Installing Sierra on Asus ZenBook UX410UA

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hello there,

It has been about 6 years ago since I last build a proper hackintosh, the machine I build that time is still running fine (still on Mavericks). In the meantime I have been using Windows.
Recently I bought a Asus ZenBook UX410UA, with an i5 7200U Kaby Lake CPU and Intel HD 620 graphics. (See my signature). I never really bought it with the intention to hackintosh it, but this week I wanted to try it out and it seems to work.

I successfully installed Sierra (wich took over 1 hour) with the 620 config file provided by Rehabman. First I got stuck in verbose with lots of repeating ACPI Errors, I forgot how I fixed that but later the errors came back.
Because my ZenBook isn't supplied with an ethernet port and the internal wifi card is unsupported (I already ordered a working alternative) I connected my Minix Neo C USB-C Multiport adapter to use the Ethernet port from that device, I only had to install a driver to make it work.
Well, now I'm stuck again with the ACPI Errors and don't know what to do.

These are de errors that keep repeating during verbose. I waited untill my screen was full of these errors.
ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC0_.BAT0.BIX] (Node ffffff801da98e98), AE_BAD_PARAMETER (20140828/psparse-270)
ACPI Exeption: EA_BAD_PARAMETER, Returned by Handler for [EmbeddedControl] (20140028/evregion-178)

So if anyone knows how to fix this, please tell me. In the meantime I will tryout a few things.
Also I have started to patch my DSDT, but It's more difficult than I was aware of.

I have started this topic with the intention to supply other people with a working DSDT and config file so they can easily convert their ZenBook into a hackintosh. But I really need help from you guys.
The UX410UA is basically the same as the UX310UA, the only difference is the screen size.

I will attach my config file, native DSDT and BIOS settings for those who are willing to help :)

My KEXT folder on the EFI drive looks like this
ACPIBatteryManager.kext
IntelBacklight.kext
AHCIPortInjector.kext
IntelGraphicsFixup.kext
AppleALC.kext
Lilu.kext
AppleATIATA.kext
SATA-100-series-unsupported.kext
FakePCIID.kext
USBInjectAll.kext
FakePCIID_Intel_HD_Graphics.kext
VoodooPS2Controller.kext
FakeSMC.kext
VoodooTSCSync.kext
IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector.kext
XHCI-200-series-injector.kext

Hi,

What about keyboard lights ? is it working?
I have a similar laptop UX430UA and keyboard lights not working(display brightness works perfect).

Can you upload you CLOVER directory?

Thx
 
Hi,
Yes, the performance is better than W10. I can't explain why, must have something to do with structural OS differences.

I'm running Sierra for over to month's now and I'm pretty happy with it. There are a few things I have to fix like trackpad and sleep that is not working properly for same reason.
I will post about that later.



Yes, I have been on a holiday :) Will get back to hackintoshing very soon ;)

Yes! Thank you! I try to install macOS 10.12.6! I don't know exactly audio codec used on this laptop and I follow this tutorial
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...10uak-macos-sierra-installation-guide.224591/
, patch audio codec -> reboot laptop and there's no sound but the screen still displays volume control when I press volume up/down button! When I patch keyboard light or fix disabled touchpad from sleep, my laptop stucks at loading with many white characters lines! @@ Waiting full tutorial from you!
 
Maybe you need CodecCommander.kext, but forgot to install it.
How do I know my laptop's audio codec? And I got problem! I patch keyboard light and fix touchpad ELAN 1200 then I reboot! My laptop stucks at loading screen with many white character lines! Is it kernel panic?

Obtain audio codec dump from Linux.

No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.

I obtained audio codec dump from Ubuntu! My codec is "Coxenant Generics" at Address 0 and "Intel HD Kabylake" at Address 3! Coxenant Generics is not exactly what kind of Coxenant codec! :|
 

Look for patched AppleHDA for Conexant 0x1f72.
Note:
Code:
Vendor Id: 0x14f11f72
