Hi Guys.
Like others in this thread i am able to boot osx with no issues from the nvme as long as i boot clover from a USB device(HDD/SSD/Flash .. etc) and then select the osx installation on the Nvme, however, if i boot clover from the Nvme (exact same EFI/Clover folder as on USB) then OSX will KP immediately once selected ...
I have 2017 15" HP Spectre X360 which also suffers from this apparent uefi/bios issue ... that the 2017 HP Envy users are seeing, I've been looking into the issue but so far have been unable to fix it.
Question to the Envy users: If you boot clover from the nvme is the touch screen keyboard enabled ? do you get a keyboard icon in top right corner which toggles on screen touch keyboard .... if so then presumably if you boot clover from USB you have no touch screen keyboard ?
I believe that for some reason the uefi/bios is treating clover (when booted from nvme) in a similar way to the HP diagnostics and enabling the touch screen and touch keyboard during post os boot ... if so then it maybe switching the nvme device into some sort of test or diagnostic mode ...
Its just a theory right now but i would like confirmation from you HP Envy guys if the touch screen & touch keyboard is behaving like it is on my 2017 HP Spectre X360 (enabled if clover booted from nvme / disabled if booted from usb) ..
I've installed Linux to the nvme and grub/grub2 does not suffer from this issue .. (no touch keyboard active during post).
For now i am using a tiny USB flash drive to negate the issue, the USB 3 Type C port is working fine so most of the time i can leave the tiny USB flash drive plugged into the laptop... i've added custom UEFI entries for each OS .. so its not a massive issue, just need to press f9 at boot and select which os to boot, not prefect i know but workable for now until i find a solution.
Cheers
Jay
