Wonderful guide Sniki! I bought a T440s i7 4600U 2.1ghz which is on the way through eBay. I might have lucked out as it appears that the BIOS is still on 2.32. If that is the case, would it be correct that if I update the BIOS to 2.36 and no higher, I can avoid the WiFi/BT adapter whitelist, and use one of your recommended adapters?

This will be my first attempt at a Hackintosh, and pretty excited. Thanks in advance!
Yes, exactly.
 
Hello and thank you for the great guide. I got everything to work, VGA, Mini DP-HDMI, Audio is working(internal + Headphones + HDMI). The only thing I could not do is the trackpad. For some reason, I cannot use the three-finger gestures, the trackpad is a bit unresponsive and scrolling is very slow. Other than that, All is Top Top.

PS: I'm using the old t440s trackpad, not the t450 one.

Code:
cd desktop/kexts

sudo cp -R *.kext /Library/Extensions/
Worked like a charm. I installed them in Library/Extensions, rebuilt cache, restarted and gestures are now working. Many thanks.
 
All: FYI - I got the BCM94360CS2 card installed with the adapter. I can confirm that it fits (height wise) without any issues on the T440s. However, as noted by others, there is a small bulge when the rear cover is installed. However, it's very minor and not very noticeable. It MIGHT cause issues with the dock connector, but I doubt it. I don't have a dock so I can't confirm, nor does it bother me. All of the screws work fine and the back snaps in just fine.

@Sniki As mentioned before, my USB problems are better, but not 100% fixed. I'm curious if yours also experienced some issues like mine had.
