Laptop 13 13th Gen Intel Core BIOS 3.07 Release STABLE

Firmware upgrade process worked very easily as expected. A flawless process. A nice add-on feature to optimize the longevity of the battery. Thanks!

Beta 3.07 has been released for more than a week now, do you know when firmware will be promoted to stable release?

Is using a charger mandatory or is a docking station sufficient ?

Exact same problem here with my Intel® Core™ Ultra 5 125H.

This thread is specific to the 13th Gen Intel Core. I would not expect you to be seeing LVFS updates for the 13th Gen Intel Core laptop on your Core Ultra laptop.

DUH, my bad. I’m starting to have a bit of trouble keeping up with all the different generations, distros talk…etc. Probably time to back off, let things break, then figure out how to fix it.

Laptop 13 13th Gen, Ubuntu 24.10. Upgraded to BIOS 3.07 and immediately got the 400mhz CPU throttling “bug” (or so I found out after some searching). I was mystified. Went back to 3.05 I was on before and performance immediately went back to exactly what it was before the 3.07 upgrade, and I changed nothing else. I’m not feeling inclined to upgrade BIOS again. I shouldn’t have to try the CMOS reset or whatever else, when the only change is a BIOS upgrade, then things stop working properly, and then a downgrade immediately fixes the problems.

No update for me available, for some reason.

Running Ubuntu Jammy with an 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1340P with firmware 3.03, but when I use the update commands I get the following:

fwupdmgr refresh --force

Still no update via lvfs.
That’s a bit disappointing. I hoped for a full linux support.

Thanks for the report, LVFS demoted this due to metadata changing in a few end user reports. we have moved it back to stable.

After resizing my way too small EFI partition I can confirm that the update worked flawlessly.

I’m happy again.

Great work framework.

Keep it that way.

P.S. to get the fwupdate-command to recognize the BIOS update I had to unplug the power adaptor. I plugged it in after download before rebooting.

can now confirm that the update via lvfs worked

Maybe there is a problem with the lvfs stable remote :

  • version 3.06 and 3.07 are available only in testing
  • this LVFS: Laptop 13 AMD Ryzen 7040 say that the versions 3.06 and 3.07 are “not be suitable for production systems”

Should I use the testing remote?

looks like things are better, thanks a lot :slight_smile:
