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

[RehabMan]

Sorry I attached the wrong CLOVER file. Here is my CLOVER file.

Your ioreg in your previous post does not correspond to the config.plist in this CLOVER.zip.
Please provide all files as per "Problem Reporting".
If you need to remove the WiFi hardware, then do so... (I'll keep this ioreg that seems like it was booted via USB so I can see where your WiFi is...)
Even though the WiFi hardware would not be present, it allows sanity checking of other data provided in that problem report (eg. patchmatic output).

Note: You should be using MacBookPro11,1 or MacBookAir6,2.
This guide does not use HWP
(you're trying to use an HWP enabled SMBIOS and you don't have the necessary xcpm_idle patch for it...)

Here is my IOReg.

Need all "Problem Reporting" files (eg. missing patchmatic -extract output).

Also note that booting may be very slow the first time... because Clover can not patch a kext that is not in cache, and AirPortBrcm4360 will not be in cache, it will try to start without the fcvo patch.... Be patient, and give it time to boot, then rebuild cache and reboot (kext will go into cache on the rebuild and then will be patched on that subsequent boot).

I use MacBookPro13,1 because ssdtPRGen.sh build error by using MacBookPro11,1 or MacBookAir6,2

It is not an error. Ignore.

Thanks for the patchmatic output... so far I come up with these diffs (actually not sure about G2 vs. G3 BATT).
You can test:

I don't think the missing "SSDT-RP05_PEGP_RDSS.asl" matters as your profile (and evidence in ACPI/origin) indicates you don't have a discrete graphics card, but...

Let me know how it goes waiting for the boot to complete....

Hi RehabMan, thanks for your wonderful guide! I am installing 10.11.6 on my HP Probook 440 g3, Skylake, but find headphone jack not working, the built-in speaker works. No headphone option in System Preference, only built-in speaker. Could you help? Thanks!

 

[KreiDer]

No idea. You could try 10.11.6 and report back.

I've installed EL capitan on 650 G1 and at the moment DP works as expected.
Thanks for your help.

I don't have discrete graph chip in my Probook 640 G2.
I use MacBookPro11,1 to call ssdtPRGen.sh per your suggestion.
it goes waiting for the boot to complete over 1 hour, however it can't complete and stuck at the place as usual.
I need to disable the wlan in the bios setting to boot into OSX.
I did an experiment to remove the "AirPortBrcm4360 - fcvo, 10.12.x (credit the-darkvoid)" setting in the config.plist and it can boot to OSX with enabling wlan setting in the bios. The attached file is the screen shot of the DPCImanager.

Try alternate layout-id 5 (look at your model specific SSDT).
