Suggest: remove OsxAptioFix2Drv.efi, use OsxAptioFixDrv.efi instead. Remove VBoxHfs-64.efi, use HFSPlus.efi instead (if it works for your laptop). Remove DataHub, CsmVideo, PartitionDxe.

Many of your KextsToPatch are for Haswell, not Broadwell.

i follow this post install OSX , and sound not work sleep off sleep

2 - In sometimes When i use the osx and i reboot it switch to the win10 ,it will stick black screen , i must hold the power button to power off and press the power button again to start computer

Win10 installed UEFI or legacy?

3 - very weird , i dont know when it started on the time i switch to win10 system, my win10's sound will not work, "no sound device"; and the wifi not working fine , connected my wifi,and a few seconds later the wifi just disconnected。

Experiment with different settings config.plist/Devices/Audio.
 
:thumbup:
I follow your guide ,use OsxAptioFixDrv.efi and delete that efi ,and delete all the KextsToPatch
and delete device audio resetHDA
for now reboot thrice ,the problem 1,2,seems solved
next step i will research the sound and the sleep section Thanks a lot !
=====================
and the problem 3 was not solved , i use the win10 play a music and close the cover and open the cover
the win 10 system 's sound have a red cross, have no audio device,
and i reboot the win 10 there wifi cant connect any ap and audio also red cross.
 
RehabMan, I noticed that if I enter a custom SMBIOS in clover (SWAG6,2 and MacBook6,2), it would load. It looks as if it's running into a character limit? I tried "MACBOOKAIR6,2" but it wouldn't work as well.
I'm now running my SMBIOS as iMac14,1. Would this be okay? or would I need MacBookAir6,2 ?

I had a problem with sound before I solved it by installed VoodooHDA 2.8.8 and RM'm Codec Commander. You can download VoodooHDA 2.8.8 from OP post#1.
I fixed Windows 10 sound problem by every time I switched OS between OSX and Windows. I access BIOS first to disable sound click Apply then enable sound click Apply then reboot to OSX or Windows with that I'll have sound every time. I don't have to do all that if I boot to same OS as the last time sound will continue to works.
I don't know about WIFI problem because my WIFI works fine on both OS.

Good luck,
 
Hello,

I am literally stuck in the first step :) I have the XPS 9343 (Touch model) and it seems like I have to dump the bios (A05) to modify the dedicated video memory. However I don't know which bios utility I should use to dump it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Search for Universal Bios Backup Toolkit.
Also, A07 is out already.. so you might wanna install that first.
Both of my XPS 13 had DVMT of 0x183, but you should still check that yours.

Are you suggesting that if I install A07, the DVMT might actually be set properly? I have A05 installed on my laptop and the article was using the same firmware. I thought I should stick with it.

No. Check your DVMT value yourself. I cannot tell you what your DVMT value is.
It's up to you. I did an install on A04 till A07. It didn't make any difference.
My DVMT address for both of my XPS13 was 0x183, however I am not sure if it's the same for you. Thus I suggest you check yours yourself.
