[Guide] Lenovo ThinkPad T440

[Sniki]

hi,
so did you updated the files ?
and what about mac os mojave, are there any big issues(except the beta related) or can I upgrade my t440.

thx for help

Im not having time to update yet, most of the files are ready but i need a few more tweaks.
I won't be giving ETAs anymore as im failing to keep my promises, i kept saying this weekend over 10x so far and usually failed to do so.

About macOS Mojave i haven't tried on my T440s but just on my V330 & B570e, i don't know yet how it should work. (Although i expect no issues aside from 2-3 kextpatches find/replace patches that needs to be added).

okay, thx for your time effort.
if you want I can test the files.

okay, maybe I also give a try and give a feedback.

thx

I just learned how to maintain my Repositories on Github because im new/beginner there.
I did watch a video and maintaining them on Xcode was really easy. Internet has made our life so much easier.

Now everything should be much easier to maintain, update, fix, in much shorter time.
Im just creating folders now and adding the files there, I will try to update the files there and create a repo for each laptop that I patch.

Im back at hackintosh now as I didn't have a proper Hackintosh machine for some time, that's why i was out of this for a while.

Hi,

That’s sounds good, looking forward for this big update.
Will you post your GitHub repo in this guid ?

(few post ago) my usb power problem somehow resolved by itself.
Did you have any updates about the sd card reader?

Thx

Yes i will post the github repo, will add additional informations as some people are still having trouble to find kexts, iasl etc.
Now i also have the resources of my patched ALC3232.kext which thanks to rehabman tools i can build the injector myself with his appleha patch script.
Also i did some code optimizations and removed some unnecessary stuff which should lead to a cleaner and more optimized setup.

Card reader is work in progress, now someone else took the work and is trying to complete it.
He stated that even after wake from sleep works now so he fixed that but there are still a lot of bugs on the kext that he needs to fix.
So im optimistic that he should be able to complete it.

Big thx again for your time and efforts .

That’s big news, now have to restart my laptop everytime if I want to use sd card reader.

Did you know if the T440 have i2c support ?
I have read about voodooI2c that it have better multitouch.
The requirement is a 4 Gen. Intel cpu. so the T440 should support ?

Thx

I believe the T440s models that have touchscreen are the models with I2C touchpad and touchscreen.
If you can find a used/damaged to get his touchpad replacement, that should be fine and supposedly should work but i assume that the voodoops2controller.kext is more optimized than the I2C yet.

Hello @Sniki

Thank you very much for the guide, very helpful and now I have my laptop with macOS High Sierra.

I have followed your instructions on this thread, and managed to install the macOS, but have the following problem:
1. I already install Clover bootloader on post installation, but when booting Mac OS X, no disk shown in Clover bootloader. While if I use my USB, the disk shows and I can boot to High Sierra.
2. I use the DW1560 WiFi/BT card. The WiFi is detecred, but no BT. I have put all the kext as per your guide, including the kextcache command. Any advise?
3. My trackpad and touchpad also works, but on my touchpad I cannot register a right click, but I can scroll using 2 fingers. I have used VoodooPS2(Tluck) as per your guide.
4. No sound coming out, even though ALC2323.kext already installed in the same installation process as the other kext.
5. No battery icon can come out on my top bar. Should I work with Native Laptop Power Management Guide in order to achieve this?

Need help. Thank you.

Hello @Sniki

Apologize for not reporting in complete manner.

I have attached the debug file for review.

The progress I have made:
1. I can now boot (problem is on apfs.hfi and config.plist on EFI)
2. My trackpad can work, for all gestures.
3. Audio works.
4. Battery Icon now present.
5. WiFi works. But BT does not. It does not comes out in Bluetooth section of System Report.
6. Also, Card Reader does not. I understand that Card Reader sometimes cannot work (reading from the forum), but if I can make it on my machine, why not.

Can you help on the BT and card reader?

Thank you in advance for your help.
