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

Might be worthwhile. Nothing to look at otherwise.



Read the FAQ.



Power draw greater than the power properties injected.
Obviously, a macOS/OS X specific thing.
Windows and Linux determine power supply on USB differently.



As per FAQ (you should read it), Android File Transfer is known to interfere.

Sorry, I've underestimated the power of F.A.Qs :D
Thank you again for your ultrafast support, much appreciated :)
 
Another thing that I've noticed: now in post installation phase my system seems to have duplicate kexts eg. /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/(FakeSMC.kext,IntelMausiEthernet.kext and VoodooPS2Controller.kext) and /Library/Extensions/(FakeSMC.kext,IntelMausiEthernet.kext and VoodooPS2Controller.kext)
Should I leave them like that or the kexts in the ESP are no longer necessary now that they are also present in /L/E?

By design.

It is the correct way.
You can read about it in post #2 of the main Clover laptop guide.

Understood :)

I've removed Android File Transfer completely and it fixed the Bluetooth issue :)

However the USB issues persist, this time after resuming the laptop from sleep I get two notification messages regarding both the external USB hard disk and the internal HP WebCam, I've tried to access the WebCam through FaceTime and in fact the software cannot use it :(

Like before If I connect the USB devices prior to the laptop power on then there is no problem, I'm able to access them without issue
If I remove and connect them in succession then the laptop won't be able to even detect them
 
HI @RehabMan very good guide, I have used it several times for different notebooks, but I have noticed that with 10.12+ things have become more difficult, random restarts, bluetooth stops working, no sound after reboot, etc, and in an elitebook 9480m does not work the screen after wake, recommend using 10.11.6? , intel skylake or kabylake are supported on 10.11.6? thanks

You forgot to attach "Problem Reporting" files.

Note: The "not ejected" problem is a very common/typical problem. Don't leave USB storage devices plugged in across sleep/wake cycle.

No "Problem Reporting" files attached, therefore no ideas for you.
Read post #1, "Problem Reporting".
