Hi there,
Little update: I did not manage to find a USB-C key to test the port yet, I did find a USB-A/USB/C adapter but this didn't work (tested both MacOS and Windows) so I think I need to get a real USB-c device to try. Is it possible I did not configure the BIOS properly?
Specifically I am...
Thanks! This thread can be closed then unless it's ok to keep it open until I get a USB-C key and confirms it works.
If it does, it looks like my Hack is finally all set up, thanks again for your time, I really appreciated this
Last PR files for the road 🤞 Does everything look ok now for USB-C and TB 3?
I'll get a USB-C key next week to check and confirm that the implementation actually works.
OK
I enabled the two SSDts changed BIOS settings and now Hackintool looks like this:
Connecting the HomePod did not turn the USB-C port green but I don't think it behaves like a USB key so I'll get one later.
But as the port seems to be seen by Hackintool maybe I don't need to remap all...
OK
I removed the "Device (SSP2)" entry and got no error when saving so this is done. I will now enable this SSDT along with DTGP.aml in plist, change TB settings in BIOS, reset NVRAM.
Once this is done, I will remove my current USBPorts.kext and then redo the whole USB mapping with Hackintool...
Are you saying this because the USB-C port is not showing? That is because it is my current USBPorts.kext where I have only kept USB 3 ports + Bluetooth.
I will redo the USB mapping from scratch using the HomePod to identify the USB-C port (hope it works) so that it's included in USBPorts.kext...
Ah damn.... I guess that I can use the HomePod mini at least to discover the USB-C port in Hackintool and add the proper port to the USBPorts.kext?
? I don't get it, this is a screenshot of my ports as they are now as I only did the mapping for USB 3 ports so far. I've added it again in the PR...
Hi There,
Thanks again for your support so far, the hack rocks :D
The last piece of the jigsaw is to enable the onboard Thunderbolt 3 port which also acts as a USB-C port with a JHL 7540 Thunderbolt 3 USB controller [Titan Ridge 2C 18]. The problem is that I do not currently have a TB3 or a...
Ok I made it work but...
When using the iPad connected with USB I have no issues everything is smooth but when connecting wirelessly the mouse pointer is very laggy and the iPad disconnects sometimes. I don't remember having this before so could it be a tweak to do within the plist or maybe...
Hi there,
Thanks to your help my system is now stable, I would just like to mirror real iMacs and enable iGPU (headless) so that I can use Sidecar etc.
In order to achieve that, do I just add the following to the DeviceProperties section of the config plist :
PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0) ...
We can consider this as closed then, Just to confirm can I edit the BIOS as per the video? So enable XMP etc.
Besides that point I think this thread can be closed now yes
Yes it does sound really good and I think the system is stable now, I've been running it all day and had no issues.
Tell me more please, I'm really curious as I do use my iPad as an extended display quite often and can't for the moment:)
Shouldn't adding this to the config.plist under...
Hi there,
Just wanted to report that I did a new installation of MacOS with the modified EFI and it went perfectly well.
I'm not having freezes or reboot+panic at boot but I'll monitor during the weekend to make sure it's stable before tweaking the BIOS.
I have noticed however that sidecar...
It is but I only applied the settings you suggested after reset:
- Disable Fast Boot
- Enable Intel Virtualization Technology
- Disable VT-d
- Disable IGPU.
+ Disabling Thunderbolt
I watched the video for ASrock BIOS and there seem to be a few more other things to do. Should I do it or just...
