This is such an excellent guide thank you carpentryplus25
Once I realised I could follow your template without understanding I jumped in and have more or less got ready to test and troubleshoot, yet am stuck at a schoolboy error of kextcache cleaning.
iv'e not found any reference to this error in google so have tried NVRAM and kext cache cleanup tool which does not do this job,
so before I even get to test it I think I should clean my cache properly and then see where im at....
any ideas here?

The issue here that you are having is you have a card that doesn't have the same number of ports as macOS expects. You must use one of the two AMD8000Controller frame buffers for that card. You need to change only the first four port connectors, clover will not patch the data if the length of data doesn't match. So in your custom frambuffer patch you are missing some bytes of data from the last two ports macOS expects. So clover isn't applying any patch. You are telling clover to do this.
Clover is very good at changing data of the same length, but clover cannot change data length never ever is this possible not with any boot loader is modifying binary data length possible.
Hi after multiple tries I got it working with HDMI and DP port, but I still have DVI-D Flickering issues. Since I wanted full acceleration with H.264 Hardware Encoding I even patched Intel HD 630 Injects.
When I use the Baladi and patch the above Framebuffer you asked me to replace. Im getting it to work with a single monitor but the minute I connect my second monitor to the DP port both the monitors goes black until I remove the monitor from DP and do a hard restart.
Right now the issue is when I boot with dual monitor (HDMI and DP) it boots to black screen but if I remove connection from DP and reboot, it boots perfectly fine and then I connect my second monitor to the DP port It Works out of the blue!! (This is for "Lagatto" as Framebuffer and patch on AMD9000Controller), I don't understand why I can't boot with both the monitors connected.
I have attached my Clover please take a look at it(Lagatto).

Hi there I am away from my machines at the moment and using mobile. I won’t be back to them until really late today. However I was wondering what macOS version you are using ?

Should this be showing both my internal(Intel HD 630) and Discrete Graphic cards?? I patched HD 630 for .h264 and now I have Hardware Decoders working I don't know if its taking my Intel HD 630 or ATI Radeon Graphic Card for Video Decoding.
Hi, Im having trouble constructing a working LVDS connector patch. the bios decoder output shows FF as hotplugID, I tried 00, but boot hangs at IOscreenlockstate. attached is a bios file and decoder output.
<edit> got it working in Sierra with the following buri lvds patch
Hi guys! I'm here to find, with you maybe, a solution
I have two Sapphire AMD 7770 GHz Edition 1GB on two different PC. It's a good vga until Sierra. From High Sierra I got some problems but only on one of these... I explain it better
first build working: i7-3770 - Asrock H77 Pro4/Mvp (uefi)
second build not-working: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 - LGA 775 Gigabyte GA-G41M-COMBO rev.2 (legacy bios with high sierra installed with the mbr patch!)
on the first build I simply use lilu kext and WGreen with boot argument on clover "radpg=15" and everything's perfect.
on the second build this method doesn't work. I really don't know why... my only hypothesis is the different motherboard (one is uefi and the other one is not...)
anyway... many months ago I did it works on the second build, always on HSierra, but I can't remember how... maybe with the framebuffer or maybe with some kext from sierra? boh!
Now I'm trying to use this framebuffers method again because the problem it's just the black screen. I use the display port and sometimes also the hdmi to try it in a different way.
May you help me to make sure that I'm doing it well? I'm going to post everything down here:

I'm trying to use the NAMAKO Framebuffer but I really dunnow if it is the right one...

I put all of this on the usb clover that I use for booting because I never reach the desktop on this build. I already rebuilt the cache from single user but still black screen... why? any suggestions?

not yet dude. i'm waiting for someone here to see my post and tell me about my patch code in the meantime I think there is another way that is to use the old kext from osx sierra! I will try it later
