[Guide] Lenovo Legion Y520/Y720 using Clover UEFI

[ravnized]

I resolved my problem and is all good, I am currently in mojave 10.14.4, but with acpiBatteryManager the percentage of the battery is 0% even under charge, also i don't have the battery icon.
Any way to resolve?

I am going to guess you installed kexts incorrectly to /L/E.
You can’t just copy and paste kexts there like you can in Clover, certain permissions need to be set in order for kextcache to work.

To answer your question, no.
The dGPU runs in Nvidia Optimus mode which is unlikely to ever be supported under macOS.
Currently all we can do is disable it so it doesn’t draw power and run on the Intel integrated gpu.

Keyboard backlight works fine.

The LED will come on if I boot into windows first then reboot into MacOS. But if I cold boot into MacOS the keyboard backlight is off. Anyway to change the color of the LED while in MacOS or can only be done in Windows?

I have triple boot working of MacOS 10.14.5, Windows 10 1903, and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

I have even tried fn+space to see if light will turn on.

Here is my problem reporting files please see attached files.

Your complete IOReg report is missing, are you sure you let the script run uninterrupted?
Do all Y720s come with custom software controlled keyboard backlight?
My Y520 only has red backlight with 3 brightness options (off, medium, full).

EDIT: I doubt there is control for your keyboard backlight under macOS.
