[Guide] El Capitan on the Skylake H170N-WIFI

I was digging a little bit in this thread and found this user that looks like was able to use the default wifi-bluetooth card. I will maybe try it.

 

that happens to me when i build my hackintosh,updating clover configurator fixed that memory ram issue.

 

Hi, of course!. Here it is my config.plist
and right! I'm using the BCRM Patch ram 2 and BRCM Firmware Repo kexts with KextBeast.

 

I have a MacBoook Pro that I have changed the default HD to 120G SSD installed with El Capitan. Everything is working fine. Now I'm building a desktop and I would like to use the same SSD that is running on my MacBook. My question is can I put the SSD that is running on my MacBook at my desktop? I have to format it first or can I use the pre-installed OS, after configuring the BIOS e etc?

 

Yo my man can I use a zotac extreme core edition. I can't find my original card anywhere for a reasonable price

 

If you are using a 94352 card, then you're missing a patch, add this via Clover Configurator:

AirPortBrcm4360
Find: 81F952AA00007529
Replace: 81F952AA00006690

Also, you're missing the MLB (Board Serial Number) in your SMBIOS. It is listed in the RT Variables section, but missing in SMBIOS. You should also be able to remove the memory settings as that will auto populate in the newer versions of Clover.

 

Hi There, and thanks to all: for this guide an releases!!
Its my first Hacki. I've tryed Sierra ... (Broadcom bcm94352z DW1560 -> wlan don't work, bluetooth ok (but system reboots), HD530 on Panasonic 4k with 1080p have to scale to see menus bar and top left menue bar with artefacts). So i decided to follow this instruction set here, and try it with el Capitan ... i strictly followed the complete instructions but with newest multibest823 in post1 -> success

i've taken the newest MultiBeast 8.2.3 and replaced the config.plist with h170n-wifi-intel-config.plist as described in post1 ...

Broadcom bcm94352z DW1560 with:
Brom2016-0705 and FakePCIID 2017-0104 -> works ("rebooting" not completly checked yet ..)

HD530, Geekbench4 Shows SKL Graphics, installed on top with multi beast HD530 -> Monitor up to 3840 x 2160 30hz @ my 4k Panasonic.

to get my 2x8 Gb Ram (first it shows only 8Gb) i updated clover directly from clover configurator, reboot ... it works (Slot0 8gb, Slot 2 8gb). FaceTime,IMessage... just fine.

Last thing which is buggy -> LAN Port under usb-c. Installed with Multibeast AppleGB v5.2.9.4. Connection will be lost, an if disconnect the cable -> directly reboot.

lan port with IntelMausi v.2.1.0d0. works

i'm happy, greetings from Germany

 

@hean - thank you for sharing. I'm also a first timer with a H170N but cannot get the DW1560 to work (after some 10 attempts, both 10.11 with this guide and 10.12) and was getting close to desperate. This gives me inspiration to try again.

 

Hello, could anybody tell if bluetooth on my mobo GA Z170N Gaming 5 would work at all with Sierra? At home we do not use wifi, so I dont really have the need to buy an extra card for both wifi and BT. I have been hours searching the forums but no concise info regarding the BT would work out of the box. I have two other builds at home using GA H97N-WIFI and BT works perfectly. Thanks a lot for your help!
