Hello everyone,
Over the last couple of days i've been working on getting my T460S to run high sierra.
Initially the installation process went smooth (except for me, missing apfs+ efi drivers, to load the newly installed disk)..
First boot:
- Audio worked,
- Screen ran at full resolution (2560x1440), but with lots of artifacts. - I had to inject fake ig-platform-id to make it even boot (thanks, rehabman!)
- Trackpad and thinkpadnipple worked
Now, after looking through numerous threads i've managed to get full QE/CI and no artifacts.
Only backlight remains to be resolved.
Thus far i've been using a cloverconfig based on rehabsmans skylake-config, but modified by a user on a german hackintosh forum (whom was hacking his T460s).
It seems as if he's injected a custom igpu-id of some sort, that excludes/overrides both fake-id and ig-platform-id.
This has solved my artifacts, but introduced an odd issue.
When i boot, i reach a backlit, black screen. I then close the lid for a few seconds, not long enough for it to sleep, but long enough for it to turn off the screen. When i then open it again i'm promted by the login-screen.
Besides that, like i mentioned, there is no backlight. I've gone through rehabmans "Laptop backlight control using applebacklightinjector.kext" guide, without luck.
At this point my guess is that, the screen i use, isn't recognized properly, and might need a patched EDID.?
I base this guess on inspection of clovers bootlog:
"
24:308 0:000 === [ FixBiosDsdt ] =======================================
24:308 0:000 VideoCard devID=0x19168086
24:308 0:000 DisplayADR1[0] = 0x20000, DisplayADR2[0] = 0xFFFE < shouldn't this be the product id?
"
I'm most likely messing something up,
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
