    Inspiron 5523 - Ultrabook 15z i7-3517u

    *update* Using jcarcinogen's OP as I mentioned above and also 'an idiot's guide to iMessage', I have successfully updated my system to MacBookAir 5,2 and am now able to successfully boot without issues. Below are a few things that I need to work on; 1. Modify the DDST/SSDT to my hardware 2...

    Inspiron 5523 - Ultrabook 15z i7-3517u

    Just to update on my 'Sierra' build. Through lots of reading I stumbled upon jcarcinogen's OP for his Inspiron 7559 and figured I would give it a try. After a few attempts and some trial and error I am now up and running in Sierra. Now I know this is not perfect and will need a fair bit of...

    Inspiron 5523 - Ultrabook 15z i7-3517u

    So in keeping with my 'Diary' in hopes that I can refer back if I need to, I thought I would update my status on my Dell build and the things I have tried so far. 1. My Carbon copy failed as it seems that it didn't include the EFI folder and no mountable drive was found. Weird though is when...

    Inspiron 5523 - Ultrabook 15z i7-3517u

    So I am trying to create the installer and have tried both my kids machines to do this. Yosemite and El Capitan in unibeast are greyed out on both machines. On both I went to the App Store and the only available dl was Sierra. I tried dl'ing that on both machines, confirmed it to be in the...

    Thank you RehabMan! I assume that this will also carry the 'EFI' partition over as well?

    Been a while since I have been on here...reverted back to Win (don't ask me why!) and having a mb die on me I am back at putting OSX back on my system. Here is my question; Before removing my, nearly, fully functional Hack (clover) I had used carbon copy to make a final copy of the drive to a...

    This is definitely turning into a full-time hobby! So I was working through the iMessage 'how to' today and realized that I don't have any PCI cards detected. I have read enough instructions today to make my head hurt. I have the AR9280 and wifi worked oob. What I am not sure of now is...

    This is what happens when I let the system boot without f12 or if using f12 and selecting HD1 or HD2. I suspect that the mSata is interfering boot0: GPT boot0: test boot0: test boot0: GPT boot0: test boot0: test boot0: error_ I've also; 1. Disabled 'Rapid Start Technology' 2...

    Sometimes I kick myself for these kinds of things...thanks for the help, found the trackpad option; missed that one. Okay, I do have another one that I haven't been able to figure out yet. Originally I had the following drive setup which I had posted about because I am unable to boot...

    Inspiron 5523 - Ultrabook 15z i7-3517u

    Okay, sometimes I am just an idiot. I figured out my keyboard issue; which turned out not to be an issue at all. I am attaching the IOReg as directed. The only issue left is the tap/select on the trackpad...if that's something that can be fixed. The left and right 'mouse' buttons on the...

    Sorry...'Extended' - was just another keyboard that I added and tried to see if it made a difference. It was listed as US Extended. The touchpad, according to my hw report is listed simply as 'Dell Touchpad'. Not sure that helps you. The Keyboard is also simply listed as 'Standard PS2...

    Inspiron 5523 - Ultrabook 15z i7-3517u

    Just a quick (hopefully) question. I am still working out a few of the kinks in the system and one of them is my keyboard/trackpad. The issue with the keyboard is that I don't have a full keyboard, meaning that it is not showing as extended. The trackpad works well with two-finger scrolling...

    As always, thank you for the information. This build would not have been possible without your knowledge and support! I have installed the VoodooHDA which is working, though as you indicated, not the best, but its sound non-the-less until I can build a patched AppleHDA. Now comes the rest...

    Are any of the MB Realtek or Universal patches known to work in a pinch until I can work through the AppleHDA patch or is this just wishful thinking?
