Audio ALC283

You have to choose between 2 kexts according what you uses the most : none of them is perfect ...
Always run the script "HDA permissions.command" after any modification on Audio.
  • AppleHDA_ALC283_out.kext is "one plug only" for AudioIn (you need to reboot if you loose AudioIn) but it has no issue with quality drop after a few seconds if not used for AudioOut (EAPD Support, codec remains alive)
  • AppleHDA_ALC283.kext is hot plug compatible for AudioIn (system detects presence of MIC) but it has issue with quality drop after a few seconds if not used for AudioOut (lack of EAPD Support, codec sleeps, a Sleep/wake cycle wakes it)

Troubleshooting​

  • For troubleshoot attach Rapport.zip generated by the Hack_Report_Clov command attached to this post

  • Huge screen resolution tested :
    ->3840 x 2160 @ 45 Hz (post#130, franzzup)
    ->3440 x 1440 @ 50 Hz (32bit) (post#96, gorila)
    ->1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz (32bit) (post#1, sebinouse)
  • No Volume Control on HDMI Output : see #post426
  • Installer not showing in Clover GUI (post#2, craig5571):
    -> re-create the installer from scratch (prefer createinstallmedia command)
  • Installer not loading completely (spinning wheel) (post#7, craig5571):
    -> use recent config.plist (2015 11 01 or newer), with "SystemParameters" populated
  • No ethernet after sleep (post#39 , innatech):
    -> use Mausi'kext (post#59) instead of AppleIntelE1000e
  • Different wifi card (post#81, PaulyGlocke):
    ->Remove SSDT-4.aml
  • Nuc D34010WYK (Intel Core i3) (post#139, post#140& #post194, intopieces & bomsom):
    -> Different files are needed : config.plist, SSDT.aml, SSDT-3.aml, 2 kexts for graphics, another HDMI audio patch and "IGP min mem"=32MB in BIOS

Update 10.12?
 
Is there any way to get CPU temps showing when running a program like monity? Maybe there's a text I missed for getting hw sensors working? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks! -vince
 
Hello,
I had a working El Capitan installation on my 4250u NUC thanks to Sebinouse but no sound so I installed the AppleHDA_ALC283_out.kext and executed the HDA permissions.command but now I get the spinning wheel during startup. It does go past what you see in -v.

I think it is this issue:
  • Installer not loading completely (spinning wheel) (post#7, craig5571):
    -> use recent config.plist (2015 11 01 or newer), with "SystemParameters" populated
Not sure with what I should populate it though.
I'm using the config.plist from Sebinouse_20160502.

It does boot with -x

Any ideas?
Thank you for your time,
Steve

OK this modification was for the installer and there is nothing for you to do ...

try to boot without caches (press spacebar during Clover drive selection and select without caches)
