At the outset I would like to thank Mikorist for his brilliant effort with OC. I only wish I had seen this post earlier!
I have a stock G50-70 with Atheros AR9565. Had challenges in getting the trackpad and wifi to work earlier.
With Mikorist's EFI, I am able to get Catalina 10.15.6 working with all features except trackpad, WiFi (AR9565) and Audio jack auto sensing.
#1 I had to use ApplePS2SmartTouchPad.kext to get the ELAN trackpad working as VoodooPS2Controller.kext (ELAN specific) didnt work properly.
Query: Am I missing something?
#2 Was able to get WiFi (AR9565) working by using corecapture.kext, CoreCaptureResponder.kext and updating IO80211Family.kext in S/L/E.
Query: Are 'BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext', BrcmFirmwareData.kext, and BrcmPatchRAM3.kext required for Atheros WiFi?
#3 Using the VoodooHDA.kext, the jack auto sensing doesnt work. Have to manually select output as 'Headphone' after plugging the headphone. It used to work using AppleALC in Mojave using Clover with the usual configuration.
Query: Anyone else facing this issue? Is there anything else to be configured?
Thank you
Edit1: #1 Resolved after changing ApplePS2SmartTouchPad.kext back to latest ELAN VoodooPS2Controller (v2.1.5)
#3 Resolved after replacing VoodooHDA.kext with AppleALC.kext.
