Kexts used:
FakeSMC, VoodooPS2Controller, USBInjectAll, Lilu, WhateverGreen, AppleBacklightFixup, AppleALC, ACPIBatteryManager
Please, DO NOT forget HFSPlus.efi. Without it, you won't see any HFS+ partitions, including the HFS+ partition that the OS X installer is on.
Config.plist used :
config_HD515_520_530_540.plist or you can use my config.plist with all boot args attached in this post.
- Installing macOS
Use the same Rehabman's guide listed in the previous section to wipe the SSD clean and install macOS Mojave. You should have no problems with it. Don't forget to install Clover on your SSD and copy all kexts, HFSPlus.efi, and config.plist in it.

- Getting Brightness Control Working

Once, the Brightness Controls are working in System Preferences, I remapped the keys to Increase/Decrease display brightness through System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcut -> Display to F1 and F2. (fn + F1, fn + F2)

[Guide] Patching LAPTOP DSDT/SSDTs
Overview In order to make many OS X features work well on a laptop, you will always need a properly patched DSDT (and maybe some of the SSDTs). The purpose of this guide is to provide a foundation for proper patching of your OEM DSDT/SSDTs. Advanced users may wish to implement hotpatching via...

Use ChuwiAerobookBatteryPatchV2.txt patch attached in this post.
All thanks to lavjamanxd for his initial patch https://github.com/lavjamanxd/chuwi_aerobook_hackintosh
- Screen glitches (/01/10/2020 update)
2) In the section Devices add the device: "IntelGFX" (Device)- "AAPL,GfxYTile" (key) - "0100000000" (value) - "data" (value type) (this will fix a graphic glitch)
Bugs, I've come across:
- BT works fine with my Magic Mouse 2 but lags with BT Headphones when I'm switching it from Facetime to Spotify and back. So, I disabled the internal BT using boot args uia_exclude=HS07, and use BT dongle which has no problem with my particular headphones.
You need to download this kext (itlwm) and a wi-fi Client for itlwm (HeliPort).
Put itlwn.kext into your clover/kexts/other folder and HeliPort into the application folder.
Wifi USB options: (30.01.2020 update)
Follow this guide and pick any of those USB wifi adapters even under Support Drivers` view list. https://github.com/chris1111/Wireless-USB-Adapter-Clover
I bought this particular wifi dongle ($4 click-me) based on the RTL8811AU chip. And it works well with 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz networks.
The best option I think is TP-LINK Archer T2U Nano
What doesn't work so far:
- Touchpad (SYNA 3602 work in progress)
- eMMC
iMessage fix (if you use itlwm and HeliPort just login into your Apple account)
Generate Serial Number and UUID to get iMessage working. Follow An Idiot's Guide To iMessage to get it all working.
Is it possible to upgrade Mojave to Catalina? - Yes, but you must change H_EC to EC in Clover / ACPI / DSDT
