[Guide] Lenovo Z50-70/Z40-70/G50-70/G40-70 using Clover UEFI

Tried this guide, but I can't get AppleALC to show up in Hackintool. I've put the kext in the Kernel section in the config.plist file, too. AppleHDA, Lilu, Whatever get loaded, but AppleALC doesn't, so I can not continue with the tutorial.

EDIT: Got AppleALC in the extensions tab, but nothing in the Sound tab.

Same here. Tried everything, but AppleALC does not load. As soon as I remove VoodooHDA.kext, sound is gone. Webcam is working though...

I got AppleALC to show up in the Hackintool. Just update the kexts to the latest version.
I get infinite Apple logo after rebuilding kextcache and installing kexts in /L/E. I also did reset NVRAM, but no luck

AFAIK, AppleALC is not supposed to be placed in L/E. Maybe that's why you're having the boot issue...
Downloaded the latest version of the kext. Still no joy...

Yes, I was thinking about that, too. Just followed the guide...
Try updating every kext, this is how it worked for me.
 
Hello,

here is my last EFI -Open Core- with AppleALC
Screenshot 2020-04-11 at 20.09.47.png

you may have forgotten the boot command alcid=28.
Code: 
<key>boot-args</key>
<string>alcid=28 brcmfx-country=#a</string>

I also got rid of a large DSDT file

Great. Thanks!
It seems that my brightness keys are not working now. I know I previously fixed this by applying Windows 8 OS Check fix. In which SSDT should I apply this? I may be wrong, too.

SSDT-BKeyQ11Q12-LenovoAir.aml

also after every change of anything - NVRAM must be cleaned at boot. It may get stuck once, but it works every time after

Well, it seems that I missed that file. Thanks, I will clean NVRAM after this.
Edit: Nah, I can not apply it there. Also, brightness slider does nothing in the settings. Do you know what could be?

I have no idea. That patch is from here.

I tried both VoodooPS2Controller.kext & ApplePS2SmartTouchPad.kext


maybe something obvious and simply is a mistake:rolleyes:

No, it does not work neither this way.
However, this was working with your previous EFI zip. Everything seemed to work ok (except it was using VoodooHDA instead of AppleALC)
