HI, this is not properly a guide but I'm sharing with you the conf to make Big Sur work on the Cube Mix Plus.
Specifications:
CPU m37y-30
4go ddr3l
m2 Sata foresee 128 go
intel micros secure card
alc283
intel 3165 dual channel a/c combo wifi/bt
usb-c
micro-usb
SVIO front and rear camera
FTSC1000 touchscreen
WCOM4002 pen
Dock keyboard usb, ps/2 touchpad
usb3 on dock
battery dual Intel SR 1 Real Battery
Not working:
Internal card reader(intel one, no hope)
Dock trackpad
Cameras(i2c, no way)
Audio shortcut on the keyboard
Bugs:
The battery meter has some problem when connected/disconnected with the original charger. I use a type-C charger and have no problem.
The device doesn't go to sleep closing the lid.
Configuration and installation:
Boot bios and:
-enable CSM and set as "Boot Option Filter" "UEFI and Legacy"
-set in chipset - System Agent (SA) Configuration - Graphics Configuration - DVMT Pre-Allocated as 64M.
-no need to disable vt-d , clover disables it with "dart=0"
-I advise also to enable Thunderbolt (TM) Support to enable the type-c port.
-I advise also (if you have the "chinese" version of the tablet) to do BIOS -> Boot -> Quick boot -> Disable and get rid of the Chinese logo. Thanks to @asusceleron
Now let's install osx.
Build your installation usb stick and install clover on it. Replace the config.plist with the one attached, then copy the file SSDT-MixPlus.aml in CLOVER/ACPI/patched and put the kexts in the zip in CLOVER/kexts/Other (remove all the other folder in ketxs).
Don't install the kext on /L/E/: since Catalina macos has some problem with kext in system and the clover config attached forces the kext injection.
When booting system you need to use the preboot entry. You can modify the config.plist (after the installation process is over) adding to the hide field the name of the macos partition(this way it will be shown only preboot)
NOTE:
The Airportitlwm version in this zip is only for Big Sur, you can still replace it with the one for Catalina or with the universal itlwm (I didn't test this configuration to boot Catalina, in fact I'll not remove the files in the Catalina thread. Please, let me know if this configuration works with Catalina).
AppleALC in the zip folder is a modified version with an additional platform id that allows us to use the mic. The platform id is currently pending approval in github so in the future it may be possible to upgrade to the official kext. For now, if you replace the kext with the official one you'd lose the audio.
A big thanks to @zhangguangcai that fixed a lot of things (including audio) up to High Sierra.
Don't replace voodooi2c with the official version. The kext on the zip is the official version with the plugin VoodooInput removed as it is already in the VoodooPS2 kext. If you want/need to upgrade the kext remember to remove this plugin.
I don't think I'll transition to OC soon, however clover has still some problems with Big Sur: no recovery, you need to boot only in preboot, etc
Audio/Touchscreen/Wacom can not work at the first 3 reboots.
If you want a working iMessage please set a Board Serial Number, a Serial Number and a SmUUID (google them if you need)
From Mojave the brightness bug should be over.
From Catalina the issue with the keyboard in which you need to press two times the caps lock to make the keyboard working properly should be over.
If you come from a stock Cube(or AlldoCube) Mix Plus you probably have a 100 mb efi partition. I suggest you to upgrade this size to 260 using windows and MiniPartitionTool(if you want help just ask)
