Thanks.
Is that ok now?
I never got the following things working:
For now I have given up, but as soon as the 10.14 web drivers are released I will update and try my best to get it fully working.
- Brightness
- Audio
- SD Card
- Battery (it always puts the computer in a bad state with my current patch etc)
- Power management
- Sleep
- Probably a few other things too which I can’t recall right now
Sorry for the disappointment!
Cool. Will you be able to help me get Mac OS working on my laptop?
you seem to have forgotten to install FakeSMC.kext to /Library/ExtensionsI've finally become bored enough to actually try to fix some of the remaining problems I've been experiencing. So far, I've done the following:
I have yet to do the following:
- Successfully enable audio.
- Successfully enable the battery to appear in the ioreg and allow my laptop to boot with a correct battery percentage.
- Apply OS Check Fix (Win 10) - not sure if I needed to do this though ¯\(ツ)/¯.
I've followed the DSDT patching guide and created a DSDT patch for the battery, which has actually enabled the battery to be seen by the OS. Because of this, my first goal is to get the battery working flawlessly. Here are some currently observed behaviours:
- Get the battery to update it's remaining capacity and percentage and give correct discharging status etc.
- Fix and power management issues.
- Get sleep properly functioning when closing the lid.
- See if there's anything I can do about the backlight at all, considering the iGPU is hardware disabled.
To assist anyone in helping me with this I have provided the patch I created and the problem reporting files generated by install_tools.sh. I have taken the liberty of including two ioregs in that zip - one for when the laptop is unplugged, and one for when it is plugged in.
- Percentage and battery status is correct on boot.
- macOS correctly actively detects whether the adapter is (un)plugged.
- After booting once with macOS I have to reset the EC to be able to turn the laptop on without an adapter (this needs to be fixed).
- macOS appears to think that the battery is fully charged when it is plugged in, although of course, it is not.
Thank you for any help that is offered!

you keep it in both places, which is fineYou're correct, it isn't in /L/E, but rather it's in Clover. I would prefer it to be in Clover rather than /L/E as then it allows me to boot the recovery partition etc without modifying the EFI folder first.
