The HP elitebook 840 g3 was successfully upgraded to macOS Mojave beta, first according to the RehabMan guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...book-zbook-using-clover-uefi-hotpatch.232948/

First: update clover to the latest version.

Second: Execute the following command to switch to the RehabMan beta branch and update the kext and hotpatch files.

Terminal execution:

1. Install the developer tools:
Code: 
git

2. Clone the propo of the probook:
Code: 
mkdir ~/Projects
cd ~/Projects
git clone https://github.com/RehabMan/HP-ProBook-4x30s-DSDT-Patch probook.git

3. According to the guide, switch to the beta branch:
Code: 
cd ~/Projects/probook.git
git checkout beta

4. Download the necessary kext and some files and install them in the L/E directory.
Code: 
cd ~/Projects/probook.git
./download.sh
./install_downloads.sh

5. Mount the EFI partition:
Code: 
cd ~/Projects/probook.git
./mount_efi.sh

6. Build hotpatch and config.plist:
Code: 
cd ~/Projects/probook.git
./build.sh

7. Copy ssdts to the \efi\clover\ACPI\patched\ directory
Code: 
./install_acpi.sh install_8x0g3_skylake

8. Copy the config file to the \efi\clover\ directory
Code: 
cp config/config_8x0_G3_Skylake.plist /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/config.plist

9. Rebuild the driver cache:
Code: 
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

Third: Install the macOS Mojave description file, go to the App Store, download 10.14beta and install it normally. After the installation is successful, repeat the second step again. The sound and brightness adjustment is normal.( Please use the master version for 10.13.x).According to rehabman's prompt, the beta branch can still be used for 10.13.x or 10.12.x, or an older version.​

Other elitebook/probook/zbook models can be referred to the guide.

Some tips:
1.wifi card:
It is recommended to replace it with bcm94352zae or DW1560. If you need better performance, you can replace it with DW1830. You may need to add a new wifi antenna. DW1820A or BCM94350ZAE is not recommended and may cause your system to fail to install properly.

2.Hard disk:
It is recommended to use the SATA protocol hard disk. The nvme protocol hard disk may require additional patches. I am currently testing the M2 interface hard drive, PM981 needs to add additional patches to install properly, PM961 can be installed and used normally.

3.Clover:
It is recommended to use the latest version of Clover. When installing clover, drivers64UEFI recommends AptioMemoryFix.efi instead of OsxAptioFix*Drv.efi，It is recommended to use the latest version of Clover. When installing clover, drivers64UEFI recommends AptioMemoryfix.efi instead of Osxaptiodrv3.

Good Lucky.


Thanks to RehabMan and Hackintosh for the developers and apple.inc

Note that the beta branch can still be used with 10.13.x/10.12.x/etc.

Thanks rehabman
 
You may want to add ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi from the clover installer and remove the old apfs.efi. This will fetch the current apfs from the OS during startup.

You may also want to add AppleALC.kext (v1.2.8) to /Library/Extensions to enable audio in Mojave.

I tested apfsdriverloader.efi, and there is no significant difference between apfs.efi. In addition, RehabMan's hotpatch has added 10.14beta audio support, no need to use applealc, the current test audio is normal, if you need, you can try RehabMan's beta branch, the changes made for 10.14.
