<< Solved >> ALC233 in Mojave

[Ryone]

will need to see your zipped clover folder

and also do this in terminal:

sudo kextcache -i /

and copy and paste the results here when you can

Here you go, thank you very much for your time! @Feartech

By the way, I have read that maybe AppleALC is not loading because I've installed it in CLOVER/KEXTS/Other. I've read this guide https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...an-sierra-high-sierra-mojave-catalina.268964/ and I think I know how to install it with Hackintool to /Library/Extensions, as suggested. Should I remove the kexts from Clover/kexts/Other when I do that?

Thanks again!

 

[Ryone]

Welp, it wasn't that also. I've installed the kexts to /Library/Extensions with Hackintool, and AppleALC is not loading either.

Thanks again!

keep your 3rd party kexts in clover, if you have installed any to /L/E, remove those (reading your other post!)

this bit:

<key>Audio</key>
        <dict>
            <key>Inject</key>
            <integer>3</integer>
            <key>ResetHDA</key>
            <true/>
        </dict>

should be:

<key>Audio</key>
        <dict>
            <key>Inject</key>
            <string>No</string>
            <key>ResetHDA</key>
            <true/>
        </dict>

this part:

<key>PciRoot(0)/Pci(0x03,0)</key>
            <dict>
                <key>hda-gfx</key>
                <string>onboard-1</string>
                <key>layout-id</key>
                <integer>3</integer>
                <key>no-controller-patch</key>
                <integer>1</integer>
            </dict>
            <key>PciRoot(0)/Pci(0x1b,0)</key>
            <dict>
                <key>#PinConfigurations</key>
                <data></data>
                <key>layout-id</key>
                <integer>3</integer>
            </dict>

is where you want to experiment with different layout id numbers (currently set to 3)

your audio may also use: PciRoot(0)/Pci(0x1b,0)

in which case to test, you may want to test different layout -id's to both those sections, you can use hackintool:

EDIT:
also, update your lilu kext

Hackintool is currently only reading the second one, I'll try different numbers and see what it does!

Holy mother of Jesus.

It was Lilu being outdated the whole time, I didn't even think about it! Did the changes you told me to the config.plist and updated Lilu to 1.4.4 through Hackintool and it worked like a charm!

Now I'm having EVERYTHING working thanks to you and @ThatCopy

One more question! How should I do to be able to use my FN keys to do brightness, volume, and all that? Currently only FN + F7 is working (turns off screen) it's not a big deal, but I really want to learn more.

Oh, and it turns out that now my command key is ALT instead of the Windows key like on my PC. Is there any way to change that? Thanks!

not sure about your FN keys, your hardware profile mentions a desktop?

you can change your keys in System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Modifier Keys

Oh yeah, sorry about that. I also have a Hackintosh PC that's working flawlessly thanks again to this community, and that's what I use the most. The notebook I have is an ASUS F554L / X555LAB motherboard. Also my trackpad gestures don't seem to be working like they should be. Currently using 'ApplePS2SmartTouchPad 4.6.8'. Is Voodoo by RehabMan any better?

Thanks about the keys thing!

Thank you one more time, fine gentleman.

I'm enjoying it so much!
