[Guide] HP ProBook/EliteBook/Zbook using Clover UEFI hotpatch (10.11)

[kartoffelsalat_reloaded]

Key102 = must change the Key ( ^° ) with ( <> ) and assign the Functions Keys Brightness, Volume, Lauchpad.... and yes the Num Lock don´t work too.

Did you tried without keyfile? Then you can use a custom keyboard layout via preferences for windows keyboards and load it. I have one file for german keyboard layout. When selecting this, i am able to use all keys at the correct place except the NUM lock button but that is function key.

Hello RehabMan,

I really appreciate your efforts, sir.
Would you please help me check my system out if everything is running well? I used Clover and PBI-CE. I want to know if things are running well or I should follow this guide.

Attached is the Zip file you requested for. patchmatic command was not found maybe because I didn't use your command line.

The guide in this post is really easy to use. I would suggest you transition from the PBI-CE to the new hotpatch format so your 100% as per the guide. Post #1 has a section just for users to transition from the PBI to the Hotpatch and its really easy to follow, just read it thru first carefully before you begin.

Read post #1, "Problem Reporting".

Also...

Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)

Mobo: manufacturer/model + bootloader(Clover/Chameleon/Chimera)
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
Mobo: HP ProBook 4540s (Clover)
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.

Note: When specifying your bootloader, if using Clover legacy, please be sure to specify "Clover legacy"). Specifying "Clover" will be assumed as "Clover UEFI"

Thanks for your feedback. I have updated my profile. I'm attaching the files you mentioned with two system logs related two errors. One is related black screen after wake up ( described by me above) and other one related no bluetooth after wake up.


Please be so kind and take a look at both

one related no bluetooth after wake up.

Try pressing the wifi button on your laptop twice -> right upper corner.
What bluetooth module you have? Do you also have the BCM94352Z? Do you notice that bluetooth is not correctly activated after cold start? I need to boot windows first and then mac to get the bt of the card working correctly. Maybe this is related due to the wrong USB implementation like the usb wake issue.

Yes. it is Dell Wireless DW1560 06xryc based on BCM94352Z chipset. BTW it works with 820G1 as well. For me sometimes it happens with BT and sometimes with Audio. Never two at once and newer with Wifi.
Searching Logs i've found this error:

kernel[0]: BrcmPatchRAM2: [0a5c:216f]: Not responding - Delaying next read.
kernel[0]: BrcmPatchRAM2: [0a5c:216f]: device request failed ("0xe00002d8 (UNDEFINED)" 0xe00002d8).

This patch is part of the RehabManBrcmPathRam-2016-0705 installed using Rehab Manual.Maybe BrcmBluetoothInjector should be use instead but homepage doesn't contain compiled version.
oh and I've been seeing tis bt error only few times , usually bt works

or maybe this path :https://github.com/dokterdok/Continuity-Activation-Tool

Well, I typed git in terminal only to see list of common Git commands. How can I get the git command line installed? I want to transit from Clover a PBI-CE to this guide.

I can try it. But i think, the better way is a new create SSDT-KEYxx.aml

Seems you likely have Xcode installed, but have an incorrect setup for the command line tools.

Check your Xcode settings. Xcode->Preferences->Locations, "Command Line Tools".

After reading this realising that I have Xcode installed, I proceeded to:

mkdir ~/Projects
cd ~/Projects
git clone https://github.com/RehabMan/HP-ProBook-4x30s-DSDT-Patch probook.git

But got this:

Cloning into 'probook.git'...

fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/RehabMan/HP-ProBook-4x30s-DSDT-Patch/': Could not resolve host: github.com

What else should I do?

 

[RehabMan]

The mapping of the keys is not correct when using one of your files.

The keyboard mapping is the same when using KEY102.aml as when not using it. KEY87.aml changes the keymapping.

Could you tell me the features which i am missing?

Things like SysPrefs->Keyboard->"Use all F1,F2..." option.

Whats working without: sleep, switch screen, keyboard backlight, brightness, volume, mute mic, mute audio and disable BT/Wifi button.
Not working: NUM button - but who really uses it?

NumLock is not supported natively in any case. You need Karabiner for that.

 

[RehabMan]

After restart? No,

Non-working native NVRAM is common with Skylake.
You need to install EmuVariableUefi-64.efi and "RC scripts" from the Clover installer.
