How to flash Phoenix BIOS in Samsung laptop?

BIOS: Phoenix SecureCore Tiano
Laptop: Samsung 300V5
For a completely incomprehensible reason, the BIOS stopped opening, neither the standard F2, nor DEL nor Esc work, I already tried almost all combinations that you can think of to press, all to no avail, I press F2, writes "Please wait ..." and continues to load the OS.
I tried to update through the standard Samsung utility, but it says that I already have the latest version (Phoenix SecureCore-Tiano (tm) NB Version 2.1 10FI) and turns off.
I looked for utilities, but most do not start (I have Win7x64), and the rest does not want to work (errors).
Did:
1. Disconnected all devices, hard, drive, left one bar of RAM.
2. I took out the batteries (the battery itself and the battery on the motherboard) for the night from the laptop.
3. I closed the crysis bios terminals (I wrote correctly) with the batteries inserted.
4. I racked my brains with cmosviev, nothing good came of it
. I still have 3 options in my head:
1. Bring it to the SC and flash it through the programmer (it’s scary to solder the bios from the motherboard)
2. Deceive the Samsung program (change it), so that it doesn’t check the version
3. Deceive the same program by changing the version in bios (I think the easiest option)
4. Edit the bios settings (at least boot priorities), I would be fine.
The program itself is from Samsung 3.81 MB
Maybe you will advise something else, otherwise it is not very convenient to remove and hot-swap hdd.

This helped me
1. Run ITEM 10fi, but disagree with the first sign .. that the BIOS will be updated.
2. Go to \Users\*.*\AppData\Local\Temp and pull out the __Samsung_Update temporary folder from there with all the contents of this BIOS updater (maybe called WinFlash, or maybe otherwise) to the root of the disk.
3. At the output you will get a bunch of files. There will also be a feknis firmware file 10FI.rom
4. In the WINFLASH.INI file in the [UI] section, add Advanced = 1, set EnableLog as 1.
5. Run the command line as an administrator, go to the __Samsung_Update folder
6. Run the WinFlash command. exe 10FI.rom /v /cs /sd /sv /svs

Have you tried using a Windows executable?
I have a np300v5a-s0b model, and I updated it through the Windows executable without problems

I took out the firmware file from the above executable , but this is only the BIOS region, the rest will have to be read from the SPI chip.
You can try different recovery methods from here , but I would still take the laptop to the service, because to restore after a possible firmware failure, you need a complete image with all regions, and you can’t do it without a programmer or very strong witchcraft .

Hello. I ran into the same problem on the same laptop model and I want to ask - how did you finally solve it? And then I called the service, there it costs 3500, somehow expensive.

Good afternoon. I have another question. It also seems that bios has flown off after pulling out the battery, it just turns on and off on its own every second, and of course suspicions about bios firmware, because I didn’t do anything like that. Actually the question itself is, what kind of programmer is needed to flash the Phoenix BIOS in a Samsung laptop? Well, the program for it
