[Guide] Sierra on HP Spectre x360

[samreedy]

Hey guys, could you please point me to something where I can figure out how to enable HDMI to connect second monitor?
I'm running 10.12.5 on HP Spectre x360 15t (P0A44AAR)with i7-6500U on board and used RehabMan's plist to boot.

Oh also I have a problem with signing to AppStore (your device could not be verified) any tips about that?
I'm using MacBook Pro 13,3 in SMBIOS.

Many thanks in forward

have you got ethernet set as en0? and have you got the right ethernet kexts installed?

HDMI works for me, but no sound (not too fussed about that as of yet)

What happens when you plug HDMI?

Actually nothing happens, at all ("No hdmi signal" message as when HDMI not plugged at monitor or tv with 100% working HDMI cables)

have you got ethernet set as en0? and have you got the right ethernet kexts installed?

Well, actually I don't have ethernet port, so I don't have any drivers

Also...

You might need to enable the 0306 port (patching the framebuffer).

NullEthernet.kext as per FAQ.

NullEthernet.kext as per FAQ.

I had wrong Ethernet driver, so I replaced it with Null.kext with ssdt, did it right ( can confirm it, because AppStore is working now)
could you please give me some details about port 0306? is it relate to DVMT-prealloc or HDMI audio for FAQ?

External connector data in AppleIntelSKLGraphicsFramebuffer for 0x19160000:
01 05 09 00 00 04 00 00 87 01 00 00 02 04 0A 00 00 04 00 00 87 01 00 00 FF 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 20 00 00 00

To add 0306, replace with (external port DP):
01 05 09 00 00 04 00 00 87 01 00 00 02 04 0A 00 00 04 00 00 87 01 00 00 03 06 0A 00 00 04 00 00 87 01 00 00

If it is HDMI, would be:
01 05 09 00 00 04 00 00 87 01 00 00 02 04 0A 00 00 04 00 00 87 01 00 00 03 06 0A 00 00 08 00 00 87 01 00 00

And you need to modify the port count, so:
01 03 03 03 00 00 20 02

Replace with:
01 03 04 03 00 00 20 02

Unfortunately it didn't help me (I have both DP and HDMI, but I don't need DP and can't check it)
I tried to patch it with clover in kexts to patch section, am I doing it right?

Could you please send me your config?

The patch is not working because you have another patch prior...
The set of patches you have decided to use are order dependent...

Move the patch marked "0x19160000/etc, 19MB framebuffer 9MB cursor bytes (credit RehabMan)" to after the other patches.

My OS X install on my hp spectrex360 is pretty nice. I want to add Windows 10 to the UEFI clover boot loader (On the same hard drive). @RehabMan can you reference me to a guide that will work?

Hello
Would it be possible to update to sierra directly from a previously system installed with El Capitan? Or would i have to do a complete reinstall?
Thank You..
