It's up to you. But as long as you just take someone else's EFI/installation without any understanding of your machine and its specificities and then the appropriate adaptations for its specificities, you will not get a 100% reliable and stable hackintosh.

It's in the "config.plist" file of your OpenCore directory. Edit this "config.plist" file with an appropriate tool like ProperTree ( https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree ). As an advice I would recommend when you're modifying/experimenting with OpenCore config: 1. to get a backup of your EFI...

Unfortunately it's no more possible to disable it at BIOS level on this generation of Thinkpads. But you could try to disable it within Opencore config. As trackpoint is managed by VoodooPS2Mouse.kext and trackpad by VoodooPS2Trackpad.kext. Under Kernel > Add, at entry...

L380 with Monterey is pretty stable. I had better battery life result (4h - 4h30) by setting in BIOS ASPM managed by OS rather than by BIOS. And also with CPUFriend ( https://github.com/stevezhengshiqi/one-key-cpufriend ) set at 800Mhz minimal frequency and using "battery optimized" setting...

I've swapped the drive from a WD Black to a WD Blue (model SN570 1TB) Power states (from smartctl): Supported Power States St Op Max Active Idle RL RT WL WT Ent_Lat Ex_Lat 0 + 4.20W 3.70W - 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 + 2.70W 2.30W - 0 0 0 0...

Hi molko1234, Yeah two drive bay is good thing, it is something I really miss on the L380. I did spot the L380 as a good hackintosh candidate with upgrable ram up to 32GB, because the possibility to get unlocked and fully featured BIOS in order to make it as much as possible the most...

Maybe there might be some room for power consumption improvement on PCIe/NMVE side with ASPM. And perhaps it could be an explanation of different battery life before/after sleep, like the SSD is on a different level of power state after sleep... This just a guess. On my SSD, from smartctl...

My battery has got quite the same wear level as yours at 3521mAh full capacity. It's interesting as we can compare our installations and battery consumption. Edit: if battery life is better after sleep on your laptop, that would mean that something is flawed, either something that doesn't...

Thanks for the notice :) I did not remember about sleepimage... but I did that with my previous hackinstosh in 2018. Update #3: With CPUFriend + CPUFriendDataProvider at LFM "800 Mhz" and EPP to "Balance performance" (thanks to one-key-cpufriend ), now I can reach CPU frequencies down to...

Some updates #2: some troubles with laptop rebooting/crashing during sleep and leading to bios error reporting are avoided by post-installation advices from: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/universal/sleep.html#preparations trackpoint scrolling was buggy. It is fixed with...

Some updates: YogaSMC enables thinkpad hotkeys and some LEDs: mic mute (+mic mute LED), external display switch, wifi toggle ON/OFF, system preference shortcut, bluetooth toogle ON/OFF, keyboard toggle ON/OFF, and CapLock Led. SD card reader works with RealtekCardReader and...

Hello, and thanks for sharing your EFI folder. I've tested it on my L380 and it is a very good starting point for MacOS on L380. I'm gonna make more feedbacks later after deeper testing/tweaking. I had troubles with sleep/suspend (under Big Sur), like unattended wake from sleep and it seems...

From the article: So, - IF Apple decides to use this new gen Intel CPU and - IF Apple decides to use the wifi part of the CPU ... THEN maybe there will have a possibility to get a MacOS driver for that generation of new CPU with integrated wifi chips only. So only for hackintoshs equiped with...

Thanks, that's very interesting. From this source: https://github.com/acidanthera/VirtualSMC/blob/fe1a59bb089c69a93a5936db671eb8f7c245b539/Sensors/SMCBatteryManager/ACPIBattery.cpp SMCBatteryManager tries first to get information from BIX and get BIXCycleCount, and if no BIX method available...

1. Maybe the solution for hackintosh laptops would be to do like for hackintosh desktops: to select and choose only hardware that are the most compatible to be hackintoshed (that would mean to not try to hackintosh one that has wifi whitelist) 2. yeah, I've bought a M.2 BCM94352Z for 22€ . Yeah...

I think your problem has maybe nothing to do with HiDPI and is probably off-topic here, it could be related to something else... You should read: - 1st about overscan issues : https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/fuzzy-blurry-monitor-fixed.212701/ - 2nd about "OS X thinks my monitor is a TV" ->...

Thanks for this feedback. This helped solving my problem.

Don't forget some laptops from Lenovo and HP which have a whitelist in BIOS regarding WLAN cards... Hopefully for Thinkpads, it's not more the case on models from 2015 and after.

i5 8210Y is a CPU, not a wifi chipset. The only real hope in this "Intel WiFi Driver Effort" would come by getting several people working on it by actively coding the driver and reverse engineering Intel and Apple drivers. And not just letting all the load and expectations on the shoulders of...

Hi RehabMan, It seems it has changed in Mojave... I was reading your guides for both USB port limiting and also USB power injector to tune my installation of Mojave. Thanks to your great tutorials that help to understand the all the logic, I checked there: cat...
