Name | Solution |
---|---|
Built-In Display | Works thanks to SSDT-PNLF.aml (Backlight Fix) and WhateverGreen.kext (iGPU Fixes). |
All USB Ports | Thanks to USBMap.aml (Ports mapped for macOS) and SSDT-EC-USBX-LAPTOP.aml . |
Jack 3.5mm, Speakers & Microphone | Thanks to AppleALC.kext (Audio Driver) and layout setted to "1" (Dec) or "01000000" (Hex). |
DC-IN & Battery | VirtualSMC.kext with SMCBatteryManager.kext allows management off charging and Battery Info. |
NVMe & HDD | It used to be something tricky but having SATA on AHCI Mode on BIOS/UEFI and latest firmware for the NVMe is enough. |
Camera | Is connected via Internal USB and it works. |
Ethernet | Thanks to RealtekRTL8111.kext (Ethernet Driver). |
Keyboard | Thanks to VoodooPS2.kext (Driver for PS2 devices). |
Trackpad | Thanks to SSDT-XOSI.aml (Make some Windows Features Avaible for macOS too) and with VoodooI2C.kext in combination with VoodooI2CHID.kext (Driver for I2C and HID devices like my trackpad). |
PowerOff, Reboot & Sleep | Working thanks to having correct configs for CPU, iGPU, disabled dGPU, mapped USB Ports and executed these commands after macOS installation: sudo pmset autopoweroff 0 , sudo pmset powernap 0 , sudo pmset standby 0 , sudo pmset proximitywake 0 , sudo pmset tcpkeepalive 0 . |
WiFi | The WiFi/BT Card needs to be replaced with a BCM94352Z in order to have FULL Native Wirelless Features. |
Bluetooth | The WiFi/BT Card needs to be replaced with a BCM94352Z in order to have FULL Native Wirelless Features. |
HDMI Port | HDMI may not work because of nVIDIA OPTIMUS dGPU+iGPU Combo. |
Continuity Features | Nothing will without compatible WiFi-BT Card |
dGPU | dGPU doesn't have any drivers on any macOS OS. |

- Open Terminal and use the proper commands for your macOS installer:
- Ventura:
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Ventura.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume
- Monterrey:
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Monterey.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume
- Big Sur:
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Big\ Sur.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume
- Catalina:
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Catalina.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume
- Mojave:
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Mojave.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume
- High Sierra:
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ High\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume
- Make Sure you have Latest BIOS v311
- After Updating the BIOS, you just need to DISABLE
Secure Boot
, and you are good to go.
Open Terminal.app and run those commands:
sudo pmset autopoweroff 0
sudo pmset powernap 0
sudo pmset standby 0
sudo pmset proximitywake 0
sudo pmset tcpkeepalive 0
These 5 commands help fixing possible Sleep/Wake Issues
- sudo rm /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
- sudo rm /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
These 2 commands help fixing possible iCloud Ban/iMessages Ban or WiFi/Ethernet Issues (Use only if you want or need)
