Am I doing something wrong?
Image
https://imgur.com/a/k3LMH2m Had great luck with a laptop, my main pc which is a Optiplex 755 not so much.. Got a El Capitan installer and it won't boot into it at all. First time no progress bar at all and was greeted by a IOPlatform error, looked online and changed my SMBIOS using clover configurator. Second time: Progress bar! But it doesn't boot still. It fills up and that's it, used -v and got a bluetooth error (I'll try again after posting this and catch a picture of it.) Also it's not a niresh distro, it's 100% Apple OS X (Though i made it with unibeast so it's not really vanilla) I'll post more pictures in a minute. submitted by /u/iShoveBabiesUpMyAss [link] [comments] [► Source]
High Sierra reboots at plus line
Image
Hello everyone, I am trying to install Hackintosh for my own educational purposes on a Dell Optiplex 7020 which I have upgraded with a GTX 970. System Specs are as follows: CPU: Intel 4790 GPU: Nvidia GTX 970 Memory: 12GB Dell Generic When I start the installation process from Clover, no matter what options I seem to chose it gets to the +++++++++++++++++ line then immediately reboots itself and boots back into Clover. I'm sure it has something to do with my plist files, but I don't know how to properly create one without a mac on hand, so I downloaded my copy from Hackintosh zone. I'm pulling my hair out. Can anyone help? https://imgur.com/a/bGG7phX submitted by /u/HappyManny1986 [link] [comments] [► Source]
Clover High Sierra Install Crash
Image
I have gotten my system to boot to Clover and I can successfully navigate the High Sierra installer USB. When I go to install High Sierra, it will run until "About 2 minutes remaining" and then shuts off. I am running a Samsung 960 EVO and have formatted it to Mac Extended Journaled (Named "OSX (NVMe)", if that makes a difference"). When my computer reboots, I can go back into clover and only the USB appears as bootable. I have apfs.efi and HFSPlus.efi drivers in the "drivers64UEFI" folder and the following kexts under "kexts/Other": AppleALC FakePCIID_Intel_HD_Graphics FakePCIID FakeSMC IntelGraphicsFixup IntelMausiEthernet Lilu Shiki USBInjectAll XHCI-300-series-injector Any my system is: Intel i3 8100 with iGPU Gigabyte H370N Wifi with Broadcom wifi card I don't know whether this crash is the USB, kexts, drivers or something else.

SSD becomes unmounted after installing High Sierra
Image
I have had High Sierra installed on my SSD for about 5 months with no problems. All of the sudden, about a week ago, the hard drive it was installed on disappeared from the clover menu. When I investigated a little more, I found out that the hard drive was unmounted. I unplugged and plugged back in the sata cable, and also performed a fresh install, and nothing so far has worked. What's weird is that I can install and boot it up no problem the day of, but after it sits for awhile the drive becomes unmounted again. I'm really not sure what the problem is, and can't find that much info online. If anyone has any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated Specs Ryzen 1700 GTX 970 AMD Prime A-320m-k motherboard 16GB RAM submitted by /u/Reverse_Shark_Attack [link] [comments] [► Source]

T-Mobile and Sprint Officially Announce Merger Agreement [Video]
Image
T-Mobile and Sprint today announced they have entered into a definitive agreement to merge. The combined company will be named T-Mobile. The merger is an all-stock transaction at a fixed exchange ratio of 0.10256 T-Mobile shares for each Sprint share or the equivalent of 9.75 Sprint shares for each T-Mobile US share. Based on closing share prices on April 27, this represents a total implied enterprise value of approximately $59 billion for Sprint and approximately $146 billion for the combined company. The New T-Mobile will have the network capacity to rapidly create a nationwide 5G network with the breadth and depth needed to enable U.S. firms and entrepreneurs to continue to lead the world in the coming 5G era, as U.S. companies did in 4G. The new company will be able to light up a broad and deep 5G network faster than either company could separately. T-Mobile deployed nationwide LTE twice as fast as Verizon and three times faster than AT&T, and the combined company is positioned...
[HELP] Error while trying to boot macOS High Sierra installer in Clover, error loading kernel cache
Image
Hello everyone ! I'm new to the hackintosh world, and in macOS in general, so please be indulgent with me ^^ I'm trying to make a hackintosh running macOS High Sierra, I created my bootable USB stick with Clover, on a 2006 iMac. When trying to boot "macOS Install from Install macOS High Sierra" option, I get an error (in verbose mode): "Error loading kernel cache (0x7)". I tried using "-f" and "UseKernelCache=No" arguments, I still get the "Error loading kernel cache (0x7)". Can someone help me? ^^ submitted by /u/Tea-Ess [link] [comments] [► Source]
Os X 10.10.5 Security Update and GTX 970
Image
I'm on Yosemite OS X 10.10.5 with a GTX 970 (nVidia Web Drivers). I never installed the last Yosemite Security update 2017-003 I believe, because from what I understood, that update would break GTX 970 compatibility, and nVidia didn't release a newer driver to fix it. As a result, I can't download the newest iTunes 12.7 to keep my iPhone X backed up. iTunes 12.6 works fine with my iPHone 6, but I just upgraded. Does anyone know how accurate this is? My nVidia control panel tells me the driver is the latest, and I don't want to break the hackintosh by installing the security update in order to install iTunes. I'm just wondering what my best course of action is. I don't really want to update the OS out of fear of breaking what's working, but it would be nice to be able to use my new iPhone with the hackintosh and not have to boot into Windows 10 to do backups. I'm sure down the line I will want to upgrade the 970 to something else, but I'm sure my curr...
High Sierra on i7-2700k?
Image
I have an old machine laying around that I thought about making into a Hackintosh but I'm wondering if it'll be any good? - i7-2700k - MSI Z77A-G45 - 32GB DDR3-1866 I also don't have a graphics card for it at the moment but I was thinking of picking up something cheap. Would anyone have any suggestions of a decent card or should I just stick with the on-board Intel HD graphics? Any suggestions are more than welcome! :) submitted by /u/fragment137 [link] [comments] [► Source]
Partitioning hard drive ?
Image
I will switch my PC from Windows to hackintosh today. I have a 256GB SSD that I will use for the OS X system. I am thinking about partitioning that drive : *40-50GB for OS X only (system and library) * 200GB for my datas (home folder) and app. So, when I'll need to reinstall the system there's no problem with formating the OS X drive. I'll still have my datas and app. What do you guys think ? submitted by /u/juluss [link] [comments] [► Source]

Unable to boot El Capitan : Stuck "GeforceSensors : starting early shadow VBIOS"
Image
Hi everyone, My Hackintosh ( Build : Gigabyte Z170XP SLI, Intel i7 6800, Nvidia GTX970, Corsair 32GB Ram ) suddenly stopped booting (haven't made any changes at all even in the BIOS ). The only thing I see is that before everything happened it booted by itself and prompt a bios window asking me to choose to use "last optimal setup" because a pb appeared. At first I got stuck a this "GeforceSensors : starting early shadow VBIOS". I tried going into safe mode : got stuck at this " pxsx cannot assert wake from D3cold" So then I found someone who solved this pb by updating the gigabyte BIOS firmware. Installed the latest one for ( F22f ) and now the UEFI Partition isn't even recognized. I found a trick on the forum for this but since I can't open my original EFI partition it doesn't really help yet : https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-uefi-clover-boot-option-gone-after-bios-update.211715/ I made a bootable USB with el capitan and unibeas...
Hackintosh stuck on grey screen during boot.

Hello all, sorry in advance for formatting, I'm on my phone. I recently installed MacOS onto my old i7 960 and Radeon HD 6970 machine. I got it to install fine but while booting I get snagged on a grey screen. I left it on overnight and it was still grey in the morning. I tried booting with -x and it booted fine and I setup the machine well. Here's the thing, I'd prefer not to always be in safe mode. How should I get around this?

Opinions on Dual Booting my laptop with macOS for the purpose of Graphic Designing
Image
Okay. This pops in my mind. I have a friend who has a mac laptop who uses it for editing. In terms of optimization of apps, I can see that his laptop is performing well compare to my laptop. (Im still a student so my laptop is still stuck with 6gb of ram and a 940mx gpu). What I would like to ask is, is it okay to dual boot it with Mac? Just for the sake of Adobe products running optimized? Basically, i will partition my hard disk to 500gb for mac, and another 500gb for windows. Mac OS X will only be used in editing and browsing while the Windows OS will be used for mild gaming. Another question, if it happens that I did it, will it ruin the files that I created on a windows OS? Specs of my laptop Model: Lenovo Ideapad 15 320ikb Cpu: I5 7200U Ram: 6gb Gpu: intel hd graphics 600 + Geforce 940mx Hdd: 1TB EDIT: Im planning to get a 2TB hdd and partution it 1Tb for each os. submitted by /u/cosmoph [link] [comments] [► Source]
Blinking gIOScreenLockState 3, by itself, without anything else

Hello! I think I'm almost there... ALMOST. I'm running a GeForce 210 (It's more supported than the HD2500 on my i5-3340S), and I'm getting a blinking gIOScreenLockState 3 at the top left corner of my screen, but there is a very quick flash of text right below it. Using the slow motion on my phone, (this)[ http://imgur.com/LKooQ1R ] is what I figured out it is saying. Specs: Dell Inspiron 660s - Intel i5-3340S - 8GB DDR3-1600 - MSI GeForce 210 1GB DDR3 - 1TB HDD (with windows already installed) Side question: I installed clover on the HDD, but when I press F12 for boot options, it just shows up "Windows Boot Manager," and no clover.

Hackintosh vs Actual Macbook
Image
Hey Hackintoshers, I recently upgraded an old 2007 iMac for my dad as a Birthday present (it's a 7, 1) and in doing so I had the opportunity to learn a lot about the Mac OS and I've fallen in love with it. I've been using Windows my entire life and it's been fantastic, but something about Mac OS really appeals to me. Because of this, I'm really considering purchasing a new laptop with Mac OS but whether that's a Hack or authentic is TBD. I will be using this for my own recreational use as well as my college laptop. I am a triple major in Comp. Sci, Information Security, and Applied Math so specs are important. Finally, I'm trying to do this on a budget of about $3-600 Here's where I'm at now: I currently have a 2015 Surface Book 1 w/ 256gb SSD, 8gb RAM, and discrete dgpu. I love this machine and all of its functionality, and honeslty I'd love to be able to keep it and just run Mac OS on it, but from what I've read on here, that usually doesn...
For the life of me, I can't get turbo boost to work on my Z170 / 6700K
Image
So the 6700k is a 4.0ghz CPU with 4.2Ghz turbo mode. I know it's ridiculous to fuss over 200 mhz but damnit, I want to know why this isn't working! Things I've tried: Piker Alpha's SSDTgen w/plugintype ON Piker Alpha's SSDTgen w/plugintype OFF No SSDT.aml Speed Step on Speed Step off Motherboard 'System Power Management' on Motherboard 'System Power Management' off So far running with SpeedStep ON, System Power Management ON, No SSDT, and PluginType ON results in the widest array of states and a low power state of 800mhz. I.E. It's the best I've gotten so far. However none of these get me to a 4.2ghz turbo in Intel Power Gadget.

How do I install macOS (High Serria) on a usb stick?
Image
I'm honestly desperate. I already have the installer ready. I'll install macOS on the usb drive. Nope, doesn't boot. I'll select the USB in boot menu, and it will go black for less then a second and go back to the boot menu. I've tried both my custom built PC and my ASUS N550JV laptop. Someone told me to follow the second set of instructions on this tutorial, but the command (copied exactly, replaced with drive name) didn't work. I have secure boot turned off, there may be something in the BIOS interfering, but I honestly don't think so. Help is very appreciated; this is my first hackintosh. submitted by /u/MrSquirly [link] [comments] [► Source]
8 Mesh Wi-Fi Alternatives to Apple's Discontinued AirPort Routers
Image
Now that Apple has discontinued its AirPort lineup of wireless routers, you may be looking for an alternative. Rather than purchasing a standalone router, you may want to consider a multi-node system. Wireless mesh routers use multiple access points to provide strong, reliable WiFi across your entire home or office. Most wireless mesh routers provide better network management, improved security, and can be easily controlled via a smartphone. While mesh routers for home are a fairly recent development, there are now many options to choose from. Here's eight popular systems listed from best to worst in customer satisfaction. Please note, if you have a smaller area to cover, many of these are offered with just one or two devices as well.

Dell e7470 Ethernet keeps saying unplugged

Hi there I recently created a Dell e7470 High Sierra hackintosh following this guide: https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/8506-dell-latitude-inspiron-precision-vostro-xps-clover-guide/?tab=comments#comment-74275 I'm nearly finished but I'm encountering a frustrating issue with the ethernet, using RehabMan's IntelMausiEthernet.kext I installed the kext as usual, rebooted and saw the green light in network settings and was connected without issue, but after a reboot it would show the connection as 'unplugged'. Re-installing the kext, then rebooting works, but I can't help but feel there might be some kind of permission issue causing it to stop working after a reboot? Any ideas?
