I have issue with Wifi : my laptop is Hp 820 G2, Broadwell i5 5300U, HD5500, bought Broadcom BCM94350ZAE DW1820A CN-08PKF4, Wlan+BT4 NGFF used the guide and booted very well, everything working except Wifi and Bluetooth is kinda on but not fully working - as i don't see airdrop on the finder sidebar,

Attached all the files, following the reporting in FAQ.

Just picked up a 4540s and popping an Ivy i5 3340m in it as well as a compatible WiFi card. It has 8GB of RAM and an SSD.

my question is this, is that still a perfectly usable machine in 2019 specs wise and is Hackintosh stable enough for work use these days as I’ve been throwing money at Apple for a few years now so haven’t really kept up with it all

Hello everyone,
After several failed installations of Mojave on my HP Probook 640 G1 I'm almost giving up.

I've went through the installation, then on the following restart it starts on the installation with the progress bar and it ends. The next restart it always fail.
Does anyone have such a laptop with Mojave which can zip CLOVER folder to compare with mine and try to figure out what am I doing wrong.
I con't know much about this matters, but I would be grateful to have hackintosh installed.

I've configured the same way a pendrive with High Sierra and installed on first try, so what can be wrong with Mojave?

I think so, in fact Ivy was the last generation where Apple used the standard intel skus (no iris gpu and such) so its probably the most vanilla architecture to work with..

Not sure if I'm getting it or not though, worst eBay seller ever. No comms, still not received it after a week.......itching to get it done. Watching a couple of 840's G1/G2 for around the £100 mark but just investigating how much (if at all) more difficult they are in comparison to the Ivy 4540s.

I see you have a 840 G1 yourself, stable enough? Any particular issues experienced not raised in the guide?

Very stable, i'm on a g2 actually been for 2 years. I would recomment g1 though, far cheaper wifi cards and not much difference in real world performance just lower battery times. Undervolt the processor for maximum efficiency (feature only avaiable on haswell or newer). Id say that worst can happen is wifi turning off and having to use windows to turn it back on.

I bought a DW1550/BCM94352HMB as recommended on here, is it better to grab a G1 to go with that card then? G2 a different interface or does it have a whitelist? I'm stuck in limbo for a minute waiting on this 4540s....if it's even been sent. Expected to be immersed in geek paradise by now :(
