for audio, try different layout id. maybe 0D000000. for sleep wake issues, try this read then report back

Hey there,
Remember when I said I got my sleep wake issue fixed two days ago? Well, I thought it was fixed at first, but then now every time I wake up my laptop after closing the lid, it would just be a black screen (no cursor, nothing). The entire thing is frozen just like before. I don't know but I probably did smt wrong with the SSDT-GPRW, and I'm not really sure what is the problem. Can you help me out with this?

It should be in your bios, assuming we have similar ones since your laptop is mine's little brother. There are settings there relevant to fn options & I've done exactly that before

thank you, it turned out that I toggled the fn lock off with fn+Esc, but now it's all good
 
@Mrgeque @sebasinparis
Is the Dell Inspiron battery supposed to drain very fast on macOS? I know my battery isn't really that good but it's draining way faster than when I'm on windows. It's draining like 2% per minute

did you add the ssdt-GPRW to your config.plist? did you add the patch that accompanies it?

There's a fix for the headphones. I had it working with these same settings when I had clover but opencore killed codeccommander. Our proper audio codec is 13, not 77. You'll have to redownload AppleALC & move the alc-verb exec to usr/local/bin. Run the install.sh from the ALCPlugFix folder I've provided & Reboot. Afterwards, run
alc-verb 0x19 0x707 0x24 & alc-verb 0x1a 0x707 0x20 in your terminal and you should be good to go :). Make sure to apply the audio-related changes from my plist file. This should work for every reader here with Inspiron models of our generation with the ALC3254/ALC95 codec. Also included is an aml file that turns the prtscrn key into a functional F13 key which can then be used as a shortcut.

So Dell includes numerous Fn key secondary shortcuts. Most of them that would translate to macOS work natively. You guys should try them to see if they work. But the power-related ones would put my device into this really odd instantaneous sleep state that would sometimes require a reboot. Now it works with the included fn-insert.aml & it's companion DSDT patch. Pressing fn+insert now puts it to sleep like it's supposed to & crtl+insert brings up the dialog box which lets you pick between power states. I also disabled the GPU entirely because I'm convinced it was subtly turning on at some point during sleep or wake resulting in this abysmal battery life & standby time. Seems to have improved things, I think. Here are the files, I hope this helps somebody.

Do you have to run alc-verb 0x19 0x707 0x24 & alc-verb 0x1a 0x707 0x20 in terminal every time you reboot?

you can add that to:
github.com

GitHub - Sniki/ALCPlugFix: An updated version of ALCPlugFix for Lenovo ThinkPad(s) with Realtek ALC3232 Audio Codec

An updated version of ALCPlugFix for Lenovo ThinkPad(s) with Realtek ALC3232 Audio Codec - Sniki/ALCPlugFix
github.com github.com

and build it and then use ALCPlugFix installed to /usr/local/bin

saves you having to type out that code on every boot

not sure why your laptop is draining so fast, but Im using 4k res and I still get around 4hrs on a battery that only has 73 percent capacity. you can try using cpufriend and setting the profile to Energy Saving. My cpuFriend is set to perform as fast as possible with the best battery life available. since I mainly use my laptop on AC power, I don't really keep an eye on the battery

can you give me an idea of how to do so please?
Click to expand...
click on green code button from the link and download zip

open main.m with a text editor or xcode

find:
Code: 
void fixAudio(){
    NSLog(@"Fixing...");
    NSString *output1 = [[binPrefix stringByAppendingString:@"hda-verb 0x1a SET_PIN_WIDGET_CONTROL 0x24"] runAsCommand];
}

and you will need to amend and add in your values and save the file

then in terminal, navigate to the folder and enter in:
Code: 
xcodebuild -target ALCPlugFix

then you can install:
Code: 
sh ./install.sh

or do a clean boot and in terminal try:
Code: 
hda-verb 0x1a SET_PIN_WIDGET_CONTROL 0x24

and see if that fixes your audio, if so then you don't need to edit anything, just install
