[Solved] Lenovo y520 intel hd 630 7 mb

[AmrEsam]

Hi, this is my first time hackintoshing.
Everything works out of the box like function keys, media controls and power management.
I've tried every guide there is and every time on a clean vanilla installation but no matter what I do, it always shows only 7 mb of graphics.
No matter what ig-plateform, SMBOIS and fakeID I change, it doesn't boot except with the config.plist file in this report in the attachment.
All I want is the Intel graphics to show (and actually work with) its full vram and I assume hardware acceleration would do too.
Could someone help me with this?
Thank you.

best to check over an appropriate config.plist from the guide:

MacBookPro14,1 would also be a better option

I don't really know what to do except that I manually put the hotpatch folder contents in ACPI/patched and copied the config.list to my clover.
The progress bar came to around 50% and rebooted, tried in verbose to see anything related, it moved so fast and rebooted.
Could you share your clover folder in EFI to see the differences between it and mine since I'm clearly a noob?

This is the ONLY config that can my laptop boot in the OS.

Basically, do everything mentioned in this guide but using the Y520 repo.
Keep in mind that you'll need to type 'make install_y520' instead of 'make install_z50' or 'make install_g50'.

Do I need to clear my clover or something? if so, what specifically?

I would only install latest Clover. Rest is automatically handled by the repo scripts.

I installed clover form the beginning, did all the steps from the guide and correctly, still doesn't boot.
Should I do a fresh OS install and try with the guide again maybe something in S/L/E or L/E doesn't work correctly (I don't know) or it doesn't really matter?

Good idea. Start over and follow the guide (with respect to the Y520 repo).

After a clean install and following the guide with the Y520 repo, doesn't boot.
BTW.. the ig-platform-id and IntelGFX FakeID are empty in the config.plist. Is that what it supposed to be after following that guide?
Also, SMBIOS is empty except for the product name which is MacBookPro14,1. Every other field is empty.
