My latest EFI folder has been uploaded a couple pages back. No changes since then.

The one additional note I'd make in your case is that I never had any framebuffer KPs, mine were mostly related to ACPI and/or USB until I increased the voltage, which then resulted in no panics. Suggest you increase your DVMT pre-alloc to 192MB (0x06) in setup_var and see if it akes a difference.
 
One other (minor) observation. I've had to resort to using older versions of ACPIBatteryManager, as the last two builds have caused erratic/sluggish trackpad behavio(u)r with VoodooI2C. Not sure if it's just my rig.
 
Kernel panic on Mojave, something wrong with graphic framebuffer, all modifications with DVMT are done and perfectly works on sierra. Problem reporting archive collected using a script in attachments.
Thanks!

Cannot use KextsToPatch for framebuffer patching in Mojave.
We use WhateverGreen based patching for it instead.

So you are using version 2017-10-01 v1.81.4? Had some erratic trackpad issues too, but only on battery, not on charging. I'm on 10.14.1
 
Left my xps 13 plugged in over night and running. Opened it today and this is how my screen now looks. Seems to be a hardware issue, anyone had something similar happening to them?

Been there before. Any heat and pressure on the screen can lead to that, temporarily. After a few hours of regular use, it should return to normal.

Yes - the older builds work fine on Mojave. Had issues with the newer builds when on battery. Not sure why as of yet.

I used to have that with the AC charger in hot weather. With the USB-C charger, the power delivered is lower (and thanks to undervolting, lower draw as well) so I've never had that since then.

Hi, jkbuha!
Now increased dvmt value 0x785 to 0x04, and trying your efi folder, but got error - "This version of mac os x not supported on this platform".

-no_compat_check did't help, just stuck on this black screen without any details

Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!

That's strange - did you get this error just by increasing the dvmt value?

Also remember that with my efi folder you will need to enter your own specific platform details, serial numbers etc. I deliberately remove them to ensure they don't get blocked etc.

Yep, strange, maybe i forgot to fill something except the SMBIOS?
