Sounds more like a logoff. Check for crash logs in Console.app.



Test restart without USB WiFi. Your laptop likely has no whitelist.

Also, your problem may have to do with 3rd party software you installed (such as com.kairos.driver.DuetDisplay). Test with fresh install.
I tried without USB WiFi attached, still the same story, and I tried the Restart in Login screen (no third party software is loaded yet), still the same same story, I guess there is still something wrong in ACPI configurations?

And I checked HP 9480m maintenance and service guide:
http://h20565.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/...089926&docId=emr_na-c04763980&docLocale=en_US
WLAN module replacement is listed in Chapter 5 "Customer Self-Repair parts", page 43, only 3 modules are listed:

Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 802.11 AC 2x2 WiFi + BT 4.0 Combo Adapter 710663-001 HP Intel Dual Band Wireless-N 7260AN 802.11 a/b/g/n (2x2) combination WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0 WLAN module 717379-001 Intel Dual Band Wireless-N 7260AN 802.11 a/b/g/n (2x2) combination WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0 WLAN module for use in Indonesia 747833-001

And there is caution listed:
To prevent an unresponsive system, replace the wireless module only with a wireless module authorized for use in the computer by the governmental agency that regulates wireless devices in your country or region. If you replace the module and then receive a warning message, remove the module to restore device functionality, and then contact technical support.

Does that mean there is whitelist mechanism implemented or not?

It is unlikely there is a whitelist implemented in your BIOS. You will find out for sure when you install a new WiFi card.
 
Thanks RehabMan for the patient explanation, I found SSDT-8x0-G2-Broadwell.aml with layout-id 4, and with this SSDT in clover patched folder, and applied the config_ALC280.plist into config.plist, now Audio is working!

Now my ACPI/patched folder is with following content:
View attachment 205020
SSDT.aml is generated by ./ssdtPRGen.sh.

And my Clover/kexts/other folder content:
View attachment 205021

I am using config_8x0s_G1_Haswell.plist, the battery indicator is working correctly.

But I still have following issues:
1. CPU Freq is incorrect (in windows is 2.1Ghz, but in OSX it is 2.69Ghz shown in system information, and the fan is faster than windows, also laptop is hotter).
[Edit]I installed FakeSMC related all kexts, and in HW Monitor I can see something like below, so I guess the CPU freq is tuned correctly according to loads?

2. Although the keyboard light has 3 stops (bright, low bright, off) and it is adjustable using Fn+F11, but the screen backlight is always brightest, and I am not able to use Fn+F6/F7 to adjust it.
[Edit]I installed IntelBacklight.kext using Kext Utility, and I can now get the brightness pref slider in System Preference>Display, but for the Fn keys as shortcut to adjust brightness and volume, I think it is another topic according to the guide, it might required more complicated steps even including recompile something.
3. The trackpad is not working correctly, it seems not responding, but sometimes it is responding incorrectly and cause the external USB mouse left key not work, and I have to force restart compute to recover the USB mouse left key.
[Edit]After doing the steps according to the guides in VoodooPS2Controller.kext github page, I still cannot get the trackpad work, very strange, I have no idea how to proceed...
[Edit]4. And the Reset/Show Down through OSX menu doesn't work correctly, it seems the power management is not behaving correctly, shutdown cannot really make computer power off, any suggestions to troubleshoot and fix it?

Any suggestions to solve the above 4 issues?
Hi I realize that this is a few months old, but can you walk me through how you patched the ssdt and config.plist? I tried going over the guides, but couldn't figure it out. Thank You.

Make sure you get ACPI patched by the guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...book-using-clover-uefi-hotpatch-10-11.189416/, you can use:
./install_acpi.sh install_8x0g1_haswell

Then additionally install the attached aml in CLOVER (EFI>CLOVER>ACPI>patched) and ensure in Clover configuration you have below patches applied:
Screen Shot 2017-01-24 at 6.27.46 PM.png

You should get audio work for HP Folio 9480m under El Capitan.
Unfortunately I did a fresh installation of macOS Sierra, the same approach doesn't work anymore, the audio is not working.
