VoodooI2C Help and Support

[kecinzer]

It's strange.
I just tested boot without variable preset and IOREG show same result for GPI0.
So I thing, I need additional patch, not just SSDT-GPI0 one.

 

[kecinzer]

why are you adding SDM1 in for?

try the attached

That was just for test, because this variable involving return of method _CRS for CPD0 that returns Return (ConcatenateResTemplate (SBFB, SBFG)).

or you could just follow the instructions

or you could just follow the instructions

What instruction? I followed this instruction exactly - https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/Laptops/trackpad-methods/manual.html after it not working, I start experimenting with additional variables. But pure version of this guide not working also.

I just did test with IOReg and XOSI and rename method. Result is, that with both methods, GPI0 seems to work same:





CPD0 (my touchpad device) looks different.

Finaly I was albe to attach touchpad to driver, it seems to works correctly in IOExplorer, but touchpad not working at all.

Amazing!

Great polling method success with VoodooI2C v2.4.3 on my ELAN1000 trackpad (Skylake Asus Zenbook)

I was on Mojave using VoodooI2C and VoodooI2CElan v2.1.6 with the GPIO pinning method (GPIO pin number 0x47)

I decided to finally clean upgrade to Catalina 10.15.4 and use the latest VoodooI2C v2.4.3

I'm on Clover r5119 and preparing to upgrade to OpenCore, so not using the static DSDT, only SSDT hotpatches. All I'm using that could be trackpad related is SSDT-GPIO, SSDT-XOSI, SSDT-EC

Edit: I am also using the Clover KextToPatch fixes to prevent AppleIntelLpssI2C and AppleIntelLpssI2CController from loading

To my great surprise, VoodooI2C worked out of the box in polling method with all the features and gestures enabled. Amazing!

What works:
- right-click
- left-click
- 2-finger scrolling
- 3-finger expose
- tap to click
- 3-finger tap for data look up

A few observations:
- The trackpad only started working as soon as I added SSDT-BATT to enable battery status. So, a working battery status is required.

- Left click was not working properly until I disabled "Force Click and haptic feedback" in the trackpad settings

It doesn't appear that I will gain much from moving to the GPIO pinning method.

also fixes to prevent AppleIntelLpssI2C and AppleIntelLpssI2CController are no longer required with latest version of VoodooI2C

 

[Jingu]

Just found out. Indeed. AppleIntelLpssI2C and AppleIntelLpssI2CController no longer load. No patch required.

One more observation. This VoodooI2C automatic hotpatching for the polling method only happens if strictly hotpatching is used, no static DSDT.

I tried to use a static DSDT to implement a patch, I immediately lost my trackpad function. I removed the static DSDT, and trackpad function immediately came back.

At least on my Skylake Asus notebook, VooodooI2C is able to automatically hotpatch for the polling method if strictly hotpatching is used, no static dsdt.

the antelope launcher 2.24 say me still not seeing you device
whys the problem ? Via usb he recognizes it directly at the thunderbolt I have to exchange 30 times usb with thunderbold. By chance he recognizes the discreet under thunderbolddo I need a different company?

How did you make the I2C works? I have a hp zbook studio G5 and the I'm trying to make it works. I checked your website and seems you have removed GPIO and I2C patches.

Please share with us. Thank you!
