[SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

[CaseySJ]

Just to recap, the only concern I have right now is I'm not able to put my Fenvi to an X1 slot (just to X8 and X16) and also, the bluetooth audio-video sync/delay. Will changing the country code help in any way? Thanks so much as always mate!

I ordered a Fenvi FV-T919 recently. As soon as it arrives I'll test it in both x1 and x16 slots. Because I listed this in the Components section of the guide, I now have to own up to it!

I tried this config file, but actually I ended up in the same loop, unable to get to the desktop... Is it possible that I did something that just ruins everything? Some original setting I missed or I don't know what?

Do you have a discrete graphics card installed? If so, what is the make and model?

You may also (a) compress and upload the CLOVER folder and (b) a screenshot of your /Library/Extensions folder.

I don't have a discrete graphics card, it's all through the hdmi, that works but looks pretty bad and not fluent. also not recgonized by any of the uhd630 solutions I tired so far.

Im trying to regain access to my desktop with my bootloader and a time machine backup, I'll add the files when I fix it (unless there's a way to do it through the CBM or you might have an idea how to access it again)

Interesting that Apple is still using USB 2.0 for the lightning connector even on iPhone Xs. I believe the iPadPros from last 2017 and 2018 are both using USB 3.0 for faster I/O over lightning. I would expect the new iPhones to switch to USB 3.0 as well, especially if Apple decides to retire the lightning connector in favor of USB-C as they did on the 2018 iPadPro.

Nevertheless, I ordered an Apple lighting to USB-C cable that should arrive today so I can at least observe this weirdness for myself!

I bought this cable mainly to do fast charging using the 87w power adapter.

People are recommending this one instead, which works natively in Mojave:

Thanks for the tip. I just ordered the Syba card.

One more question:

How do you rename RX580 to AMD Radeon RX580?

Every country has specific frequency ranges and channels that routers sold there can transmit. The local laws are very different for each country. So if your country code says Singapore then your wifi card is looking for only those frequencies and the specific channels. The router you bought in the Phillipines probably doesn't match the Singapore specs. This is why you must change the country code to Phillipines (or at least a generic one) to get the wifi card working normally.

Thanks @trs96 for the quick reply. Weirdly, I also bought this router in Singapore last 2016. It's an Asus RT-AC87U. Would it still be applicable that I update my Wifi Country Code though it says SG which is (weirdly) also connecting to a router bought in SG? Hehe. Also, if so, did I actually need to change something in my router too to have it work better for my country (Philippines)?

Lastly, for changing the country code, am I on the right track with this link:

Thanks for taking time to answer my questions. I'm learning a lot. Cheers!

Wow thanks so much @CaseySJ I'm so overwhelmed with your dedication. Will be waiting for your review of it. But so far, other than the delay/sync in Bluetooth audio and the need to put it in a non X1 slot (it's currently at the bottom X8 slot at the moment), everything is working perfectly. And I'm especially in awe with my Magic Mouse and Keyboard working in BIOS, Clover and even Windows all automatically. It's like a dream! <3
