So i grabbed the efi from user named Vejtarn from his post, he has nearly the same specs so i thought it might just work. Though when booted trackpad and wifi card wouldnt work, of course i added the kexts to the config.plist and edited wifi card properties in system properties. Any help apreciated!

Wifi card: Atheros AR9565
Touchpad: ELAN 1100 (I2C)

using a DSDT from another laptop is wrong

not sure why you are using voodoohda and applealc for?

Brcm* kexts have no bearing on your wifi card

USBPorts.kext is something you have to create yourself on your own laptop

AsusNBFnKeys.kext has been superseded with AsusSMC.kext

you will have to patch for your own trackpad or check over:
https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/Laptops/trackpad-methods/manual.html

pretty much all of this will have to be re generated using hackintool for your own system:

try replacing FakeSMC and all those sensors and ACPIBatteryManager kext with VirtualSMC and SMCBatteryManager.kext

lilu.kext should be first on your list in your config.plist

try replacing FakeSMC and all those sensors and ACPIBatteryManager kext with VirtualSMC and SMCBatteryManager.kext

lilu.kext should be first on your list in your config.plist

um this might sound dumb but i tried the trackpad guide and i dont know what to do because what i found in dsdt.dst is kinda complicated this is what i got:


Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized) // _STA: Status { If ((GPMN == Zero)) { Return (Zero) } If (((OSYS == 0x07DC) && (SMD0 == One))) { Return (Zero) } If ((OSYS < 0x07DC)) { Return (Zero) } Return (0x0F) Return (0x0F) } } }

should i just set GPMN to "one", OSYS to something above 0x07DC and SMDO to "zero"? in the new SSDT of course
