Acer Aspire F5-573G - High Sierra

[mrandre]

Hello

The system High Sierra was successfully installed on my laptop:

Acer Aspire F5-573G
Intel® Core™ i7-7500U (Kaby Lake-U/Y)
Intel® HD Graphics 620 and GeForce 940MX
8GB Micron 4ATF51264HZ-2G3B1 DDR4-2400 (1200 MHz)
Realtek RTL8168/8111
Realtek ALC255

My file SSDT-DiscreteSpoof.aml:

DefinitionBlock ("", "SSDT", 2, "hack", "spoof", 0)
{
    Method(_SB.PCI0.RP01.PXSX._DSM, 4)
    {
        If (!Arg2) { Return (Buffer() { 0x03 } ) }
        Return (Package()
        {
            "name", Buffer() { "#display" },
            "IOName", "#display",
            "class-code", Buffer() { 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF },
        })
    }
}

At, the moment:

- fixed the sound with AppleALC,
- fixed image display errors in the system,
- fixed wifi DW1707,
- working battery status,

- no working backlight adjustment

Hello,

I still have a problem with the screen backlight, I can not fix it.

Glad to know that i'm not the only one wrestling with (about) the same hardware.
Last time i tried, all i had was the Apple logo on my screen. It's very encouraging to know that others have gone steps farther.
I'm gonna follow your thread ...

Hello my friend. I was able to perform the hackintosh on my device after adding the EFI package that you have available. I am very grateful, because I already gave up the procedure, but now I feel like staying with the hack. I'm having some problems and I'd like to know how you solved this.

1 - wifi is not working
2 - in some applications the screen will flash
3 - I performed the procedure to add the kext AppleALC, however without audio
4 - backlight does not work
5 - touchpad does not work more than one click
6 - Were you able to get the GeForce 940MX to work?

I'm really grateful if you can help me
(I'm sorry for the mistakes, I used google translate)

Use the gen_debug.sh tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.

For audio, backlight, see FAQ...
