# HP EliteBook 2170p
|
|
|
|
This page is about the notebook [HP EliteBook 2170p].
|
|
|
|
## Release status
|
|
|
|
HP EliteBook 2170p was released in 2012 and is now end of life.
|
|
It can be bought from a secondhand market like Taobao or eBay.
|
|
|
|
## Required proprietary blobs
|
|
|
|
The following blobs are required to operate the hardware:
|
|
1. EC firmware
|
|
2. Intel ME firmware
|
|
|
|
EC firmware can be retrieved from the HP firmware update image, or the firmware
|
|
backup of the laptop. EC Firmware is part of the coreboot build process.
|
|
The guide on extracting EC firmware and using it to build coreboot is in
|
|
document [HP Laptops with KBC1126 Embedded Controller](hp_kbc1126_laptops).
|
|
|
|
Intel ME firmware is in the flash chip. It is not needed when building coreboot.
|
|
|
|
## Programming
|
|
|
|
The flash chip is located between the memory slots, WWAN card and CPU,
|
|
covered by the base enclosure, which needs to be removed according to
|
|
the [Maintenance and Service Guide] to access the flash chip. Unlike
|
|
other variants, the flash chip on 2170p is socketed, so it can be taken
|
|
off and operated with an external programmer.
|
|
|
|
Pin 1 of the flash chip is at the side near the CPU.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For more details have a look at the general [flashing tutorial].
