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

Disabling Wake On LAN fixed the insomnia, thanks. Insert key doesn't register any keypress, and F12, seems to register a very brief keypress but not won't stay depressed. And KEY87 definitely didn't help--makes the whole keyboard go dead after hitting what must be a conflicting or unmapped key. I'll pursue the NVidia, would be neat to get it to work. Thanks for all the help, glad I could contribute my puny learnings.

What do you expect Insert to do? By F12, do you mean F12 or Fn+F12? (some BIOSes reverse the functions of Fn+Fx <-> Fx).

I update to latest repo.
In which Part of SSDT-8x0-G3-Skylake.aml must i change injected HDEF layout-id. Can you give me a correct instruction

It is relatively obvious. Search for "layout-id" in the file (there is only one). You will see the 0x05 inside the _DSM method, which needs to be changed to 7.

The only way to re-install AppleHDA.kext is to run the OS X installer.

I was under the impression that the Combo Update reinstalled AppleHDA. Is there no way to fix it other than a complete reinstall?

Combo updates only install files that have changed. No need for a "complete re-install"... just freshen everything by running the OS X installer, but don't erase the target partition before starting it.

Do you mean this Part? and change 0x05 to 0x07

Name (_SB.PCI0.HECI._STA, Zero) // _STA: Status
Method (_SB.PCI0.HDEF._DSM, 4, NotSerialized) // _DSM: Device-Specific Method
{
If (LNot (Arg2))
{
Return (Buffer (One)
{
0x03
})
}

Return (Package (0x06)
{
"layout-id",
Buffer (0x04)
{
0x05, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00
},

"hda-gfx",
Buffer (0x0A)
{
"onboard-1"
},

"PinConfigurations",
Buffer (Zero) {}

Yes, of course. Changing the 0x05 to 7 will work (as far as injecting layout-id=7 instead of layout-id=5).

Result: No Sound with change to 0x07

Perhaps you neglected to update from the repo? Perhaps you neglected to run ./install_downloads.sh? Perhaps you didn't run ./install_acpi.sh to update your SSDTs.

Read post #1, "Problem Reporting".

Reinstalled using 10.11 (no patch) , then redid the kext installation procedure, rebooting several times afterwards. Everything seems to work except for the sound. For reference, I also tried a fresh Sierra installation (not expecting it to work), and the most things work there, excepting again the sound.

From where did you download OS X?
