Hello,

I was working on this beast but I'm at dead end.

What is working:
- Intel Wifi
- Intel bluetooth
- Backlight
- Audio (without MUTE)
- Discrete graphics Card
- NVMe
- Power management
- Battery status
- Trackpad (basic gesture only) (Synaptics [Windows])
- USB 2.0, 3.0, USB C (I can't try thunderbolt because I have no thunderbolt devices)

What is not working:
- Trackpad all gestures (Synaptics [Windows])
- Audio MUTE
- SD Card Reader
- Airdrop (Broadcom card needed)

Could you help me?

Thank you in advance.

For Trackpad try Voodooi2c + Voodooi2cHID or VoodooSMBUS (both longshots, but can't hurt to try)
For SDCard sinetek-rtsx
For Audio try a different layout-id that's compatible or modify your current layout by compiling your own AppleALC

Thanks mate!

I tried Voodooi2c + Voodo2SMBUS because my trackpad is SMBUS (Windows).
I will try sinetek-rtsx. Is my SDCard realtek?
I tried 13 and 3 layout-ids. CX20724 The same with both of them.
How I compile my own AppleALC ??

Thanks

You may need to fake the id so the kext loads. may need to edit your DSDT or create an SSDT for that.

I believe all ZBook's SDCard slots are, but may be wrong.

That's a very long google search, there are sketchy instructions scattered in different forums if you look for them.
But as a start download the project from github, and look for your codec in the resources folder and in the platform that matches your id, see if MuteInputAmp is set to false, and if that's the case just change it to true and compile and hope for the best.

This is the layout but this may not be the speaker node, there are a few nodes under PathMapID=13 and a bunch of them have Publish Mute set to false, just find your speaker node and change that one.


Cheers
