[Guide] HP ProBook/EliteBook/Zbook using Clover UEFI hotpatch (10.11)

[RehabMan]

This time only -v was used.

Attached is /efi/CLOVER.zip omitting themes.

The image is PAST verbose output meaning it made it all the way past that portion of the installer loading, then hangs here.View attachment 200487

EFI/Clover/kexts/Other is wrong. It is missing FakeSMC.kext. FakeSMC.kext is needed on all hacks..

Please read the guide carefully.

Your profile does not indicate any laptop hardware supported by this guide...

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"

Looks like normal wake up of EAPD. Must be some other problem specific to this codec...

Hm. It looks like 1/n times the audio is working after sleep. Is there a way to check what is the difference - for comparison? Maybe there is a log entry when audio correctly load?

I also figured out the sleep issue when i close the lid. I need to deactivate wifi and it works.
I already unchecked the setting -> energy -> wake by network.
But when using the button disable wifi+bt from HP and close the lid, it is not working.
So it seems that the wifi is not correct deactivated when the lid is closed. Have you ever seen such a behaviour?

You could dump nodes with hda-verb (see node_dump.sh in CodecCommander project).

Would need to now the specifics of "sleep issue"... and "Problem Reporting" files.

It is simply not possible for me to remember what the specifics that each person has.

The 840 G3 is supported (config_8x0_G3_Skylake.plist, install_8x0g3_skylake).

Boot verbose, show photo. Attach EFI/Clover folder as ZIP (omit 'themes' folder).

Thanks, Didn't realize it was supported (isn't shown on front page of this thread).

It was FakeSMC - I overlooked that.

What are your thoughts on a Zbook Studio G3 compatibility?
i7-6820HQ
CM236 Chipset
NVidia Quadro M1000M
intel i219-LM ethernet
Thunderbolt 3

I can gather the data from one of these if you're interested. I know the NVIDIA card will probably be a deal-breaker though.

Comes under category "100-series"...

Depends on details. We haven't seen a Zbook G3 here yet.

So.. .according to ioreg, you have two USB3 ports (SSP7/SSP8). Do you know the location of these two ports? There appears to be a USB2 port (HP22) as well (location?).

No WWAN installed, so I might have to guess about that port...

Added prelim support in SSDT-USB-8x70.dsl. Some comments regarding locations might be off (they came from the SSDT-USB-6x70.dsl). Please test.

Sure, the two usb 3.0 ports are on the left side of the laptop and the usb 2.0 port is on the right port (always on for charging..). I tested the file and it worked .

Back to my problem with the slow booting time. I deleted the IntelBacklight.kext and the booting time is still very long. So I looked into the system.log and found this:

So there is a 18 seconds gap between:

and
Jun 22 22:05:44 Georgs-MacBook-Pro launchd[1]: BUG in libdispatch: 15F34 - 1718 - 0x0

Have anybody seen this error before?
Thanks!

The problem is shown here:

The "timed out waiting for IOKit to quiesce" means a start/probe in a kext is hung up waiting, and the system only gives a approx 60 seconds for that to resolve. (hence the 62384, 62269, 62207ms...). After the timeout, it cancels...

You can see it is hanging up in the IGPU related matching/starting...

It is because your laptop has no IMEI on the PCI bus (8086:1e3a, I searched in ioreg) ... you can confirm in Linux with 'lspci -nn'.

OS X requires IMEI. It is a motherboard/firmware flash/defective hardware sort of thing. You can try reflashing BIOS or looking online for a way to reflash IMEI firmware (or install Windows including IMEI driver to see if it fixes), but often it means motherboard replacement.

I have a question, RehabMan, if I installed windows 10 through parallels Desktop on a Hackintosh with no wifi working for OSX (incompatible wifi), will it work on windows or not? Thank you very much in advance!

I've never tried that specific scenario (WiFi is working on my hacks).

Plus, I don't really care for "what if" questions, as it calls for predicting the future, which is impossible.

Okaay, my question was to be exact, if anything not working on osx (for another example the internal sd card reader) will it work on windows with parallels desktop? Just asking from your experience
