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

[RehabMan]

Yes, sure.
I tried to change bios setting (use control with/without Fn) with the same result: Volume UP and DOWN is OK. Mute doesnt work.
Do you have suggestions.
Thanks.

You should test your mute button in Windows.
Also, check that you have the latest BIOS.

No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.

Use the gen_debug.sh tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.

If you can do the legwork in the context of this guide/github, maybe support can be added.

Could I submit my recent job for this thread? Such as DSDT fix for battery.

My audio device CX8400, there is no AppleALC support.. I can find a guide to making it, I am working on it,this is really a complicated job...

This guide uses hotpatch.
Any submissions must also use hotpatch.

Yes, patching AppleHDA is complex and time consuming...

Hi Everyone!

I plan to replace my Lenovo T420 hackintosh with an EliteBook 8470p.

The reason is, since high sierra I get screen freezes quite ofteb (even with Mojave beta) and it is not possible to fix. It might be a HD3000 issue so I’m hoping with the HD4000 I can have a reliable hackintosh.

Can anyone from the 8470p users here confirm it is a stable machine under High Sierra (or even Mojave beta)? I’m thinking about the 8470p due to the 1600x900 screen and low price, but if there are other models supported by this guide that were found to work better at a similar price, I would be interested in them.

I really appreciate your help.
Thank you.

You need VoodooPS2controllerkext in your clover other folder. Or for now you could try a USB keyboard and mouse.

Unsupported laptops

If you think your laptop might be similar to the ones listed as supported, but needs only small tweaks, please provide the following information:

- native DSDT/SSDT files extracted via Clover F4 (ACPI/origin)
- audio codec dump from Linux
- full hardware details (CPU, chipset, graphics device, screen resolution, etc)
- output from 'lspci -nn' in Linux Terminal

Hello @RehabMan my laptop model does not have an install script (think so), it's a ProBook 6470b that was working wit the old guide (Install 10.11 on HP EliteBook/ProBook/others with Clover UEFI). I provide the requested information, hoping it's complete and just need small tweaks.

Thanks for reading (and replying)!

Hi,

I have followed the guide and everything is working fine except on little thing:

I get a 60 seconds timeout on AppleIntelCapriController (or something like this) and this causes a slow boot and the GPU gets detected but no QE acceleration at all. Sometimes if I get lucky on some boots I do get QE but it's random and I still can't figure why.

I have attached the debug files needed in order to take a better look.

Thanks a lot !

EDIT: For the QE acceleration to work I needed to delete the SSDT generated by PikerAlpha's script. I tried with -w 3 and also -c 3 but same results although the CPU is working great and turbo without a problem but I don't get GPU acceleration for some reason. I hope this helps.

SSDT.aml - is generated by PikerAlpha's script. But still..Idk why isn't working. I tought that Clover isn't loading SSDT-4x40s but that isn't the case here. All 4 SSDT's are loaded
