I actually have one of these tablets. After a long and stressful process, I managed to install El Capitan on it. I could not for the life of me get the Intel HD Graphics 5300 to work. I followed Austere.J's guide, but the bios on this tablet is fully unlocked, you can change just about everything including the DVMT pre-allocated memory. I used clover to try and inject the graphics but it didn't work. In the "About this Mac" window it showed "Intel HD Graphics 5300 12mb". One thing that could be wrong is that I had to delete 2 of the Intel graphics kexts in order for it to boot or else it would kernel panic.

Which kexts did you delete?

No expectation of working graphics if you delete the kexts that support it.

Hi, Note that OS X can not boot on some laptops if DVMT pre-allocated memory is >= 128MB.

Yes, 64mb seems to be the most common working value for Broadwell graphics.
 
is Intel HD 5300 native or OOB like intel HD 5000/6000 ?
 
I apologize in advanced for the late reply. I deleted 2 kexts in order for the installation to boot (probably could've unchecked InjectIntel). The two kexts I deleted were "AppleIntelHDGraphicsFB" and "AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB". After the installation, the tablet was kernel panicking because of the "AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB" kext, so I deleted it in -s mode. Once I got to the desktop I installed clover followed this guide: http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-...hd-graphics-5500-os-x-yosemite-10-10-3-a.html. Since the bios is fully unlocked, there was no need to patch anything so I proceeded with the clover injection. It didn't work so I tried reinstalling the "AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB" kext but from what I remember it either didn't boot or it still didn't load the graphics. Note that I did change the DVMT pre-allocated memory.

@locomacg6, from what I recall I don't think there was a bluetooth icon in system preferences. Also, when I clicked the network icon, an error message came up saying something along the line "Network settings couldn't open". The wifi and bluetooth chip is an RTL8723BU. The sound chip is an ALC269.

AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB is not used with the hardware in your profile.
 
The hardware in my profile is the hackintosh that I currently use. I am talking about the tablet that has an Intel core m processor along with Intel HD Graphics 5300 (Onda v919 core m).

Your profile needs to have the hardware you're asking about.
 
The Cube i7 Stylus would be very interesting.

Display: 10.6" PLS, 1920x1080 with Wacom Stylus support*
* Surface Pro 2 panel with built-in Wacom hardware (SAMSUNG LTL106HL01-001)
Touch: 10-point multi-touch*
* Controller: FocalTech FT5826
CPU: Intel Core M 5Y10c
RAM: 4GB Low Power DDR3*
* Hynix Dual Channel LPDDR3-1600, 2x2GB
SSD: Foresee 64GB*
* Speed: ~500 Read [MB/s] and ~170 Write [MB/s]
Audio Codec: Realtek ALC283
WiFi/Bluetooth: Realtek RTL8723BU
Cameras: 5.0 MP (rear), 2.0 MP (front)


Since the Surface Pro 2 can be used with Hackintosh, I assume the Display with Wacom Digitizer should work - and that where it gets interesting. A tablet with a Wacom digitizer and hackintosh for this price would be AWESOME. For digital art it would be finally the thing everyone wants.
Don`t know what kind of controller the Surface Pro 2 is using, but if it`s the same it would be awesome, because multitouch works with the Surface Pro 2.

The Question is... can we get the whole thing working? I did not found any kext for the WiFi/Bluetooth and does the graphics work now?
I want an affordable graphic tablet with hackintosh on it. Please can we get this working?
