How do i install MacOS Sierra on Asus G752VS?

[chibibowa]

It works ! Now I’ll check what finetuning is required. Thanks a lot !

 

[chibibowa]

Alright, so here's the thing.

I didn't check every corner of the OS but here are the main problems.

High priority

Battery shows 0%
Trackpad (I would like to know if I can get it working, or not)
No sound

Medium priority

FN keys for keyboard backlighting (Sound FN keys work)

Low priority

FN keys for screen brightness (is not critical at all since I use 100% brightness all the time anyway)

I didn't test sleep but I 95% of the time don't need it anyway (It's disabled on power source in the macos settings, only the screen will go black after 20 minutes, as I configured it).

Nvidia drivers work and my screen is outputting 120hz refresh rate, as expected.

brightness keys probably won't work as you are not using intel graphics

trackpad is most likely I2C

This thread is intended for users of VoodooI2C to get support for using the kext on their system. What is VoodooI2C? VoodooI2C is a project consisting of macOS kernel extensions that add support for I2C bus devices. The project is split into two main components: the core extension and various...

[Guide] How to patch DSDT for working battery status

Background Because the battery hardware in PCs is not compatible with Apple SMbus hardware, we use ACPI to access battery state when running OS X on laptops. Generally I recommend you use ACPIBatteryManager.kext, available here: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-ACPI-Battery-Driver Later...

Hi,
that's my first hack.
I have Asus rog g752vs. I installed High Sierra. I want to do a Vanilla version so all my kext are in EFI partition.

I patched my dsdt following this guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...ake-i7-6700hq-gtx-1070-sierra-10-12-4.221056/

I installed all the kext using files form this discussion page #1

Working things:
- USB 3.0 (the 2 on the left side are faster than the other 2 in the right side)
- Nvidia web driver
- FN key
- Battery and Sensor cpu gpu
- Audio command

not working:
- hdmi audio
- thunderbolt 3
- mouse lag (i tried rolling back nvidia drivers but it doesn't work, maybe there is a specific version that works)
- VoodooHDA is ok but headphone has noise and i noticed that jack becomes very hot.
- SD reader
- brightness command
- touchpad with buttons
- wifi (I'm waiting to mount new wifi card)

Someone can help me? Thanks

Hi there,


You can grab my config at reply #89, with much help from my colleagues, most of it is working now without lag ..
I'm using this hackintosh since 2018 everyday.
I've never tested my thunderbolt 3 port on mac and I couldn't make the brightness command to work, I have an app called "brightness slider" which overlays the screen with a translucid black panel...

Hi, thanks a lot. So I have to use your CLOVER folder instead of mine to make it work?
I noticed that inside your kext folder there aren't any kext in 10.13 and other. Did you put them in L/E and S/L/E?

Can you give a list of the kexts you installed?

Thanks

Thanks!
Ok, I'm trying to apply this kext and @aluferraz 's CLOVER. I will post my result.
@aluferraz Did you delete some original apple kexts?
What version of nvidia web driver do you use?
What version of VoodooHDA loader?
So your keyboard backlight, touchpad with button works?

I couldn't get the trackpad to work. If anyone has a working EFI folder, I am interested in it, I will make the necessary DSDT/SSDT amends for my system of course.

Other than that, I recall having 120 hz refresh rate and the system was stable. But I gave up since my Main rig had Catalina installed and is more than perfect. I'm however interested in a working EFI folder tho, as a hack backup of some sort.

I mostly abandoned because I couldn't get the trackpad working and that was a real big dealbreaker to me. If I can get it working, I might considering replacing the wifi card.

Hi,
using @aluferraz's EFI:
Working things:
- USB 3.0
- Nvidia web driver (no mouse lag now )
- Audio and headphone but on wrong pin that make noise (VoodooHDA kext)
- FN key
- Battery and Sensor CPU GPU (i saw battery don't last very long comparing to windows)

Not working:
- Touchpad (using appleps2 kext).
- Hdmi/mini display port audio
- USB C/thunderbolt 3 (I have to try to plug something and turn on laptop)
- Fan Speed Sensor
- brightness keyboard
