM VBIOS Haswell v2177 in GUID 4C757E60-AAD4-42FE-BDE8-AAB180DB3E61

Have you tried to load the operating system over the network?
These modules will be used on the new platform SkyLake (LAN Chip I219). Himself wondering why such an update. :)

Lepovo. If you do not get updated manually, then tell me which version of your upgrade.

I decided not to upgrade the Lenovo because I moved to FreeBSD and is running AHCI with ZFS soft-RAID, thus upgrading the driver is not going to help me. Also, I am not too confident about doing this manually as there are too many UUID that are not in the usual name and I am afraid I might break something.

If Sonix you can update everything for me with the latest version (RSTe, LAN, VGA etc) and I can try to flash it and report back. This might be beneficial in the long run so that UBU can accommodate the new ThinkServer lines.

Thanks

@ SoniX:

I don't know if you are collecting any CHV stuff but here is a Cherry Trail capsule image. Manual extraction is needed (Lordkag's Extractor can detect most of them I guess) since it's not a normal Intel SPI image.

The source is the only Cherry Trail device available, Microsoft Surface 3 (Intel Atom x7-Z8700).

Ok. I just need to know what your CPU ID and the version of the OROM VBIOS or GOP displayed. And also, to some version of IRST update 13.1, 13.5 or 14.0?

I can use 14.0 if that's stable, otherwise I will do one step lower.
