kup1 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Hello, finally got a little time, and trying to get USB3 working with my Mojave install. Using the latest version of Mojave and followed Jake Lo's install guide. Used the bootpack for 10.14.2 from the bottom of this page - The install went OK and fixed the card reader by changing 1 letter in the config file, thank you for that info in the other thread. ATM there' a few little problems, the USB3 ports are only seen as USB2, the ethernet isn't recognised, and FN+F1 shuts down the laptop. Tried a few guides earlier in the week but with no joy. Most guides where suggesting using a port limit patch (but i only have 4 usb ports) ? Tried some different kexts for the ethernet but they also didn't work, also tried what was suggested in the other thread, but no joy. Have uploaded my debug pack, any help would be appreciated, it would be nice to get those last few things working. debug_20338.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kup1 Posted November 15, 2019 Author Share Posted November 15, 2019 No joy, still coming up as USB2. After loading windows to check, there are definitely USB3 ports on the laptop. Thank you for taking the time, to try and solve my problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Hervé Posted November 15, 2019 Administrators Share Posted November 15, 2019 You've got no patched DSDT and, in your Clover config, you've selected ACPI patch "InjectDarwin" instead of "InjectDarwin7". The former sets the OS to Win XP when the latter sets the OS to Win7, i.e. what you need to activate USB3.0 controller support. That or you patch your DSDT to simply inject DSDT alongside Windows Vista ("Windows 2006") or Windows 7 ("Windows 2009"). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kup1 Posted November 15, 2019 Author Share Posted November 15, 2019 Hello Herve, thank you for taking the time to look at my files. Success Finally USB3 is working using Jake's download and your suggestion. Thank you. I didn't realize/notice under the patches section there is a number 2, which takes you to page 2 and more patches, where darwin7 was. Do i need a patched DSDT or is it OK to run without one ? Not really fussed about the FN+F1 shutdown, but do you have any ideas about the ethernet that's not working, some of the other kexts i have tried have the correct pci ven+dev but they are not recognised.

Administrators Hervé Posted November 15, 2019 Administrators Share Posted November 15, 2019 The Clover ACPI patch will suffice for USB3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
