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

[RehabMan]

I tested with -uia_ignore_rmcf added to my boot flags. Anything (USB2 or USB3 ) connected to the USB-C port uses port HS05 in both directions. No SSxx port is active ever when this connector is used.

Then it is (so far) UsbConnector=9.
But it sounds like your adapter is faulty... or some other mistake (all SSxx ports not enabled).

BTW: The DP audio works flawlessly on this notebook after running your HDMI Audio script!

No idea what you mean by "HDMI Audio script".

I'm thinking that maybe my USB-C to USB adapter I'm using is intended for only USB 2.0 (It came with my phone...). I have ordered a USB-C to USB 3.0 adapter to further test the port.

LasVegas

You will know that for sure if it only ever connects to HSxx, never SSxx.

I followed all the instructions in you thread but I did not get nor sound or battery status and besides I lost the USBs in the docking station. So I tried with the working config.plist I have in Sierra (another disk). This one fixed the USBs but no sound or Battery.
"Customizing your USB"
Now I'm sending you the Ioreg after testing every USB port with a USB 3.0 device first and then a USB 2.0.
This laptop has 2 USB 2.0 ports on the right, 2 USB 2.0 ports on the left.
The docking station has 2 USB 3.0 ports on the left and 2 USB 2.0 ports on the back.

I enabled the three "change 15 port limit to 26 in XHCI kext" and every combination of them without result.

An by the way, with the proper config.plist Sound and and BAT are fully functional.

Make sure your BIOS is up-to-date.
Then follow the instructions in post #1. Exactly.

Please document each active HPxx, SSxx port and their location.
Note: The port limit patch has no application to your hardware.

I see,

Your copy of the github project is not up-to-date.

I updated from the repository.
Configured again.
Still mouse lagging after boot and sleep. I also searched a bit for solutions in other laptop guides, I am not sure what to do.

HDMI not expected to work on the Zbook. The ZBook HDMI is dedicated to the Nvidia, and no one has investigated how to get Nvidia to work.

Likely needed.
Try it and report back.
I'm only adding it as necessary to the models that need it (based on feedback here).

Thank you very much, a happy new year for you, Rehabman.
I would like to contribute and donate, will it help you also doing this here at Tonymacs site link 'Contribute', or is there an other way to thank you 'more directly'?
