You said it is like your iPad is plugged/then unplugged. So something might be repeating. Something USB related.

Right ill remember to look when it happens ill put it up on the board as a reminder. Now the strange thing is if i plug in my 6s plus or my 5c into that port when its acting up with the iPad it charges my iPhones perfectly fine I'm wondering if its a power issue.

Hi RehabMan,
following your guide everything works fine on my 450 G2, except for audio. When i turn on the Pc, audio works randomly. Sometimes works, sometimes not, this is really frustrating. Do you have any idea or procedure to fix this issue? (and avoid a fresh install). Please find attached problem reporting files.

Thanks


Seems that other people with 450 G2 have the same problem, see post #2526 and #2527

Power Management

Use the ssdtPRgen.sh script by Pike R. Alpha: https://github.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh

Instructions for using it are provided in the README.

The generated SSDT.aml should be placed on the EFI partition at /EFI/Clover/ACPI/patched/SSDT.aml.

Based on the current instructions at the README, what follows is a synopsis...

To prepare, you only need to do the first two commands:

cd ~/Projects/probook.git
curl --fail -o ./ssdtPRGen.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh/master/ssdtPRGen.sh
chmod +x ./ssdtPRGen.sh

With newer computers (Broadwell, Skylake, and future), make sure you use the beta branch:

cd ~
curl --fail -o ./ssdtPRGen.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh/Beta/ssdtPRGen.sh
chmod +x ./ssdtPRGen.sh

Then you can run the script:

./ssdtPRGen.sh

When it asks if you want to copy to /Extra just respond 'n'. Same for opening ssdt.dsl... respond 'n'.

The results are at ~/Library/ssdtPRgen/SSDT.aml.

Copy that file to EFI partition, /EFI/Clover/ACPI/patched/SSDT.aml

cd ~/Projects/probook.git
sudo ./mount_efi.sh /
cp ~/Library/ssdtPRgen/ssdt.aml /Volumes/EFI/EFI/Clover/ACPI/patched/SSDT.aml

Also, be aware that hibernation (suspend to disk or S4 sleep) is not supported on hackintosh.

You should disable it:

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
sudo rm /var/vm/sleepimage
sudo mkdir /var/vm/sleepimage

Always check your hibernatemode after updates and disable it. System updates tend to re-enable it, although the trick above (making sleepimage a directory) tends to help.

Note: It is common with certain Ivy computers with ULV CPUs and MacBookAir5,x SMBIOS to need kernel flag -xcpm. If you get a panic upon boot, add the -xcpm kernel flag to config.plist/Boot/Arguments.

Is sleep a known issue with this system--specifically recovering after sleep? When my HP Elitebook 840 G1 sleeps it is not possible to resume without force power cycling.

Conversely another HP 840 G1 I have setup using the Probook Installer does not exhibit this behavior.

I am attaching the problem files. Or if you know of other information I will appreciate it.

Hi RehabMan. I'm having issues with HPFanReset booting into Windows 7 with Clover. The fan works fine when I just boot into Windows without Clover. Any ideas?

I replaced the Intel wifi card in my 2560p to Broadcom 43224HMS. Downloaded and installed the fresh files from github and recompiled everything with 6x60p files and config. Right now everything works /audio, BT, wifi, sleep/wake/restart/.
With key87 some function keys are not working, I used key102.aml.
So 6x60p config is totally usable in 2560p.
Thank You again Rehab!
