I inserted this code, besides being missing the PM, does not give HEVC for Hardware, H264 works at 100%.

Hey guys,
After two days of trying and failing, I finally managed to set up Clover (config.plist and kexts) to boot my macOS Mojave USB. However, after booting I can use the installation media for 2-3 minutes and then the screen becomes black and 2-3 seconds later the machine restarts. No matter if I start the installation process or just do something in disk utility, 2-3 minutes after the boot the laptop restarts. I followed this guide and think I set up the framer for my HD 530 correctly. However, I still believe the problem is with my iGPU, because if I open Apple's webpage in Safari from the USB the animations are bad. I am sharing my CLOVER folder as an attachment. Please if anyone can help me find where the problem is or knows a different way to configure HD 530 with i7, write a reply. Thanks in advance.

I've updated my Qotom mini-pc (i5-5250U) to Mojave and everything works except audio via HDMI output (using the internal intel HD6000 graphic). Have Lilu+Whatevegreen present but I'm really not sure how to generate proper config for IGPU in config.plist. I've only setup the very basic AAPL,ig-platform-id (using Haswell laptop from p.1). I'm attaching ioreg report. Anything else I need to get?

Your graphics in i5-5675C is actuall " Intel® Iris™ Pro Graphics 6200":
https://ark.intel.com/products/88095/Intel-Core-i5-5675C-Processor-4M-Cache-up-to-3_60-GHz
You should fix your profile for accuracy.

From your ioreg, looks like you're trying to use VoodooHDA. Perhaps consider patched AppleHDA via AppleALC.kext+WhateverGreen.kext.

Note: Your hardware is Broadwell, not Haswell.

Well when trying to set the profile there wasn't any option for 5250u so I went for the closest one that was on the list.
Code: 
vendor_id    : GenuineIntel
cpu family    : 6
model        : 61
model name    : Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-5250U CPU @ 1.60GHz
Yes I've tried Voodoo after failing with HDMI (VoodooHDA works for my analogue sound). Will install AppleALC.kext and report back.

Edit: After removing VoodooHDA and installing AppleALC.kext I get no audio device. Again ioreg is attached.

Hi,

I must be an idiot, but I can't make the dump of my FB (HD3000).

I downloaded the debug versions of Lilu and Whatevergreen (on github) and set the -igfxdump boot arg, but I don't get the dump file.

What am I doing wrong?

I already have a find/replace entry on my config.plist to patch on the fly AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB to use only 3 ports (LVDS, VGA and HDMI) and works fine. I need this utility to try to set the DVMT prealloc to 32MB because I experience some glitches and ocasionally freezes of the screen (except the mouse pointer). I already have 8GB of RAM (tried 16GB and still glitches) and I'm out of ideas to get rid of those annoying lines glitches.

Thanks in advance for your advices.

Thanks for you help!
After I added the optional configuration of framebuffer-* to config. plist, I was able to boot to Mojave success.
Thanks again.
