[Guide] Dell XPS 13 9350 macOS 10.12.1

May I ask what version of Clover you advise ? I understand that some versions don't work (I have tested with 3835 without success)...
Also, is there anything to change in your config.plist given tat I have different graphics and CPU ref (I think it is not necessary) ?
Thank you !

Reboot, Shutdown & Power Management seem to be working flawlessly! Sleep takes 20 seconds but that seems normal.
USB-C Video Output works! I'm really surprised, I just plugged in and it worked flawlessly, both with HDMI and DisplayPort adapters!

Somehow the USB-C port doesn't work as a normal port with an OTG adapter, may be a port limit issue...
Remaining issues are hotkeys, graphical glitches, thunderbolt and the SD Card reader...

EDIT: Tested the Port Limit Patch and the port still doesn't work sadly. Using the VoodooPS2Controller KEXT as it's less buggy for me (although multitouch and such don't work at all sadly...)

Hi, the trackpad preference is blank and when I try to drag a file it open it. What should I do ?

I'm using Clover_v2.3k_r3811, the latest last time I checked, haven't had issues with different versions!

If you have an Intel CPU and the HD520 it should be fine, do regenerate the power management SSDT though!

See the note in this thread!

Hey, I'm not sure if this will work for you guys, but on my XPS 13 9343 I figured out how to get the brightness keys working via a DSDT patch. I've posted it here.

(edit just to add this won't work on 10.12, but maybe 10.12.1)
