I started from scratch and now everything is working! Last thing is the trim enable command. I saw it somewhere but can't remember... Can someone post the command? Thank you.

Code:
sudo trimforce enable

Or in Clover :

IOAHCIBlockStorage
Find 004150504C452053534400
Replace 0000000000000000000000
Trim Patch
 
Does it matter which one I do? Thanks.
 
I use the
Code:
sudo trimforce enable
Then I don't have to modify the config.plist file.
 
I have tested Rehabman's NVMe patch based upon the Pike code. It works and eliminates the shutdown/start-up error problem we've seen with the NMVeGeneric.kext. If you use RehabMan's patch, backup your NMVeGeneric.kext.

https://github.com/RehabMan/patch-nvme

Here's my procedure for using the patch script:

:ch:Download the patch .zip file and keep it in your ~/Download folder. Unzip it and note the folder name because mine was named "patch-nvme-master"

:ch:Use this Terminal command to determine your installation drive's EFI partition:
Code:
diskutil list

:ch:Use the EFI Mounter v3 to mount your installation's drive EFI partition

:ch:Go to the /EFI/EFI/Clover/kexts/10.11/ folder and drag the NMVeGeneric.kext to a backup location. This will just copy the file, so, after you copied it, trash the NMVeGeneric.kext in the .../10.11/ folder.

:ch:Run the following Terminal commands (again, make sure of the patch folder's name in /Downloads):
Code:
cd ~/Downloads/patch-nvme-master
./patch_nvme.sh 10_11_6

:ch:Drag the HackrNVMeFamily-10_11_6.kext from the ~/Downloads/patch-nvme-master/ folder to the /EFI/EFI/Clover/kexts/10.11/ folder.

:ch:Reboot

I still can't get my Samsung 960 Evo 500gb m.2 drive to show up in diskutil when booting from my USB. :/

I put the patched kext HackrNVMeFamily-10_12_3.kext into /EFI/EFI/Clover/kexts/10.12 and still no luck. Any ideas?
 
So just about everything works for me except wake up from sleep. It turns on my computer but then I have two black screens.

I re-installed Codec Commander kext to the latest version. Added the darkwake=0 flag and ran "
sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 0"

I also checked on the SSDT's for my nvme drive and motherboard:

3:601 0:000 === [ ACPIPatchedAML ] ====================================
3:601 0:000 Start: Processing Patched AML(s): Unsorted
3:601 0:000 Inserting SSDT-NVMe-Pcc.aml from EFI\CLOVER\ACPI\patched ... Success
3:606 0:005 Inserting SSDT.aml from EFI\CLOVER\ACPI\patched ... Success
3:611 0:005 End: Processing Patched AML(s)

But I still get the black screen after trying to wake up. Any ideas?

Hey, Stork! Do you have an updated version of this guide for M.2 on 10.12.3??
Hitting a wall here, total noob BTW. I can boot from the drive, but not sure if it'll boot without the USB installed. Please help.

See my OP (Post #1) as I try to keep that current.
 
What is the best Darkwake mode for this mobo?

I use darkwake=0 I think I have issues.

I left the computer on for 5 days came back display was asleep. Then couldn't boot. Ran in verbose mode and OsxAptioFix2Drv gave an error so I ran in safe mode and "upgraded" with latest clover and the issue went away (clover update OsxAptioFix2Drv).

Im trying to figure out why this happened did OsxAptioFix2Drv become corrupt? Am I using wrong darkwake? Maybe I should disable it since I'm not using sleep mode anyway.
