[Guide] Lenovo X250

Apologies about that

Maybe you're hiding it with the GUI/Hide entry.
You can press F3 to show hidden entries.
Keep in mind that if you boot your system partition after attempting to update (without actually running the update installer), the update installer will be deleted, and you will have to apply the update again.

I tired F3 and no hidden menus were displayed or additional menu options. Only options are; 1) Boot macoS for main-disk 2) boot macOS installs from Recovery-HD 3) Boot macOS Recovery-HD and one other I can't recall the last one but its not the one I'm looking for which should be something like "boot macOS installs from main-disk" I presume..

It appears the combo installs itself to the recovery partition too and not main-disk?

I updated via the App Store (on quite a few different computers). It installed the updater/installer on the main system partition, not recovery.

I do not use CoreStorage though. Suggest you revert the CoreStorage setup you have (google 'revert corestorage').

Thanks that worked and upgrade went well except now the X250 HD5500 video driver panic after initial install of patch. I have to manually disable Intel inject check box under clover graphics to get the laptop to boot without panic.
But now the video quality feel and looks like VGA and Intel adapter is no longer recognized but generic 4M


UPDATE: DISABLED THE TWO patches below in clover KextstoPatch and rebooted. Now both Audio and Video started working again. Weird this setting was working with 10.13 but not with 10.13.3

No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.164990/
Use the gen_debug.sh tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.

Hi... @fraisdos125,
can you please put this on 1st post on whenever user want to use dw1830 wifi card:

To be honest, I've just connected J0 and J1... There is a blue cable (probably from 3g modem which I don't have on my t450s), but I didn't bother to experiment when I saw it working oob.

-----------------
Can anyone help me the details about "How to get DW1830 wifi card working?"
Previously I am using Broadcom 94352z, but when installing Dw1830 it not working, checking on Networking menu > WIFI, it says "Turned Off".

-----------------

No bluetooth on the USB bus.
See USB guide:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-10-11-usb-changes-and-solutions.173616/

Plan on creating a custom SSDT for USBInjectAll.kext.
Note: You will need to rename XHCI->XHC.

I have changed it using Clover ACPI/DSDT/Patches
Find: 58484349
Replace: 5848435F

But bluetooth is still not working. Standard Reporting files attached in description.

USBInjectAll.kext is not installed.
See guide:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-creating-a-custom-ssdt-for-usbinjectall-kext.211311/

 

[xerrni]

for me it worked out of the box.
Use reporting tool to attach all necessary files so RehabMan will be able to help you

Strange enough for me.

@RehabMan, could you please help me check attached files. Thank you

Your ACPI patching is not correct.

Ok, i will try again.

Mind if I asked questions:
- i tried to uninstall fakepci_broadcom_wifi.kext and remove previous kext patch on Info.plist on clover. After reboot, somehow wifi work but for a 2 seconds, then turned off again.
At the moment, my wifi detected as third party.
