If you have a flasher to recover a brick, you can attempt to run the already existing patches for this generation.

@Agvantibo Have you done the procedure? I have a first gen helix aswell (3rd gen intel)
But I'm on GFET65WW 1.44

What for though? I dont think you can find a wlan/wwan card with compatible form factor.
WWAN is connected via a ribbon cable, the WLAN has a weird form factor.

I wanted the performance settings, every single time I boot up, dock/undock, I have to reset my profile on throttlestop, because the default settings makes the computer unusable for me, slow to even open a browser...
Particularly undocked, I believe it drops to ~8w, unlocked it peaks at ~14

🤔 The wifi is the big no for me.
Well I mean I opened a thread for x131e, and just nice I have a helix 1st gen around, it's the i7 model. Lemme just figure out where the chip is (if its a single 12mb chip then I dont this is going to work out.)

Doesn't exist for SPI 25xx series. Thinkpads of this era use a 4M+8M in dual SPI mode. Shows up as "Opaque flash chip"

Yeah, I recall seeing that while doing an internal flash with flashrom.
