Hello
hope RehabMan or some other Moderator can help figure out this 2 problems I have still from the beginning :
1. my trackpad is not working after reset and I need to put the pc to sleep and wake it up to have the trackpad work again.
2. after sleep my ethernet is not working and I need to unplug the cable (Anker USB-C to Ethernet) and reconnect it.

thanks

It sounds like you might not have made the bootable USB correctly. How did you create the USB?

Yep not done correctly Thanks!

Why did you patch IONetworkingFamily.kext?
Restore to vanilla (run the macOS installer).

You can restore system files by running the macOS installer without erasing the target partition.
This will restore IONetworkingFamily.kext to un-patched (vanilla) as it originally came from Apple.

Ok got it , but it also will restore all other kext I have , no? Do I need to install clover again after running the installer? Or reinstall all the kext ?

It will not affect Clover. And it will not affect other kexts you may have installed (FakeSMC.kext, etc).
It will only restore Apple provided system files (which you should not have overwritten in the first place).

Thanks for that , I will fix it tonight, maybe it will also fix the problem I have when I’m updating the OS in the AppStore

RehabMan , thanks for the support but I have the same problem as I have when trying to update to the latest vision of MacOS in the App Store , I restart the pc as I asked by the installer and when arriving to the clover boot screen I don't have an option of installation , I only have the Windows 10 and the MacOS option , I capture a short clip to show you the problem and I hope you will understand what its the problem I have :

I can't install the 10.13.4 update too.
When I run it, my Notebook reboots and I can see the loading bar with the caption "Installing update", after a few pixels it reboots again and I find myself in clover where I can only select the normal Mac OS where I'm on the 10.13.3 again.

Apart from this I extracted all the kext from the EFI Installer downloaded from Daliansky's gitHub and now ( finally ) I have a fully working touchpad.

I can't solve a strange energy saver problem unfortunately.

Everytime I reboot the System (Or I turn it OFF/ON) my energy saver section in the System Preferences doesn't show the power adapter tab (IMG1) and resets me the settings. After unlocking ( with the button on the bottom left of the window ) the tap appears (IMG2) and I can edit the preferences without any problem. They remain perfect even after the sleep.

Did anyone also noticed a strange battery drain especially at startup?
