ASRock Deskmini 110 issues

I only revised the ig-platform-id 0x19120000, and I get the 4k@60hz not any black out! I found your config/device ig-platform-id is wrong. You should make it 00001219, not 00001912. I think you can boot from this! I am working on the 2560x1440 hidpi now. I will keep you updates.

After correcting ig-platform-id from the old one to 00001219, it works! I can get a worked 4k resolution with the .plist file alone now. Thanks for your advice! It helps me a lot.

Besides, I'm using Lilu+WhateverGreen, too. And the VideoProc test results are as follows:

You can catch some logs like "cannot config graphic hardware, fallback to ....balabala" on the -verbose boot mode. To some extent, the issue of HEVC unavailable may have something to do with the "spoof" platform id which we use now. I have used the 0x59160000 id, patched the IntelBufferFrame and got 2048MB graphic memory successfully on my previous 1080p monitor, but forgot to test whether the HEVC works at that time.

I would like to ask if your sleep can work or not? I tried many way but just can't make it work.

Mine didn't, either. In fact, after the first failed trying, I have set it to "never sleep" in power plan. Deskmini110 acts like a mini PC, rather than a laptop for which power-saving is more important. Combined with "hard disk sleep" and proper monitor sleep config, it could reach this goal in an easier way

Also when I watch videos on Chrome, the screen will frozen and I have to restart. Don’t know what happened? How can i check it?

I have to say that our problems are very similar.
This frozen problem also annoyed me at the first time I tried hacktonish on Deskmini110/COM. (See my first thread), the difference is that it could happen at any time and the sign of which is a short while of . I guess this issue was due to an internal graphic problem. However, it has been proved to have nothing to do with the error message "com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.apple.displaypolicyd[1284]): Service exited with abnormal code: 1" I encountered in system.log, since I could find the same error in log with my machine works well now. The final solution for me to solve it is that I reinstall the whole system and config the graphic again.
What worth noticing is that the problem occurred when I used a 1080p monitor. Maybe you could check errors in system.log first and try to config the graphic again to see whether it works. If not, I think redoing the system install from scratch (with backups first) is a faster way to avoid endless googling and patching.

After following recent posts on here I have been able to get 4k @ 60Hz working perfectly on the Deskmini 110 with an i7-7700!

I ended up copying the Device>Properties from the EFI.rar file posted by lightningmac

The only issue I now have related to graphics is that the scaling options are limited (I had more options, say 5, which meant I had a better resolution for a single monitor)

Previously with the flicker (on platform-id 1659) there were 5 scaling options, which suited me much better.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hey folks,
did the upgrade from Sierra to Mojave recently. Thought I followed the instructions, but after the procedure was completed, I did the first clean restart and I can't get past the login screen since I have no keyboard available. (keyboard is working for clover and was working during the upgrade process though).
Maybe an issue with usbinject or a missing/wrong kext?
Did a quick search, but didn't find substantial help.
Thanks for any progressing suggestions.

It seems that the USB ports don't work properly. I haven't met the same issue and maybe you could check whether the USBInjectAll.kext works in Hackintool.

I had the same issue at one point, and as I recall, it was a function of USBInjectAll not installed, or perhaps improperly applied, giving no access to KB or mouse at login. I believe it must also be present [on the USB drive] in order for one to install, which I assume you already know.

I suggest a retry, making sure to use most up-to-date version of USBInjectAll, and then not to forget applying cache/permissions/etc. rebuild afterwards, (using a suitable tool/utility) before the restart. It should then be working properly, sans some other issue.

Related note: Don't recall exactly anymore how I got the the two USB 3 to function correctly as USB 3, as [post-install] my system was restricted to USB2 speeds when I first got 14.4 working, but it may have been a MultiBeast 'USB fix'...hope this helps

Has anybody successfully updated to catalina? I did the update yesterday, and the intel HD 630 graphics seemed to have broken, I can boot into the system, but the video card vRAM always was 32 MB. Any help on this?
