Psedog's Mod Pro. i7-8700K, Vega64, Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro Wifi

[psedog]

Hi Psedog, after reading USB threads regarding this build + Mojave, it is not quite clear to me yet what I should do to get my ports working accordingly to yours when you had Mojave installed. You don't happen to have your last working Mojave EFI (CloverEFI, not OpenCore) for me to compare to the one I'm using, do you? Thanks.

It's in the first post of this thread.

Has anyone tried the provided EFI with Catalina and RX 580?

WOOHOO!
Finally, USB ports are mapped, working, and not requiring the Injectall kext

I've updated the first two posts. Post 1 has my Clover folder. Post 2 has the instructions and SSDT/Kext (says it's invisible until moderator approved...) Until it gets approved I'll add it here too.

My setup has all the rear 3.0 ports as only 3.0 ports (no 2.0 fallback). 1 exception, the top port is 2.0 as well because my keyboard is plugged in there. It was causing my mouse to stutter when they shared the same 2.0 row.

Download Front IO.zip
Place these files in Clover/ACPI/patched

• SSDT-EC.aml
• SSDT-USBX.aml

*Place this file into your Kexts folder (very important)

• USBMap.kext

LAST step. Remove any USB kext patches you have as well as the USBINJECTALL kext. It's no longer needed

Here are the ports that I enabled. (remember we have a 15 port limit )

Instructions on how to do it yourself.

Youtube video explaining the procedure. Link

Edit: Added the information below

Spoiler: USB Port Cconfiguration

USB Configuration.
Here is my current USB Configuration and overall layout. Layout is written in the pictures. As you can see, some ports I have as USB 3.0 only and 1 rear port I have as 2.0 only even though it's a 3.0 port. That one I use for my mouse as my mouse and keyboard on the same USB 2.0 header were not happy and causing stuttering.

Note: Front USB3 port uses 3 address all by itself, due to how it handles reversing the connection. The rear port only requires two addresses though.

Ports I have enabled. (HS = USB2.0 / SS = USB 3.0+)
HS01 / SS01 + SS02
HS03
SS04
SS05
SS06
SS07
SS08
HS09 / SS09
HS10 / SS10
HS11
HS13

Layout
The pictures below show the layout. Use this to determine if my setup works for you. If not, then you can use this to gauge how you want to set yours up.

Hi man, would it be possible to get a copy of your EFI folder? I can't seem to get the front USB3 to work. They will work as USB2 but not USB3

Cabal, It's in the first post of this thread.

NEW EFI in the first post (Clover EFI 17Dec19). I have removed all APTIO Fix patches. VirtualSMC is working by itself. Unfortunately, unable to enable iGpu with a dGpu. If you want to have both cards enabled, go with iMac Pro1,1.

is iMac Pro 1,1 verified for igpu and dgpu working together with multiple monitors? i've been having issues since updating to Catalina getting this to play nicely. https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/dual-display-not-working-in-mojave.287437/. Even changing to iMac Pro 1,1 doesn't work for me at all.

@psedog yo what bios version are you on with that latest EFI? I have been trying to get 10.14.6 to install and boot for the last week on an aorus pro non wifi.

What fn key boots the bios on startup?!?! I just tried 7 through 12 and no luck, I feel like I'm going crazy...

So, I messed around with my plist in my EFI and now I can't boot up..
That said I do have a carbon copy of the EFI partition/.plist file, but I can't figure out how to replace the file. I have a windows 10 drive that I can boot up, and I have paragons APF's software so I can see the drives but I can't access the actual EFI portion.

Any one know some command line magic I could use to clone over the carbon copy EFI to the original EFI, or have any ideas how to get around?
