You'll have to install Clover in Legacy mode, UEFI is not supported in the model. Remove AppleIntelHDGraphicsFB.kext in /S/L/E. After install, you'll need to remove it in the Installed drive again to be able to get to the desktop. Then install the patched graphics kext for your particular resolution.

 

This is assuming you have the 1st generation Intel HD graphics. If you have the nvidia graphics, then you can ignore the above about removing the FB.

Most likely it's not loading the graphics. You'll be able to tell by booting without cache or in verbose mode.

To remove the FB, mount the USB Installer from your Mac. Navigate to /System/Library/Extensions of the installer and remove the FB or all of AppleIntelHDGraphics*

"Sun May 15 12:02:16 2016 MacBook-Pro.local com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.apple.bsd.dirhelper.453) <Warning>: Endpoint has been activated through legacy launch(3) APIs. Please switch to XPC or bootstrap_check_in(): com.apple.bsd.dirhelper"

 

This is the last line the install gets to in verbose mode.
