[Update] Sierra on the Skylake H170N-WIFI

[AlphaFox]

Just gone to Sierra 10.12.1,

1st Problem
I have no wifi working but bluetooth is OK.

My question may seem stupid but : how do I apply the patch for the wifi ?

My Wifi Card (is working with El Capitan)
14E4, 43B1, 17AA, 0623, Broadcom Corporation, BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter

2nd Problem :
My Nvidia Card is also no recognized even if drivers were updated.

I have the same wifi card, see this to make it work: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-airport-pcie-half-mini-v2.104850/
Yes, its very long and complicated and annoying. I still don't have handoff working...

As far as Nvidia, theres a new plist variable you need, see here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...for-macos-sierra-10-12-1-367-15-10-15.205568/

Hello. Please can you explain how to make sleep work? In my configuration (i5 6600 + GTX 750Ti) it doesn't work!

(sorry for my bad English, I'm from Italy)

Try sleep without any USB devices except a keyboard, maybe one of them is causing issues with sleep.

So... update on the sleep issues: I can wake up it from sleep with the power button but not with the keyboard...
EDIT: So I found also that waking up from sleep breaks audio!

I use a apple Cinema Display, the display port version. it has a USB audio device built in so I don't have to monkey around with the one on the motherboard, it just works.

I have done a clean install using Unibeast and Mulibeats.
Now waiting for instructions to get Audio, Bluetooth, WI-FI and wake from sleep working.

Is anyone have issues with Sleep/Wake?

did you guys get sleep working on Sierra?

 

[rishi44]

No more wake after sleep...
Everything else is ok

did you get wake from sleep to function? my monitor isn't able to wake from sleep but the computer does

 

[rishi44]

Also, monitor won't wake after system sleep and wake

any update on this?

 

[AlphaFox]

sleep works for me, I don't use the integrated video card though.

Hi Everyone,

I got Sierra installed and running(on this board with a 960 graphics card) with the exception of:

No bluetooth
Wake from sleep (freeze) unit is on but no display

From what I gather there are no fixes for the above two issues?

TIA

no sleep fix yet? For bluetooth I just have the two kexts installed, BrcmPatchRam2 and BrcmFirmwareRepo, what wireless card you have? I'm assuming you have the Brcm94532Z

sleep works for me, I don't use the integrated video card though.

Im using the rx480, I wonder if there is a problem with sleep related to that

Thank you

The Nvidia GT950 works now with Sierra.
I lost my sound, I removed nvda_drv=1 option and now sound works
As nvda_drv=1 option seems to be useless now, is it possible to disable it before booting OS X ?

Wifi seems much harder. As you have same card as mine, is your Wifi working now ?


Sleep works on my hackintosh.
