[solved] Only 4Mb of VRAM, HD 4000 Graphics

[JamesJohnson]

Your config.plist graphics settings are wrong (no expectation of working graphics with an invalid FakeID).

See guide for correct config.plist:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

Do you mean you're plists on Git? I've tried to use this one but I don't get any boot options in Clover.

I also tried to remove the Fake ID from my plist, but then High Sierra won't boot.

RehabMan's provided configs will work if you further edit them to fit your system. They are not a panacea. They will have your correct graphics configuration so its a good place to start.
Try taking the appropriate one and if you're having trouble booting from it, change the the settings usb settings add or remove trust.

Do you mean you're plists on Git? I've tried to use this one but I don't get any boot options in Clover.

It means you forgot HFSPlus.efi and/or apfs.efi.
Read the guide carefully.

I also tried to remove the Fake ID from my plist, but then High Sierra won't boot.

No verbose boot photo attached.
No problem reporting files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.

Ok, booting now and graphics has the right amount of memory. plist attached if anyone fonds it useful.

I have the same problems too, the VRAM is always 4M. And I found that the Revison ID is always 0x0009 no matter I changed the ig-platform-id to what.

I disableded the Nvidia 740M gpu and set ig-platform-id to '0x01660003', but it doesn't work, and I found it was fount in preboot.log, but still set Intel GFX revision = 0x9.

24:536  0:000  Intel HD Graphics 4000 [8086:0166] :: PciRoot(0x0)\Pci(0x2,0x0)

24:536  0:000    Found FakeID Intel GFX = 0x01668086
24:536  0:000  Intel GFX revision  = 0x9

I checked my config.plist with given in

#14

, almost same expect the ig-platform-id of
JamesJohnson is 0x01660009, is that right? I tried 0x01660009 but still not work.

I really confused , thanks for any help
