Hi, I got some problems with my Lenovo X121e with Intel Core i3 (MB: DA0FL8MB8C0 REV: C ).
I got random shutdowns so I reflashed only BIOS, later BIOS and EC with dump from Vinafix and even after only BIOS reflashing computer works but WiFi isn't.

Tried so many different things like changeing ME region (all BIOS parts from donor and mine ME region) but still WiFi doesn't work.

What I can do about it?

I tried so many different combination - even BIOS upgrade under Windows doesn't help in both cases - with my old bios and new.


Can anyone help me?

Tell me what to do or prepare .bin for reflashing BIOS chip? (of course I have programmer TL866)


Tried some things like changeing some regions using Flash Image Tool but nothing I did worked :/

I think you better go to the service center. I heard that there are a lot of problems with Lenovo laptops. The first few years, Lenovo produced equipment of decent quality, and now they have rolled down thoroughly.

I did it. Just had to turn on the radio using FN + Fx key and turn on all radios like WLAN/BLUETOOTH etc.
