Hello Friends,
After several attempts, I finally successfully installed OSX 10.12.6 on my Asus laptop. And in the process, this forum helped me a lot. So I thought why not contribute back?:headbang:

Hardware Info:
  • Model Number: Asus R558UQ (Basically A Rebrand Of X556UA)
  • CPU: I5-7200U
  • GPU: Intel HD 620, Nvidia 940MX (2Gb)
  • RAM: 12GB (Upgraded from 4GB)
View attachment 340920
What Is Working?
  • GPU - Have full acceleration (Intel HD Only)
  • AUDIO: Working With AppleALC.kext And Lilu.kext, (Use 13 As layout ID)
  • Headphone Jack (Install CodacCommander.kext Using Kext Utility)
  • Bluetooth
  • Touchpad
  • Battery Info
  • Wifi (with External WIFI Dongle)
  • DVD Writer
Issues:
  • Touchpad: Working But Not Useable. No Gestures Work (Detected As Mouse)
  • Wifi: Working But only Using an External adapter.
  • Battery: Only Works with DSDT Patch.
  • brightness: Native brightness Not Work, (Using Brightness Slider, Downloaded from Store)
  • Audio: Working Fine In both Inbuilt Speakers And Earphones But Quality IS not as good as Windows.
  • Bluetooth: There Is No Option To Turn Off Bluetooth
[Note: Only Use Sierra 10.12.6 Installer To Get It Working]

[ REMOVED! Now OK? ]

And now Download CodacCommander kext and install it via Kext Utility. (To Fix Earphone audio Issue)
And voila! You got working Sierra.

Battery Fix:
Patch DSDT To Fix Battery Info Issue.

Final Thoughts:
Well, This Hackintosh build is totally useable as long as you use an external Mouse.
And if you have any fix for the touchpad issue, please reply(N.B I already tried patching DSDT But it caused The Touchpad Not Work). It would be very helpful for both me and the other users. Thank You!

Hello I Have been trying to get hackintosh running in my laptop with same Configuration
Intel Core i5 7200U @ 2.50GHz
Kaby Lake-U/Y 14nm Technology
X556UQK (U3E1)
8.00GB Dual-Channel Unknown @ 1064MHz
and this corona thing is making it worse for me to get access of a mac

First of all after reading this post I followed the guide, been doing permutation combinations accordingly, downloaded the latest kexts ,tried with Sierra ,High Sierra ,Mojave,the installation doesn't go past the apple logo and gets stuck at loading,ofcourse i tried the gpu and nvidia part
my main concern is that its a legacy bios,plus i dont have an access to mac to i cannot use clover connfigurator to make changes

I'm attaching my EFI folder for High Seirra usb Boot
