[BUG] Black screen 3 minutes after booting, CoffeeLake UHD 630

Did you try CPUPM but with non-HWP SMBIOS, like MacBookPro11,1?

Yes with same SMBIOS and HWPenable(in config.plist) disabled.

Attach PR files that show this setup.

Note: Clover HWPEnable is useless... should never be used.

Problems/suggestions/etc:
- HECI should be renamed IMEI
- battery status not implemented
- need SATA-unsupported.kext for proper AHCI kexts to load (see Probook repo)
- your USB configuration is wrong (see USBInjectAll/SSDT-UIAC guide)
- audio not implemented

So we are at the stage of choosing between CPUPM and Sleep

You can follow this guide for HWP + X86PlatformPlugin. I did and had 0 problems with sleep but P States are very less as compared to PluginType=True, so I'll be using that.
AppleLPC, x86PlatformPlugin, AGPMController everything loads in ioreg using the above mentioned guide as it uses a combo of PluginType=True and HWP.

Thank you very much. My OS is on NVME SSD. Do I need SATA unsupported or the nvme kexts? And I cant understand a thing about the audio which I very much want implemented on my device. There are several guides but they go over my head because they are short and i can't make much sense out of them. Working on battery right now.

No need for HWPEnable in Clover. By using an HWP enabled SMBIOS, macOS itself (X86PlatformPlugin) will enable HWP.

Your ioreg shows the SATA controller is active.

Easy way is AppleALC if it supports your codec.

Note: HECI->IMEI is a very important patch.

And I hope MacBookPro15,2 is HWP enabled?

That was one of the things I couldn't make sense of. Where do I find which codec I am using. Went through all the properties of audio driver in windows. couldn't find which codec i was using.
