macOS 10.13.4 Update

[rafatribe]

Updated from store. Lost audio but recovered that by re-running multibeast. However also lost USB3 port. Trying various USB fixes now.

Edit: Checked FakeSMC kext (current, in Other folder)
Changed Fix USB_1000 to True. Ran Multibeast with Fix USB options to increase USB ports, but so far no fix. USB2 ports work but not USB3.
Edit 2: Still no USB3. Tried to install Rehabman USB-Inject-All 0.6.4. Was already there, and didn't have any new effect. Open to suggestion. Changed Fix USB_1000 back to False.
Edit3: When USB3 drive is attached during boot, it is detected and is available for booting (as External Drive). But after booting,(internal drive 10.3.4) the same USB3 port is not recognized. Seems this should be an easy fix (Max USB ports to 26 installed) but it has been working all along till now. If I boot from the external drive into OS 10.3.3, the drive works and remains available. But after booting using internal drive containing the updated 10.3.4, the USB3 port is no longer recognized. Suggestions welcome!

All my USB3 ports are gone too...

Hi guys, I need to clean install because I have not space to update... I downloaded the installer and cloned it in 2 USB drives and in the hard drive but clover can't detect it... I tried to download the installer two times... If I try with El capitan installer it works so it is something related with the now build...

My update from Mac App Store failed.

I was using RadeonDeInit method for RX 560, with Intel UHD 630 ig-platform-id 0x59120000 (no fakeid, tried 0003, didn’t work). BIOS set to PCIe graphics prioritized. iMac18,2 Config.

With only FakeSMC.kext in EFI partition, after the installation, the machine rebooted into blackscreen. No video output was detected by my monitor. Tried to switch BIOS to iGPU as 1st, and connected HDMI cable to the motherboard, but it still booted into blackscreen, this time with a cursor.

Tried both with RadeonDeInit on and off, and with and without WhateverGreen, the results are the same.

I'm also experiencing the very same problem as you described.
Gigabyte RX 560 4GB & UHD 630 (i5-8600K), sys def: iMac 17,1

- PCIE as initial device in BIOS, setting RadeonDeInit to No, only a black screen after loading macOS.
- IGFX as initial display setting in BIOS I got the black screen with the cursor.

I can only make it "work" by removing the RX 560 from the motherboard, and connect the display cable to the motherboard. Now at least I can see the output... Sadly the UHD 630 is very laggy after the update, have the same problems as described by others. UHD 630 identified as a duplicate under System Information/Graphics, low res, flickering, lagging.

I recommend NOT to upgrade your PC if you have a Coffee Lake Intel 8th gen build.

Booting to black screen after Update
Sys def: iMac 17,1
GPU: RX580
IGFX as initial display
No graphic kexts applied.
Tried GFX0 to IGPU, fake ID for 6700k and RadeonDeInit with no luck.

Works when I boot with my USB-Installer EFI, which has iMac14,2 as System Definition. But then it shows 2x Intel HD530 and 1x RX580

Maybe iMac17,1 is the problem?
Has anyone an idea?

Possible workarounds: Use AppleHDA from 10.13.x or use VoodooHDA. Attached Voodoo kext that only matches on NVIDIA codecs so works less aggressively alongside existing native audio patches. Optional: Disable unused outputs in PinConfigs with mask FFFFFFFF, search for a guide.

Thanks for this! I used the kext you provided and audio returns!
I appreciate the help.

Try Inject ATI. Tested on the latest beta https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...up-kext-to-display.248556/page-2#post-1716739 and on final version

Thanks for that file! Worked for me, Display-Port is back (one HDMI Audio output is the display port audio)

Same issue here. USB works fine with 14,2 SMBIOS.

SSD doesn’t with 15,1 definition. Everything else is the same config besides the SMBIOS.

I have just updated mine Hackintosh (iMac18,3) to 10.13.4 and lost some of the USB 3.0 ports.
Now, macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 does not recognise any USB 3.0 thumb drives.
