I2C and/or CFG lock issues?

I am attempting to install (starting with Catalina) macOS on my HP Elitebook x360 1030 G3.

I used this guide to configure my BIOS, and built my EFI solo using ProperTree and deep research into my laptop's exact hardware. Yes, I painstakingly mapped my USB ports.

Down in the guide, the creator specifically mentions the CFG lock being an issue. I looked for an option to disable it, but found none. As per the guide, I used the "AppleXcpmCfgLock" kernel quirk and I think that is working okay. However, my new and current issue is this error message:

AppleIntelLpssI2CController::_serviceMatchingTimeSubr: fTimerServiceMatching timed out, fnotifications 0

This points to the I2C controller.. which is like touchpad, touchscreen, keyboard?

Specifically the touchscreen had me suspicious with this error, and I was using the I2C driver of course. I tried disabling these devices in the BIOS and removing the Kext in the config.plist. This just cause an issue where it wouldn't detect peripherals. PS2 controller error.

Does anyone know a solution? Feel free to request any information (related to the hackintosh of course).
