Hi Guys, when I first came in touch with the Hackintosh world I installed MacOS with the Clover Vanilla installation method (Old post). Overall the experience was good but some parts of the system where not working 100% properly. So I decided to try out the Open Core method. I followed the vanilla guide from the sidebar and after some time of trial and error I finally got it working! (I will link my full EFI at the bottom of this post) At the moment I'm just struggling with two problems: Heavy bluetooth stutters and sidecar is not working (More at the end of this post). My system specs:
At the first glance the vanilla guide was just overwhelming me with a ton of information. Especially the part with the SSDT's. So read the information carefully and follow the Getting started with ACPI guide. Double check if you inserted the correct variables for your hardware from the DSDT file. The SSDT's I ended up using are:
The firmware drivers that I used are:
The KEXTs are:
In order to configure the config.plist I used the tool ProperTree. This tool detects the drivers and kexts automatically and adds them in the right place. The only thing I noticed is, that it disables some of the kexts via the enable attribute. So keep an eye open for that. The SMBIOS I'm using is iMac19,1. To get iMessage working a custom serial and uuid have to be generated. I deleted this part in my config.plist in the linked files. All the steps needed can be found in the afore mentioned open core vanilla guide linked in the sidebar of the Hackintosh reddit. So far everything is working fine, except bluetooth and sidecar. Bluetooth is active and I can add devices and I'm also able to use them but the connections seems to be very laggy. Audio transmitted over bluetooth is stuttering very heavily and the Magic Mouse has got a very unpleasant delay. For Sidecar I'm able to connect to my iPad (connected over usb). The client launches on the iPad and getting stuck at a black screen. MacOS though recognizes it as successfully connected and as a second screen. In the end I'm still very happy with the result and I hope I can solve at least the Bluetooth issues.
