Guide To Install Yosemite on HP Laptops with Clover UEFI

Try injecting EDID.

Hi RehabMan,

I did it (it last a while) in Win7 and extracted the EDID informations of my screen.
But now I doubt, if I had done it right, because when entering the EDID Info, the display again starts to turn green.

this is my EDID string:
AP///////wAGr+wmAAAAAAAWAQSVIhN4AsiVnldUkiYPUFQAAAABAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEBAQEB4h1W1lAAJjAQED4AWMEQAAAYAAAADwAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAgAAAA/gBBVU8KICAgICAgICAgAAAA/gBCMTU2WFROMDIuNiAKAE0=

Where I need to put it in?
<key>Graphics</key>
<dict>
<key>DualLink</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>Inject</key>
<dict>
<key>ATI</key>
<false/>
<key>Intel</key>
<false/>
<key>NVidia</key>
<false/>
</dict>
</dict>

Attached my custom .plist with my EDID inside. I gave it a try but again green screen.

Thanks in advance,
Cromatic

Your config.plist is corrupt.

Read the Clover wiki: http://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Configuration/Graphics#InjectEDID
 
I read through it and I changed the structure, where I put in my EDID infos.
But still, I get green screen.

Can you check, or tell me, if my new .plist is okay or corrupt again?
And if corrupt, what does it make corrupt?

Thanks,
Cromatic

You never implemented post #1602.

The config.plist becomes corrupt if you make an incorrect edit.

Oh okay, didn't realized, that I also have to follow post #1602 and delete this hda-gfx section AND put in my EDID infos.

I will try and post results back!

Thanks, RehabMan!

EDIT: Did both changes, but no improvements. Still green screen.

Try plugging an HDMI monitor.

Also, boot verbose. Maybe you're not getting as far as I'm thinking (eg. USB problem)...

Also, be patient. Booting the OS X installer on hack from USB is not fast.

I boot up w/o verbose. On laptop again green screen, HDMI TV is white and picture looks good. I can see the "rainbow" ball quite normal.

Whats next? Nothing so far happened on HDMI TV screen. Be patient and wait?

Boot verbose.

Why when I write "Also, boot verbose.", you write "I boot up w/o verbose."

This place is crazy sometimes...

Sorry, but you edited your answer, and in the meanwhile I restarted it w/o verbose.

Now, with verbose same story: LCD green, HDMI TV white (looks normal).

Any errors in verbose output? (Hint: that is why you boot verbose ... to discover information about the booting process).

Also, you should reset BIOS to default.

Desperation... you can disable graphics completely: config.plist/Devices/FakeID/IntelGFX=0x01228086
