[Guide] Intel NUC7/NUC8 using Clover UEFI (NUC7i7Bxx,NUC8i7Bxx,etc)

[jimborae]

OK I'm back using using my NUC8i5BEH for Hackintosh again and just successfully updated to 10.15.4 latested release. I used Leesureone's EFI from page 90 but updated to Clover 5107 and also updated to the latest Lilu, WEG, AppleALC.

There are a few issues however:

1. Facetime & iMessage dont work.
2. Sound out of the front headphone jack is very low & distorted when set to max.
3. Onboard Wi-Fi & Bluetooth dont work obviously.

Hello everyone I also have the latest version of Catalina working everything works perfect, except bluetooth and wifi but I have a working bluetooth usb bought in amazon for 10 euros
My sound is perfect.
I used the EFI setting of Leesureone !!!!thank you very much it was perfect!!!!

I've updated my clover EFi folder today to include a kext that allows bluetooth to work, updated clover to latest and all kexts. Did you back up as recommended? See link for predate guidelines. Maybe its best to roll back to 15.3 for the time being. #2

Edit Confirmed everything still working with update to 10.15.4

Thanks, I will!

Any luck? I'll try and update my NUC7 later today and see if I run into any issues and report back.

Well when I say I updated to 10.15.4 I mean I did a clean install so there was nothing to backup. So no I didn't

It's not that important on this box as I'm just playing around with it & sound is working via USB dongle. So I'll try your reworked EFI and report back.

Many thanks as always.

So updated with your new EFI, bluetooth kind of works, dones't seem to like a both mouse & keyboard connected at the same time. However Ijust cant get Facetime & iMessage working. Facetime gives an error message about no account reachable. Followed guides to fix it but nothing has worked.
