[Guide] HP ProBook/EliteBook/Zbook using Clover UEFI hotpatch

[hiep95]

Yeah, I used your version of Clover. It's rock solid ! I tested FileVault on Mojave but no keyboard or touchpad on boot screen. I don't know what EFI driver I really need but I will research.

Hi, did you successfully enable FileVault?

Updated the ACPI first and then the .plist per the guide post #1. I now have sound again. What I do find odd is how I was able to do the in-place upgrade from Sierra to High Sierra and nothing had to be updated.

Not odd. More stuff changed in Mojave, requiring additional changes to config.plist and ACPI and kexts installed.

Should updating the ACPI and .plist file be updated as well when doing an update?

Your question is answered in post #1, "System updates".

It will provided you discharge it below 92%, such that the EC will again start charging, ... and you continue to charge it until it reaches 100% If you remove the charger at 98%, then plug the charger back in, it will not charge as the current charge is more than the 92% threshold. This is done to reduce the number of cycles on your battery, which helps it last longer. It also has nothing to do with the software... it is in an EC firmware function.



If your modifier keys are behaving strangely, do an EC reset.



You can install the sensor kexts:

ok, thanks for info master !

Now i have another problem.
I bought SSD drive and cloned hdd data and transfered to ssd using Carbon Copy Cloner.

Tried to boot for the first time - no success.

 boot task failed fsck-safe

Solved by following this guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-sudden-unable-to-boot.236168/#post-1620051

But now i have another problem - no sound.
Tried to fix by following this guide: - no success

Audio: After installing new/updated kexts or after the initial installation, you may lose audio.

To fix:
- reboot without caches (hit space at Clover, select without caches)
- rebuild cache
Code (Text):

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

- reboot normally (if needed, two times)

After running "sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /" in terminal i saw lot of errors:
"Kext with invalid signatured (-67062) allowed:..." & etc

What i forgot to mention - now screen brightnes working by pressing F2,F3 (without Fn key) - but yesterday it was not working at all :/

you are talking about applealc branch ?
I used this branch after installing Mojave (post-installation stuff). Now all problems appeared after moving data from HDD to SSD

This (must read carefully):

Note: I have tested it with the two laptops I have: 4530s (works fine), 4540s (works with a 'fixed' AppleALC.kext, which you can build from sources provided on my github or use the attached kext). Eventually, the official AppleALC.kext will have that fix in it. For other laptops, I depend on your feedback.

I just tried to use attached kext - not working :/

Use the gen_debug.sh tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.
