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

[RehabMan]

It's our local polish news portal. Here is a link: http://www.wp.pl/ It freezes my laptop on macOS every time I enter the site - I assume that this might be something with TV stream which they have put on the right handside. It's now only wp.pl which I have problem with, but on the other side I didn't surf a lot.

HD4400 and Safari known problems with certain video content.

It is one of the major reasons why this guide is still for El Capitan.

Can you please help me, i have HP Elite Book 840 G3 HD 520 Skylake everything is working also DP port on laptop is working. the issue i have with ultra slim docking when the DP port is plugged to docking won't boot with out DP it's works.

Dock probably requires additional framebuffer patches. For you to investigate.

Hi tonybinjch,
Can you help me up, I have also HP EliteBook 840 G1 with El Capitan, and I cannot get my WiFi card working. I followed this manual and most of devices I managed to get working. All but WiFi card. Which steps did you follow ?
Thanks for hints.

Did you install compatible WiFi hardware as per post #1?

For you to investigate. No experience with it here.

Hi RehabMan,
No, unfortunately I have BCM943228HMB, factory original mounted in this model. I was just wondering if tonybijch used some FAKEPCID method. Do you know the trick to get it running(even without BT) or I have to replace it anyway ?

BCM943228HMB is not supported.
Read post #1 for compatible WiFi hardware recommendations.

Ok

The problem i have consists to an impossibility to change Clover Theme. Like i explained in my first post i tried all the obvious possibilities (Editing manually config.plist, editing config.plist with Clover Configurator or Clover Theme Manager).

"Launch daemon & rc scripts are not operational.NVRAM changes won't be retained next boot." is an error message showing when using Clover theme manager .

Because this app should be made to simplify clover theme customization (the theme manager that was imbedded in Clover Configurator is vanished) i assume that this error message is strongly related to my problem ;-)

Googleling the error message only reports technical pages.

I try to remove EmuVariableUefi-64.efi.

Thank you for your time.

For nearly 3 years I have been running a Hackintosh using Clover (latest release) on an HP 450 G1 (Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4200M, 8GB Ram 64bit, as a Mac ProBook Retina 11,1 and Board i.d. #1942) I have used Mavericks, Yosemite and currently El Capitan since early 2016. Everything worked extremely well up through release OS X 10.11.5. Problem: after upgrade to OS X 10.11.6 we began to have problems. Ran your GitHub and things got worse. Installed Security Update 2-2016, and the system would not boot. Reinstalled 10.11.5 for the app store and the system ran for about 10-days. Now I cannot boot into any Mac partition, even into recovery (Windows 7 is okay). Have used numerous boot flags. Depending on what boot flags are used, it halts at: IOAPIC: Version 0x20 Vector 64:87; missing Blue Tooth Controller Transport or Failed getting NVRAM. Can access the Clover shell, but not a terminal.
