[Success] ASRock Z390 Phantom Gaming-ITX + TB3 + iGPU + Mojave + SFF Build

I was able to repair the audio output device issue by updating the following in the v3 config.plist using suggestions from the Idiot's Guide to Lilu thread (AppleALC Section):

1. In Clover config, changing CLOVER/Devices/Audio/Inject to "No"
2. Changing the device-id for the Realtek ALC1220 from 48A30000 to 70A10000
3. Changing the layout-id for the Realtek ALC1220 from 10000000 to 01000000
4. Enabling the layout-id for the Realtek ALC1220 (was disabled in v3)

This now provides all the audio output devices that were available originally.

Hopefully this helps point things in the right direction, and may be able to be incorporated into an updated config.plist.

Thanks! This is good information. I'll work on in this weekend.
 
My PCI section shows:

"This computer doesn’t contain any PCI cards or devices. If you installed or connected a PCI card or device, make sure it is properly installed."

Just followed these settings and they worked perfectly, my audio from the rear panel works. Thank you!
 
Good to hear most things are working well. As to the problems:

1. Sound. I've not investigated as I use TB3 to Apollo AUD. I'll look into later. (Although as mentioned in an earlier post, here, ASRock mobos seem to have an issue with their audio ports even on Windows; maybe not a Hackintosh matter.)

I did notice one potential mistake in the config.plist file. In the Devices/Properties section, change "layout-id" from 10000000 to 01000000. The first value is true if the Audio inject in the upper right corner was 16. But since it is 1, the layout-id needs be 1 (hex) to match. The correct version is in the image below.

2. BT early in boot. This is a BIOS issue, and may remain outside of our Hackintosh control. One thing to try, is to move the BT kexts in the /L/E/ folder (and then re-built the cache). It may allow earlier BT detection.

3. Your 'en0' Ethernet section looks good. So the next thing to try is adjusting some settings.

a) Make certain that you have valid SMBIOS SN and board SN in Clover. If you don't,
iMessages won't work.

b) If SNs okay then do the following with Terminal:
i) type: sudo rm -rf /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
ii) type: sudo rm -rf /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
iii) re-boot and see if iMessages is working.

If this doesn't work, let me know and we can try some other things.

Getting closer! I finally have a bit of time during the holiday to work on my Hackintosh once again. I managed to get the audio working from the concise instructions that moronic provided on post #108. Audio works!

For getting BT to work on boot (#2), I looked into the /L/E/ folder and didn’t see any BT extensions to move. Could you let me know which extensions are the ones referenced and where I could move them to to see if this works? Also bluetooth is extremely finicky. Sometimes it works perfectly and then a minute later I’ll experience a bit of lag. I’m wondering if it’s the stock antenna, would it be worthwhile to explore purchasing a different one that would make bluetooth a bit more consistent?

Lastly, I’m still having problems getting Messages to authenticate. I’ve tried several times trying to generate a SN in the SMBIOS section that the Apple site will recognize as valid. I keep getting a message, “We’re sorry, but this serial number isn’t valid. Please check your information and try again.” I’ve tried at least 20 times with no luck, I’ve also generated a SmUUID along with the SN — am I following the proper procedure, or am I doing something drastically wrong? I haven’t tried your terminal commands yet, should I try this route first?

Sorry to inundate with so many newbie questions! Have a happy 4th holiday everyone!

No.

“We’re sorry, but this serial number isn’t valid. Please check your information and try again.”
That's what you want it to say, it means that nobody has registered that serial number with Apple.
If only someone would write a guide for this stuff . . .
 
No.

That somebody was you! I followed the guide instructions and of course Messages is now working. I appreciate you taking the time to point me in the right direction. I have to remember that there's a search bar at the top of the page!

Thanks P1LGRIM! (I got tied up this July 4th weekend and didn't get to updating the thread until today.)

I updated the config.plist as per moronim's suggestions (here).

If one wishes (with care), instead of downloading and re-doing the config.plist, to copy and paste into your existing config.plist file, using "Text Mode", here are the changes within the Device heading to copy and paste:

I cant decide. Should I go with this board or 30 € cheaper Gigabyte Aorus Pro Wifi? With this I could get native WiFi and Bluetooth, but i cant see any problem if there is a working USB dongle as I understood.
 
For getting BT to work on boot (#2), I looked into the /L/E/ folder and didn’t see any BT extensions to move. Could you let me know which extensions are the ones referenced and where I could move them to to see if this works? Also bluetooth is extremely finicky. Sometimes it works perfectly and then a minute later I’ll experience a bit of lag. I’m wondering if it’s the stock antenna, would it be worthwhile to explore purchasing a different one that would make bluetooth a bit more consistent?
Sorry to inundate with so many newbie questions! Have a happy 4th holiday everyone!

I've found the included antenna to be good, but it needs to be relatively close to the location of your BT devices.

For trouble shooting BT issues, see this post (which is from CaseySJ's great thread on the Z390 Designare build).

Native WiFi and Bluetooth with the supported Broadcom chipsets are needed for Handoff, Continuity & (i think) Apple Watch Auto-Unlock. Not sure if those are important to you.
