[Guide] Dell Inspiron 15 7559 El Capitan Hackintosh (Dual Boot With Windows)

Status
Not open for further replies.
I only get one glitch right before the desktop show up. Other then that I have no issues with graphics. It even wakes up in like 2 seconds from sleep. I belive my ig-platform-id is 0x191b0000. It´s already in config.plist in this guide.

Note: I can´t boot with HDMI connected. (Only if I close the lid right after selecting Os X in clover). Be sure to do that too if you have HDMI screen connected upon a boot.
You can connect HDMI after a boot and have 2 screens working at the same time.
I tried to put 0x191b0000 in config.plist but the osx will not boot without the charger, i have to connect it to load the osx and the problem with the flickering lines after sleep still exists..
You can give me your config.plist? It will work? We have the same specs so everything should be fine

I have the same config.plist that is attached in the guide. Maybe the problem is in post-instalation SSDTs or DSDT.
You may also try to disable sleep in OsX preferences

Ok i will try to install osx again..
If i disable sleep it will help? Because its not just sleep if the screen will turn off for a second the flickering lines will show up..
BTW i can install windows before the osx?

You can but I dont´t recommend. The guide is made like this for a reason -->it is the easyest way I know how to hackintosh this laptop. It will not apply for you in all steps if you try to install Windows first.
Note that the disk has to be properly formated with disk utility in order for both OS to coexist properly.

PLEASE HELP
I got news. I did a completely clean install following exactly the same steps above. Everything was fine until I installed Ableton Live, started playing the demo project, and closed it. I pressed the play key for listening to music in Spotify and then noise suddenly started coming out from my headphones!! I mean, headphones output.

I checked Activity Monitor and my previous CPU issue was gone. But I don't know what's causing the audio issue. Maybe the non-compatible WiFi card?


[EDIT] I think I've discovered a bug here. In this case is not a kext it was a USB 3.0 port with external hard drive that caused that noise. Even if I use Bluetooth nothing happens. Did I maybe patched SSDTs wrong? please help! and... what do you think about this issue @RehabMan?

Try this, when you open the screen after sleep don't press any keys and press power button to wake. This works for me hope it will be useful to you also.

Thank you..I will try it, but most of the time the screen just turned on when i open the screen, i can disable this in settings somewhere? And then i will open the screen and press the power

Here is my whole working CLOVER folder of installed system. I doubt it will help you though.
I have to press power button to wake from sleep too.
