Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen1 7260AC + FHD+ LTE Mods

leokim

I have completed to install a ngff 7260ac ( 802.11ac wifi + Bluetooth 4.0 ) . For this mods, I have desolderd original nsff connector.


I have refered to X1 carbon schematic and boardview for nsff wifi pinout and refered to pcie technical document for ngff pinout.


At the last time, I have modified X1 carbon bios ( specially SPI2 , 4M ROM Bios ) for whitelist removal. As you know or not, can't flash

modified bios. Modified bios can be written by flash rom writer.





Have a great day.

So  how did you flash the modified bios ?
Take bios chip from motherboard and soldering back after flashing by rom writer ?

通过修改BIOS，就可以在X1CG上面通过NGFF，使用7620AC

It's a way to realize what you want.But I don't think it's a great method which can be widely Spreaded.

Leokim, could you please help us with adding P8800 support to the EC module of X61 tablet?
We have succeeded in installing QX9300 on T61 and P8800 & T9900 on X61. But BIOS problem is stopping us from getting further on X61t

Also, would you be able to upgrade the graphics card on W701 and sort out the screen problems?

It is difficult to support P8800 on x61t . lots of bios modifications are required.

At the current time, you can only write whitelist removal bios by rom writer.

Good job. I wish I could do that. Alas, X1c Gen 1 is my major laptop and I don't want to break it this soon.

Again, nicely done

Good job, could the X1C Gen1 half pci-e slot install the half Msata harddisk? If it could work ,the ngff slot can use the way that you show install the bluetooch&3G mods, and the disk space can be larger.

And that ,we really want you to share the bios files to us, that will be great!
