For me Lilu, Whatevergreen and AppleALC load correctly only if installed if L/E. When they are in Clover Kext/Others they don't seem to load (for example Audio is never working in this case and i can't see these kexts in SysInfos>Extensions. I tried to add -lilubetaall as boot arguments for Mojave support, and Clover>Kext Inject=YES without change. So i installed all my kexts in L/E (Except the BRCMPatchRam kexts in S/L/E as expected)
Really you should be placing most of your kext's in EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other. The only ones I have in L/E are BrcmFirmwareData.kext and BrcmPatchRAM2.kext. Placing kexts in S/L/E or L/E is considered obsolete now. That's not what I say; that's what the authors of Lilu, WhateverGreen and AppleALC say. They also say that now that Clover supports injecting via config.plist/Devices/Properties you're supposed to stop using ACPI and use device properties similarly to Apple.
I don't see the flaky sort of behavior you're seeing either. I've never had a boot up where I don't get the 3 minutes of black screen. That's with SetIntelMaxBacklight disabled and no AppleBacklightInjector.kext. I recommend you download my latest config and try it. It was made for me personally by vit9696. I don't think you're going to find a better config than that!
Also when injecting kexts via Clover you say the kexts aren't getting loaded? You won't see them in System Report...->Extensions. Try running "kextstat | grep -y -E 'Lilu|WhateverGreen|AppleALC'". Also you may want to try rebooting a few times.
At the end of the day though you can take whatever advice you like. For me personally since working with vit9696 on the WhateverGreen framebuffer patching system and witnessing first hand his reverse engineering skills. I can say without a doubt the man knows what he's talking about. So that's why I have so much respect for his advice but you can take it or leave it.
Still no way to have AptioMemoryFix properly working. As before i cannot shutdown correctly.
I will have a talk to vit9696 about it as he's involved in its development.
