Your SMBIOS data in config.plist must be wrong...

No idea... No Broadwell (I think your hardware is Broadwell?) hardware here. The serial# does not look correct though.

You should probably use a Haswell SMBIOS for now, as the Clover support for Broadwell SMBIOS is incomplete (incorrect/incomplete FakeSMC keys).

--

Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)

Mobo: manufacturer/model + bootloader(Clover/Chameleon/Chimera)
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
Mobo: HP ProBook 4540s (Clover)
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.

Note: When specifying your bootloader, if using Clover legacy, please be sure to specify "Clover legacy"). Specifying "Clover" will be assumed as "Clover UEFI"
 
I tested haswell SMBIOS but same problem. Because of this I could not update. It is working fine. Could you help me with webcam?
 
Thank you RehabMan Webcam is working fine now after installing FakePCIID_XHCIMux and FakePCIID but its bit noisy . I will go with this.

I think update is not working because of incorrect model detection. Looks like I have to wait till clover update for Broadwell.

Its really a good laptop for hackintosh very smooth.

What do you mean by "update is not working"?
 
I launch the update installer, after few minute its asking to reboot but after rebooting nothing happened. I tested both off line and online update. I checked the log and looks like model is not identified properly.

"update installer" for what?

Be precise.
