The patch is a perl script to be executed in Terminal. Best to patch a copy of the kext then install via Kext Wizard.

eg...

cd ~/Desktop
mkdir backup
cp -R /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext ./backup
mkdir patched
cp -R /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext ./patched
perl -pi -e 's|\x01\x02\x04\x00\x10\x07\x00\x00\x10\x07\x00\x00\x05\x03\x00\x00\x02\x00\x00\x00\x30\x00\x00\x00\x02\x05\x00\x00\x00\x04\x00\x00\x07\x00\x00\x00\x03\x04\x00\x00\x00\x04\x00\x00\x09\x00\x00\x00\x04\x06\x00\x00\x00\x04\x00\x00\x09\x00\x00\x00|\x01\x02\x03\x00\x10\x07\x00\x00\x10\x07\x00\x00\x06\x02\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x09\x00\x00\x00\x05\x03\x00\x00\x02\x00\x00\x00\x30\x00\x00\x00\x04\x06\x00\x00\x00\x08\x00\x00\x09\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00|g' ./patched/AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB

Verify you applied the patch correctly. Compare md5 sum before/after patch.

Also verify you're using snb-platform-id... 00 01 00 00

Correct command to check the md5 of the backup is:

md5 ~/Desktop/backup/AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB

Kexts are directories where the binary is in Contents/MacOS.

Note: You must hold Option down in SysPrefs->Displays and choose "Detect Displays"

I have OS X 10.9.4, I originally have vanilla SNB but there was no full QE/CI neither graphics acceleration therefore I searcheed up the web and downloaded a working one..

Where can I download the original vanilla version back?

I know rehabman said no about this, but I don't necessarily agree. There is a hacky way to use the AMD card, at least with my computer.

Do you get AMD drivers loading? Does the AMD card handle external displays if you plug them in? If you go to System Report -> Graphics, do you see the AMD card?

If so, you might be able to have the AMD card render and output to your intel-powered screen. However, I don't know of a way to switch on and off the AMD card in a usable way, right now, but I'm looking into it and may come up with something.

It depends on whether the HDMI is switched or dedicated. Most laptops use switching...
