HP Probook Installer Clover Edition

I've been using the second option (MBPRO9,2 + mieze patch + plist) for about two weeks. Everything works fine. No need for GenericUSBXHCI. Rehabman is right. Unfortunately when I purchased my Probook I didn't have the knowledge. I don't know how things work in PBI CE but repatching the kext manually is not a big deal IMO. It takes about a minute.

You could probably build an injector kext instead of patching. Similar to what is done for AppleHDA...
 
I installed the latest version 6.2.13 on ProBook 4530s. After the update the USB ports seem underpowered. The mouse still works, but USB drive and iPhone gets connected for only 1 second, then disconnected, then connected again, disconnected again... Previous version worked fine. Could it be because the installer failed to generate SSDT? I found these in install.log:

Thank you. I appreciate your suggestion. I identified the missing parts in ioreg, I'll see what can I do.

Please run this in terminal and give me result:
Code:
ioreg -p IODeviceTree -c IOACPIPlatformDevice -k cpu-type -k clock-frequency | egrep name  | sed -e 's/ *[-|="<a-z>]//g'
 
I'm sure this has been asked multiple times, however couldn't search it through the forum...

1. What resolution does probook CE's Yosemite theme has? I believe I could replace it with this https://plus.google.com/+NattapongP...6027761884598154914&oid=104196173613585151128

2. Browsing through Clover options during boot, the text is unreadable unless you select them. Must've been a known issue I reckon for 4540s low resolution?

3. is there an automated way to retain your config.plist while installing probook CE? Its really pain to copy paste again with your customized plist. I believe there was discussion on that with sample script.

My specs are in signature and I have enabled UEFI Hybrid with CSM option in my bios.

ProBook 4330s i5-2520m HD3000 First install was succesfull after a few tries this was done on SSD with only USB3.0 not working unless you boot up with it. Second install onto SSHD goes to Black Screen after Apple Logo upon boot. This is after PBI was used with the exact same settings as per first install. Both installs happened on the same notebook just SSD to SSHD swap out
Since when are these hybrid SSD+HDD things, called SSHDs, supported on anything but Windows? Last time I checked, it's a proprietary SATA protocol used to communicate between the two disks in the same package and even Linux wasn't working with it, so if something changed, please let me know :)

Same here! Probe seems to eject it after 2 sec and reconnects. for me two usb ports work fine the other two has the same problem.

There is an issue with sound on my computer... after lots of restarts no luck. couple of times it actually worked but my screen was devided into 4 parts.. A restart and sound is gone........Help!

Update: i tried old Probook installer versions 6.212.2 and older, the usb port is not ejecting it frequently but if your computer goes to sleep mode and then wakes you again see the information about force ejection but it loads the flash drive again and works perfectly.

Sound is still not working..

SSHDs or hybrid SSD/HDD are really just normal SATA HDDs with an SSD cache. They appear to the OS as normal HDDs. Nothing proprietary at all.
 
Anyone know what probook is close to my laptop in spec?
