Can you still share the EFI?

Here it is and in bios disable secure boot that’s all and generate new smbios id and use that instead of what is there in the efi file

Thanks buddy!

Installed Big Sur but have the same problem as you: touchpad not working.

Additionally, no sound.

For the WiFi, used Heliport app and it's working fine. Will be trying out some other kexts to see if I can fix the trackpad issue. Apparently this has something to do with the SSDT-XOSI file.

Thanks mate, I am using Applealc kext. Not sure about the device ID though. Can you please explain what that is?

Not yet buddy, been a bit busy. But I found an EFI on GitHub for a similar machine that claims trackpad to be working I haven't had a chance to test it yet, but you can give it a try:

GitHub - cloudzard/Predator-PH315-52-OC: Predator PH315-52 Helios 300 OpenCore EFI Trackpad + Keyboard working
