[Guide] Lenovo Z50-70/Z40-70 using Clover UEFI (10.11)

[RehabMan]

I am trying to install macOS Sierra on my Z50-70 laptop. I have two storage drives in my laptop. One is 1 TB hard drive and the other one is 256 GB SSD. I am trying to boot into the installer of macOS Sierra. It just shows apple logo for a second and restarts and boot into Windows.

Post EFI/Clover folder, also make sure you've prepared your installed USB according to RehabMan's guide linked in post #1.

I know where I made a mistake. I forgot to change the name of "config_install.plist" to "config.plist".

Yes. Read post #1, "Updates to the patch repositories". Make sure you run the commands prior to updating your system.

I successfully installed Mac OSSierraa on my Lenovo z50 but the trackpad gestures don't work as stated in the system preferences. For example, in the settings it says that swiping three fingers up would access mission control but in reality it is a four finger tap. is there any way to fix that? Everything else is working as expected btw

Not all gestures are implemented.
Depends on the hardware you have.
You failed to provide "Problem Reporting" files or any information regarding your trackpad hardware...

Is it possible to inject the power properties for the USB ports using the SSDT or DSDT? I recently noticed that my phone would not charge when plugged into any of the 3 the USB ports on my Z50-70.
