HELP! HP Elite X2 1012 G2 Hackintosh

By Ufuk Durgun

So I've been trying to install MacOS on my HP Elite. I keep getting an error before the installer boots. I feel like Ive tried everything, but I don't want to give up. I've tried following like 20 different guides and used both the included EFI folders from the guides as well as starting from scratch. I've also tried cover and opencore. Below are the error codes I get and a copy of the HP Elite's specs. Please help!!

Starting from scratch:

ACPI error:Method parse/execution failed [\SB.PC10.LPCB.EC0.GBAW] (Mode fffff9bd5d8d900), AE Bad PARAMETER (20160938/parse-632)

ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_SB..PC10.LPCB.EC0.-Q08] (Mode fffff9bd5d80540), AE_BAD_PARAMETER (20160930/psparse-632)

Following the guides:

Lenovo ThinkPad T480 has no OS, repair shop wants too much for a fresh Windows install!

By Ufuk Durgun
Lenovo ThinkPad T480 has no OS, repair shop wants too much for a fresh Windows install!

Hello! Like the title says, my laptop has no OS installed; I was trying to uninstall Linux (followed all steps from an online guide) and it uninstalled Windows too… I’m primarily a Mac person, so I’m not sure how to solve this.

Anyways, I went to a computer repair shop and they want $195 to reinstall Windows + drivers and updates, but the issue is, this computer only cost me $250. It’s a backup computer so it’s not urgent, but I also don’t wanna pay that to reinstall Windows.

That being said, I am, as I always have been, a MacOS first person, and I’ve never had a Hackintosh before. Is this a device I could co-opt into a Hackintosh? Can someone walk me through it?

Why is my computer skipping the opencore installer?

By Ufuk Durgun
Why is my computer skipping the opencore installer?

Hello everybody, this is my first attempt at a hackintosh with an old HP Elitebook 8470p (Intel Core i5 3320M).

I'm following the guide on https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/ to install but i feel like i am missing something?

First i used rufus, set my 16gb USB Drive to non-bootable and set the file system to FAT32, then i added the rest of the files and directories according to the guide, and ended with this:

https://preview.redd.it/eyw9luumqllc1.png?width=460&format=png&auto=webp&s=6761cd667cdce4d68342929467f2703fd229694f

But when i start my computer and select to boot from it, it just skips it entirely and moves on to windows.

Is anything visibly wrong with my directory? Should i change something in BIOS settings before? Thanks in advance, and sorry if this is something stupid i am overlooking.

Hey guys I’m trying to so this one more time!anyone care to help?

I have a haswell hp elitedesk 800 g1 usdt, which i read over and over can run monterey well but i get to the apple loading screen, and about a quarter of the way and i can’t figure the rest out. Its been a couple weeks now so im reaching out for help again, because you guys are great! I’m guessing the problem is in my EFI folder so I’m placing a link to the folder and I put it in the Google Drive if anyone has some time to take a look at it, I would really appreciate it as I’m pretty much stuck. I posted on this a couple weeks ago. There are more pictures of problems I had along the way there but I’ve got a lot further now but if you need some more information that I haven’t provided here I’m sure it’s in the last post or just message me and I will answer very quickly, I’ll post the link in a moment I’m just figuring out how to do that lol

I'm a little confused...

By Ufuk Durgun

So I have a 2016 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar I'd love to put Sonoma on but am honestly so confused on how todo it. Obviously at first the process is simple. Create a USB using the Mac's original SMBIOS within the patcher app and Sonoma but here is where the problem lies - When I install Sonoma I get no TouchBar or Touch ID. Weirdly, I do get a little esc button on the TouchBar in the MacOS Basesystem recovery thingy majig for Sonoma but that's about it, nothing after that.

I was told to keep Monterey and somehow upgrade to Sonoma from that but I'm confused.

Success install BUT no sound, no bluetooth

By Ufuk Durgun

So this was the fastest hackintosh i've ever did,

My laptop is lenovo e14
i5-10 gen

8G RAM

256 NVME

Really smooth install without any issue using OpenCore docs, however, i don't have any sound, or bluetooth but i'm not worried about bluetooth now

I've used Apple ALC kext for sound and followed the below doc for fixing sound

https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/universal/audio.html#fixing-audio-with-applealc

I found that my codec is (Conexant CX8070/CX11880) and i should use (alcid=15 or 21) unfortunately they're not working, i tried to use SSDT-HPET fixes but still no luck

Hackintool doesn't even show any sound devices, and connecting HDMI doesn't either show audio device

Not booting without usb

By Ufuk Durgun
Not booting without usb

I have set up my Hack with MacOS Big Sur and it mostly works fine. But I can't manage to boot without the usb. It wouldn't boot using the drive the system is installed. I've already copied the existing folder from the USB to the existing folder in macOS but it still doesn't work. Could it be a problem with the bios settings? Also a small problem I have is the scroll wheel of my mouse scrolls in the opposite direction. I would appreciate any help 🙏

No Phone Calls and Messages not syncing with my Hack

By Ufuk Durgun

So I had installed Monterey on my Hackbook and was running it with an intel Wifi card. Handoff was half working and messages used to sync pretty quickly and almost always.

So whenever I got a text on my iPhone, I used to get it almost at the same time on my laptop.

Now, I swapped the intel card with a BCM94360CS2 card and everything works perfectly except messages and phone calls.

90% of the time the messages simply dont arrive on my hack and almost all the time whenever I get a call on my phone, it wont show up on my hack

I am able to transfer calls to the hack once I pickup from my phone and iMessage does work.

I havent reset the nvram or anything after the wifi card swap

Any help would really be appreciated. Thankyou!

By Ufuk Durgun

I've been on a mission to find the highest end parts that will work for a solid hack, capable of running Sonoma, since I plan to dual-boot it into windows for higher end games, VR, etc. After reading a lot of guides, researching parts, etc. I think I have my final list, and I'd love any feedback y'all might have:

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/VfvVyg

I'm particularly interested in feedback on the networking on the motherboard:

  • Qualcomm Wi-Fi 7 QCNCM865
  • Marvell AQtion AQC107 10GbE LAN chip
  • Intel 2.5GbE LAN chip

Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. 😁

OpenCore 0.9.8 (REL) Sonoma black screen on boot (Laptop)

By Ufuk Durgun

Hey everyone, I currently have a HP pavilion dk0056wm, and I decided to upgrade from Monterey to Sonoma. Everything was fine up until the first restart of the system, where boot args were going for about thirty seconds and then nothing for 2 minutes then a restart (in safe mode) to desktop. Problem is without safe mode I just get a black screen. I currently don’t have access to logs but here’s my specs and EFI:

HP Pavilion 15” dk0056wm CPU: Intel Core i5-9300h RAM: 16GB Crucial 2400MHz Storage: 256 GB KIOXIA drive (NVMe) GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 630 (1650 disabled)

Also I use a Razer Huntsman TE and a DeathAdder v2 if that makes a difference

Thank you all for your help and consideration!

Successfully Installed MacOs Sonoma on Ice Lake laptop, now what?

By Ufuk Durgun

So for some time i wanted it to have. a mac laptop but they are way to expensive, So yes I went the Hackintosh way. Now I have sonoma installed on my hp notebook 15-dyxx, all seems fine to know. Wifi is working, graphics are working, trackpad is working, I know ice lake don't have HDMI support so that's ok for now.

After being a windows guy for over 25 years or more. I wanted to give mac a chance since I always see younlinks using cool software to edit video and music, and since I want my kids to start learning that path, I thought ill give. atry so I can start teaching my kids on how to use a mac and its apps.

So I got a few questions.

I know airdrop (whatever that is) is broken in sonoma with intel cards, I'm using a ax200 at the moment. What other things should I be aware of that are broken? I don't own an iPhone or an iPad so fancy features are not required yet. But what cool things can we do with a mac that are better here than in windows. So far I looked at google and the top mac software its available in windows to, so I'm not sure if it was worth the trouble. Whats so wonderful about having a mac?

thanks for your kind advice.

Lenovo G500 - Sonoma 14.3.1

Lenovo G500 - Sonoma 14.3.1

Hi :D

This is my Lenovo G500 with Sonoma. I used OpenCore following the dortania´s guide to create the EFI and a Sonoma offline installer obtained from a real MacBook. I had to use a different SMBIOS to install it (MacBookPro15,2 instead of MacBookPro9,2) because the installer said this Mac was not supported. After a successfull install, I changed the SMBIOS again and added the boot arg -no_compat_check (to enable CPU power management).

I also had to use OCLP to patch the graphics card since the h4000 isn't supported in Sonoma.

Everything is working good (I didn't have enough time to test it, but by the moment everything works)

Wasn't easy... but it's done and seems great (but has some issues)

By Ufuk Durgun
Wasn't easy... but it's done and seems great (but has some issues)

Sonoma on this rig seemed impossible, but well turns out it isn't. Specs: - CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 1200 - GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB (ASUS STRIX) - RAM: 16GB (Dual Channel) 2133 MHz DDR4 - SSD: Kingston 120GB SATA (+ other drives) - Mobo: MSI B350M PRO-VD Plus

What works: - Ethernet + iMessage/FaceTime - Nvidia Web Drivers -> Dual Monitor Setup 60Hz/144Hz, QE/CI (Geekbench score is around 37000) - Widget Sharing between iPhone and Hackintosh - All audio ports (front and rear speaker/mic ports, HDMI/DP audio) - All USB ports work - Etc.

What doesn't: - Sleep can be applied but after pressing power button nothing happens, but I don't bother as I don't use sleep - Firefox won't start, it freezes at startup, tried several versions - Well the GPU works well however the macOS animations are somehow limited to 30 FPS

The last two would be great to fix, any ideas are appreciated!

Needs work: - AirDrop - Bluetooth and WiFi I ordered the Fenvi T919 card so that will be done too.

GIGABYTE Z490 Aorus Master crashing after update to Ventura

By Ufuk Durgun

Hi,

I've been making my hackintoshes for a long time; if my memory serves me correctly, I started with Snow Leopard. I never had any issues with it, always using the Dortania guide, until the day I updated my Monterrey to Ventura. It was working perfectly until after a few hours, when it started to freeze and reboot on its own, then I got an error saying that it crashed with a bunch of codes. I read, and watched many Forums and YouTube, I revised the EFI numerous times without getting any good results. Are there any of you here with a similar configuration that you've used with Ventura or Sonoma that resulted positively?

Configuration:

  • Motherboard: GIGABYTE Z490 Aorus Master,
  • Processor: Intel - Core i9-10900 10-core - 20-Thread - 2.8 GHz,
  • Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe® M.2 SSD 1TB,
  • Memory: HyperX Fury 32GB 3200MHz DDR4,
  • Graphics: Sapphire Radeon Pulse RX 580 8GB,
  • SMBIOS Product Name: iMac20,2,
  • Bootloader: Opencore 0.9.8,
  • WiFi/Bluetooth: Fenvi T919,OS: Monterrrey.

Smallest form factor (hackintoshable) device, with M.2 socket, to read S.M.A.R.T. M.2 NVMe data, because MacOS won't read M.2 SMART data from external sources. Or alternatives like SMART enabled dongles/readers.

By Ufuk Durgun

I use a lot of M.2 SSDs, mostly for writing data, I've lost some important data to corruption after SSDs' health/life went below 60%. So need a MacOS device to periodically check M.2 health.

Real Macs (macbooks/mac minis) don't have M.2 slots.

As per title, looking for a smallest form factor (hackintoshable) device that has M.2 socket, so I can plug in M.2 NVMe drives to check their health status/TB written using telemetry apps like Sensei.

Ideally Intel 10th gen(for better OC compatibility), with working internal WiFi - without the need to use external WiFi cards that need to use M.2 slot - this would defeat the purpose of the device.

Currently running 2 ITX Z490-based hacks. Gigabyte Z490I-Aorus/AsRock Z490M-ITXac. Too big, not portable. Other devices are real Intel/M1/M2 Macs. Have tried various M.2 enclosures/hubs/dongles - none can read SMART data. ALl of them use the same few JMicron/Realtek chip variants with no SMART support.

So far the smallest(supported) I could find is Intel Nuc 10. Still too big, but the best option so far.

Ideally something the size of a microcontroller like Raspberry Pi.

Alternatively, open to suggestions for S.M.A.R.T. enabled M.2 enclosures/dongles, but couldn't find anything, in fact, it seems no such tech exists.

Red blocking on AMD graphics on OCLP 1.3 and latest Sonoma

By Ufuk Durgun

Does anyone else get this? I have a dual graphics 2015 MacBook Pro with the M370X. Sometimes when something moves, the menu bar parts that moved will turn red, but I know it's not GPU corruption because if I switch to a different desktop and back it goes away. Sometimes parts of webpages do this on loading, but again go away on completion or scrolling.

The Iris Pro 5200 doesn't do this, but has its own bugs (can't run memories in photos without the AMD card, and can't complete Geekbench or GFXbench etc), the AMD M370X is the only one to do it.
