I am trying use kexts/clover config, which are tested for my laptop (described in my sig), however it fails to work. but this issue is something interesting
I downloaded @whitegarry's kexts as mentioned here:http://pan.baidu.com/s/1mgKEu4w
So I loaded kexts/config as instructed, but display doesn't appear at all. It gets stuck after 'Missing bluetooth controller transport'. I followed every instructions as given. He suggests to change Custom UUID, CustomEDID key. Thats all.
1. I am using hardware uuid as Custom UUID:
2. I generated EDID and added in config:
However screen gets stuck. So I used my earlier config and booted. It works. Then I started changing each field of my config to match that of Whitegarry's. And I guess I got almost identical. And it still works! I am comparing each field in Clover Configurator and they are identical. So I don't know why it doesn't work :-/
I am attaching three files.
1. The whitegarry given, but edited according to my system, i.e. added EDID and GUID. -- Doesn't work
2. My config which I started from scratch, matches with #1. So it is same as 1. -- WORKS!
3. Same as #2, without EDID/Graphics section.
I don't understand why #1 wouldn't work
With #2, laptop turns on and works. however graphics performance is not quite right, i don't find it snappy enough and it turns off after few mins of usage. So I tried removing EDID/Graphics and now it seems to be fine. This is third config. Does wrong EDID can result in laptop shutdown?
