SOLVED Intel HD4000 macOS Monterey 12.6 - Laptop's internal display not working, External monitor is working - Dell inspiron 15R SE ( 7520)

[abdulahath]

Dear Admin,

I hackintoshed my Dell laptop inpiron 15R SE (7520) with macos Monterey 12.6 from Olarilla's website.
After the installation of Monterey 12.6 , initially my system detected only 4MB of VGA of INTEL HD 4000.

Therefore i installed the application "https://github.com/chris1111/Patch-HD4000-Monterey " .

before the installation i did the below settings.
1. csrutil authenticated-root disable
2. disabled gate keeper
3. enable auto login
4. Using the OC Configurator 0.8.4 csr-active-config ➤ EF0F0000 , SecureBootModel ➤ Disabled , PlatformInfo ➤ MacBookPro13,1
5. Used the boot args " -v alcid=3 watchdog=0 igfxonln=1 -no_compat_check -revsbvmm keepsyms=1 amfi_get_out_of_my_way=1"

After the installation of Patch-HD4000-Monterey my laptop has restarted --> After showing the verbose texts for sometime and my laptop display went to Dark gray screen with many thin horizontal lines that will be clearly seen if you look closely. But i understood that my laptop(Hackintosh) still working in background.
Therefore i connected an external Monitor. It worked and got the display working with the graphics acceleration and macOS detected the intel HD4000 1536MB. Minimize animations are working great.

It is strange that, my internal display is not working with the Monterey after the Patch-HD4000-Monterey. External monitor is working.
Please help me to fix this issue of internal laptop screen. I couldn't find any related issues on internet and forums.


Thanks in Advance

For you information Please refer my EFI folder at "https://github.com/abdulahath/EFI_monterey-12.6.git"

Using of OCLP is preferred.

Attach your EFI to check further.

initially i used the OCLP and got into the same grey screen ( hard disk is worked in background). at that time, i didn't connected the external monitor and checked if it's working.

After the OCLP grey screen , i did another clean install and did the process mentioned in my question using Patch-HD4000-Monterey . Then only I found out that my External monitor is working, but internal screen not working.

My EFI is 40MB , Therefore i couldn't attach. Can you please check my EFI uploaded to
we transfer - https://we.tl/t-gpsAs5w0MD


Just now i tried that , instead of using igfxonln=1 , if i used -igfxvesa . Then it booted without the acceleration and Laptop internal screen is worked and the System is showing 4MB only.

With APFS File System, SSD is recommended.

Your configuration is not as per the guide. You cannot expect it to work.

Yes i'm using the SSD Drive to install Monterey.

I couldn't found the EFI folder for my Laptop model inspiron 15R SE 7520. Therefore, i used the available ivybridge EFI from a site. Please advice me, which EFI folder should i use , that is closest to my laptop.

Using someone's EFI is not advised. You should start with the guide I linked above.

Thank you for your advise. I'am going to start with the guide you have linked.
If i'm getting into any problems, i'll keep you posted.

Thanks again for your time and consideration.

Great. Following the guide will help you not only get a bunch of issues fixed but you'll also get to know about the process.

Hi ,

I have been preparing the EFI as per the instructions mentioned in the guide you have provided. I've finished the things mentioned in the article "#post-7590 - Setting up config.plist" .

Then the next post "#post-7591 - Selecting a config.plist File" is confusing to me. It says

We've already created a separate thread on configuring your config.plist to boot the installer. Depending on your hardware, configure the config.plist according to the guide. Depending on the Platform and CPU you have, select the appropriate config.plist building guide.

But there is no reference to the separate thread to follow up with. The guide links also not mentioned as per the attached screenshot.

Please advise me to go further from this.
Thanks in Advance

When i'm checking the forum sections , i found a thread https://elitemacx86.com/threads/how...-booting-macos-on-intel-laptops.612/post-4064

is that the separate guide , the previous guide is instructing to follow?
