[RehabMan]

I've added your patch using Clover, but the result in terms of the lag on boot being fixed but backlight control not working is the same. Maybe you'd like to take a look at this @egore

Hey @RehabMan, I was just checked your github and saw the GPRW solution for instant wake and was wondering exactly what is the instant wake issue? I am on Envy j-070 and very rarely when resuming from sleep, my laptop will just reboot and when booting Mac OSX, my apps would still be there like my laptop went into hibernate mode instead. Does this fix that bug as I am using neverhibernate in Clover config.plist with hibernatemode of 0 per your Envy guide? Again this bug hardly happens and has just started happening on 10.12.x.

Reply in guide thread with "Problem Reporting" files.
GPRW fix for instant wake already implemented in Envy github files...
Hibernation should be disabled, as per guide.

SysPrefs -> Trackpad is empty

You can work around by copying the prefpane for the trackpad from 10.11.

Details here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-trackpad-preference-pane-is-blank.199946/

Use VoodooPS2Controller.kext v1.8.25 or later.

In my current build (dell latitude e5470) the last version of VoodooPS2controller didn't make the pref. pane works, still i got the 2 finger scrolling and the "tap to click" enabled: also, the pointing stick works great like all the button (5 button). There's something i could/should try to make it appear?
As attachment a typical error report.

Your ioreg is corrupt (please read "Problem Reporting" carefully).
Your kexts are not installed correctly. All kexts must be installed to the system volume.
Read post #2 of the guide for details:

Ty for your time RehabMan.
I moved the kext in /S/L/E whit Kext util (exception made for fakesmc, i left a copy behind in efi/clover/kext/other AND a copy in /S/L/E), also reinstalled VoodooPS2controller, did a couple of reboot, but still nothing. Attached another report files collection (hopefully this time i manage to extract the ioreg file correctly ).

Your trackpad is recognized as a mouse since it is not Synaptics (my driver is primarily for Synaptics).
Yours is likely ALPS.
You should search for PS2 drivers specifically for ALPS.
