12th Gen Intel Core BIOS 3.06 Beta

I had the same error at Line 97 when I tried. Did a full cfdisk/mkfs.fat and rewriting the files but that didn’t help.

I ended up switching to LVFS to do the upgrade using the config changes @Kieran_Levin listed, which was mostly successful. For some reason like @Fraoch I have the same issue with it wanting to update “UEFI Device Firmware (207 → 310)” again…

When I run fwupdmgr get-updates this is the status info:

Devices with no available firmware updates: 
 • PCIe SSD
 • 0000:00:1f.5
 • Fingerprint Sensor
Devices with the latest available firmware version:
 • System Firmware
 • UEFI Device Firmware
 • UEFI dbx
________________________________________________

Devices that were not updated correctly:

 • UEFI Device Firmware (207 → 310)

Devices that have been updated successfully:

 • System Firmware (0.0.3.4 → 0.0.3.6)
 • UEFI Device Firmware (207 → 310)
 • UEFI dbx (33 → 217)

(I submitted an uploaded report w/ full details via fwupdmgr, so hopefully that helps…)

I’m not a fwupdmgr super-user, but I installed GNOME Firmware to double check and It appears that I have two “Framework UEFI Device Firmware” items, one that is GUID a9c91b0c-c0b8-463d-a7da-a5d6ec646333 and is listed as v310 now and was successful, and one that is GUID ba2e4e6e-3b0c-4f25-8a59-4c553fc86ea2 that is v207 and still needs to be upgrade (is this each side?)

I have 1 x USB-C and 1 x USB-A on each side, and I had my AC plugged in on the left side, so maybe I’ll flip it and try to update again and see if that helps…

UPDATE: yep, flipping the USB-C power onto the other side seems to have been the issue. Now both sides are showing v310.
