Asus Zenbook Pro UX501VW journey, Audio issues

Not open for further replies.
Ok success! I managed to get Audio mic and headphones working by using a fully patched AppleHDA using Mirone's HDA Patcher, injected with clover and I added two custom SSDTs to ACPI/Patched. The first one from Codec Commander Repo (SSDT-ALC_668) and a custom SSDT Rehabman generated from this post: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/asus-ux501vw-alc668-issues.203809/
It is very important to add the SSDTs to the sorted order of clover or they will not be loaded. I guess the problem was related to cold boot vs windows boot rather than pinconfig/nodes.
I guess this can be marked as solved, what do you think Rehabman?
How did you get a custom SSDT Rehabman generated from this post: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/asus-ux501vw-alc668-issues.203809/? can you share your method? thanks!

Whoops wrong thread sorry, the correct thread is this one: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/alc-668-only-works-well-after-restarting-from-windows.195934/
You need to clone vbo repo and then use codec commander script to generate the ssdt. Remember that the SSDT generated must have the layout id matching your patched AppleHDA!

Do you need to modify the platforms or layout3 xml/plist for the patch? Or, did you use the standard file generated with MironeAudio Patcher? I'm using the patched HDA generated and have audio out from the built-in speakers but no mic input audio (but shows up in input list).

Attached is the SSDT from the thread referenced from your post. I modified it for layout 3. Is this all that was needed?

Thanks

Verify the SSDT is loading by looking at your Clover bootlog (perhaps you're using SortedOrder and forgot to add the SSDT to the list).
yes,i checked boot log,and i found the ssdt has loaded.
 
So I wanted to install Sierra on my ASUS UX501VW too but I haven't even been able to boot the installer.
What did you do to get it to boot and how did you set up your USB stick? And which UEFI settings did you use?

If I try to start the installer with dart=0 and nv_disable=1 it won't boot and it says "couldn't allocate runtime area".
If I start the installer with 0x12345678 as FakeID for the IGPU it will boot further but then it just freezes at a random point shortly after.

Do I need any special Kexts for this laptop other than FakeSMC to install macOS?

I used RehabMans guide to install Clover but I haven't used his config.plists since he had none for the Intel HD 530, do I need to do anything special to get it working? I also tried the normal installation guide for Sierra with Unibeast, but with the same result.
Even though I'm already running Sierra on my desktop, I'm pretty new to installing OSX on a laptop, if you haven't noticed already.

Damn, I'm blind, sorry.
