[GUIDE] Sierra on the GA-Z170X-UD3

[pit512]

I skipped the CPU PM section. Does this matter?

Your hack can run properly without, but you will lose the Turbo ability (among others) of your CPU...

Now I'm trying to get to see the m.2 nvme SSD on the main board.

I do not have any NVMe drive, but you may have a look here.

If you are running iMac17,1 then you shouldn't need to do the PM updates.

For anyone who have problems with my USB script after updating the BIOS to F20 please try this:

Open the USB-SSDT in MaciASL (RehabMan-MaciASL-2016-0423.zip)

Remove these two lines:

External (HUBC, IntObj)    // (from opcode)
External (UMAP, IntObj)    // (from opcode)

Replace these lines:

    Scope (\_SB)
    {
        Method (_INI, 0, NotSerialized)  // _INI: Initialize
        {
            Store ("Method \\_SB._INI Called", Debug)
            Store (***SOMEHEXCODE***, \HUBC)
            Store (***SOMEOTHERHEXCODE***, \UMAP)
        }
    }

with:

    Name (HUBC, ***SOMEHEXTCODE***)
    Name (UMAP, ***SOMEOTHERHEXCODE***)

By: ***SOMEHEXCODE*** and ***SOMEOTHERHEXCODE*** I mean, there is a value there, on mine it's: 0xC243 and 0x013C, copy those and use them in the replaced code (Use your own, those are only an example).

The problem is there because Gigabyte changed some of their ACPI code in the F20 BIOS (They removed the HUBC and UMAP from DSDT, which means we can no longer write these values to the fields in the DSDT).

Bluetooth devices cause a sleep to wake up
Install the BCM943602CS, the wireless card-free drive, Bluetooth-free drive, but found that sleep, immediately wake up.
After investigation and found that as long as the unplug the usb Bluetooth interface, sleep is no problem.

did you find a solution to this problem?

I followed the entire guide until the point number 2 of the Post-Installation Configuration. When I run freqVectorsEdit.sh in Terminal (is this correct?) I chose the number 14 "Mac-65CE76090165799A.plist (iMac17,1)" I had this msg:
"Do you want to open Mac-F60DEB81FF30ACF6.plist (y/n)?"
Is this correct?
When I run "ssdtPRGen.sh" in Terminal I have: "Permission denied"
If I run "audio_cloverHDMI-110.command" I have "OS X Version: 10.12.2 is not supported"
Please help me. Audio don't work

Use my script, with the changes two posts above your post, answer that the port which bluetooth is connected to, is used as an internal port.

Sleep works just fine using that on my system.

Run chmod +x ssdtPRgen.sh on the script to make it executable.

Search in audio forum for a solution on the audio.

I have been able to get the m.2 NVMe connectors to work by using the kexts and config.plist edit mentioned in this thread.

https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...-h170m-pro-the-really-long-novice-way.210590/

You need to insert the IONVMeFamily.kext at the same steps when you are setting up the kexts at the same time as you prepare the installer for a clean install.

Thanks for the reply. In Terminal I write "chmod +x ssdtPRgen.sh" and nothing appear. Is this ok?
