  1. How did you fixed your Trackpad using VoodoI2C? I have ELAN 501 but I have no mouse nor keyboard using I2C kexts from the original site and is not working with your kexts too. This is the very last issue with my Acer V591G, for now I am using EMlyDinEsH's SmartTouchpadDriver but that's very buggy and have basic multi-touch (and non-native emulated scrolling). I appreciate any help with this.
  2. it's an OS thing in my opinion. Same on my Skylake Acer, on Windows draining with ~1-2W (when doing regular things for example browsing), on macOS it's ~5-6W, with dGPU disabled, power management\HWP enabled, I even lowered my idle CPU frequency to see if anything will change but no, I can't do anything about it. on Windows I could use my notebook for ~4 hours, but on mac it's barely 2 hours. That's not problem for me because I often use my laptop for 3D graphics\editing and I need to be on AC every time for that. I wonder what's up with Linux too, maybe the same. Maybe we could have better battery time with an aftermarket battery that has plus mAh.
  3. Use exactly the same Clover folder from my guide, but modify the config.plist for the single ram. Also newer Clover and kexts have problems with older versions of High Sierra. For SATA drives I used a kext called "SATA-100-series-unsupported.kext" try it with older High Sierra, for Mojave it's not needed. I recommend using the latest High Sierra 10.13.6, or Mojave, they most likely don't have this problem. BIOS settings are: UEFI - ON Secure boot - OFF
  4. try RehabMan's HD 630 config: config_HD615_620_630_640_650.plist If worked, generate serial at SMBIOS with Clover Configurator
  5. use MacBookPro14,3 SMBIOS and try ig-platform-id 0x591b0000 or 0x591b0006 Also try with Lilu + Whatevergreen kexts
  6. Acer Aspire V15 V5-591G - Catalina 10.15.4 PLEASE GO TO THIS LINK FOR UPDATED GUIDE: https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/345573-acer-aspire-v-15-v5-591g-catalina-windows-10/ (Note: mine is 55TU version, but the bootpack will work fine with another versions of 591G, for example: V5-591G-71K2, -764Z, -59PU, etc.) Specifications: - Motherboard: USOPP_SLS (Skylake-H PCH) - BIOS: Insyde Corp. v 1.15 - CPU: Intel Core i5-6300HQ 2.3 GHz (Skylake) - GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M 2 GB (Optimus) & Intel HD Graphics 530 - RAM: SK hynix 4 GB DDR4 (Later I bought + KINGSTON 4 GB) 2133 MHz - WiFi + Bluetooth: Qualcomm Atheros QCNFA344A 5 GHz (Later -> Broadcom BRCM94352Z M.2 5 GHz WiFi + 4.0 Bluetooth) - Audio: Realtek HD Audio: ALC 255 - Ethernet: Realtek RTL8168/8111 - Card Reader: Realtek USB 2.0 Card Reader (USB2.0-CRW) - Webcam: HD Webcam - HDD: TOSHIBA MQ01ACF032 320 GB HDD - SSD: KINGSTON A2000 NVMe PCI-e SSD - Display: 1366x768 (15.6", Matte) - Battery: 6 cell 56Wh / 5040mAh - Connectors: 1x SD Card Reader 2x USB 3.0 (1x USB Charging), 1x USB 2.0 1x VGA 1x HDMI 1x 3.5mm microphone/audio combined jack connector 1x Ethernet (Rj-45) - Keyboard & Touchpad: Multi-Touch & Multi-gestures ELAN 501 Touchpad, Backlight Keyboard. Working: - Wi-Fi (with BCM94352Z) - Bluetooth hand-off (With BCM94352Z) - Full Graphics enabled on HD 530: ig-platform-id: 0x191b0000 (HD 530 Mobile) - Display: if default colour profile is corrupted (blue is not actual blue but purplish) Use "Rec. ITU-R BT. 709-5" Color Profile (System Pref. -> Displays -> Color) - HDMI & VGA Outputs: AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy.kext Clover patch - Audio (ALC 255): (Internal Speakers, Internal Microphone, Headphone jack with AppleALC, ALCPlugFix -> layout-id=17) - Ethernet Realtek 8168/8111: RealtekRTL8111.kext - App Store, Messages, FaceTime, Siri, iCloud (native) - Integrated webcam (native) - 3.0 USB (patched SSDT-UIAC.aml) - Touchpad and Keyboard (ELAN501): Fn keys are good, the weird thing is the Brightness key. On my keyboard it's Pause Break:Br-up, Fn+F12:Br-dwn-> To fix this try remapping in System Preferences (VoodoPS2Controller.kext), - for gestures try SmartTouchpad drivers - Battery info - Sleep Mode - NVMe PCI-e x4 SSD - Power Management by SSDT, HWP, PluginType - Hardware decoding/encoding on HD 530 Not working: - Original Wi-Fi (Qualcomm Atheros QCNFA344A): unsupported, you need switch to BCM94352Z or just use a mini usb wifi dongle. - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M: Optimus not supported. - Card Reader: Unsupported -> Can't really fix because I don't have any SD Card at the moment, maybe can be fixed by adding Prod & Ven IDs to AppleStorageDevices.kext, I never used it anyway. name: "USB2.0-CRW" Prod ID: "0x0129" Ven ID: "0x0bda (Realtek Semiconductor Corp.)" For Wi-Fi: - 1st method: You can choose an external USB wifi dongle (I used TP-Link Archer T1U (5GHz support), TP-Link has official macOS drivers, you just need to install it - 2nd and I think the best method: Replace your M.2 Qualcomm Card with a compatible BCM94352Z card (you will have hand-off Bluetooth too), just install the kexts (enabled with BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext, BrcmPatchRAM2.kext, FakePCIID.kext, FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext, they're all in my attached zip). You could buy this card from ebay, aliexpress, or amazon Issues: - None BIOS Settings: - BIOS version 1.15 (irrelevant) - Secure Boot: Disabled - Touchpad: Advanced - Boot mode: UEFI Getting ready for Installation: - Download the install zip (bootpack & postinstall): Click here for Catalina (v5112)-> Acer-V591G_Cata.zip Installation: - Create an installer with any method you know (- Mac: createinstallmedia, gibMacOS - Windows: Transmac, Vmware, Win32diskimager, gibMacOS) - Copy my Clover folder to the USB's EFI folder - Boot with the Installer USB - If you stuck in boot, reboot and in the Clover bootloader select "config_debug.cfg" -> you'll have more informations about the freeze Please open the README.rtf in my install zip for more informations about the USB Installer & Post installation! On Catalina the System folder is read-only, so you need to remount in rw to modify System/Library, and need to disable SIP (note: try to avoid modifying S/L/E, use Clover/kexts/Other instead) If you have a single RAM and getting panic at boot, then you need to edit the "config.plist" with these (SMBIOS->after "Version 1.0"): ->Edit "Frequency" and "Size" to match your RAM values <key>Version</key> <string>1.0</string> <key>Memory</key> <dict> <key>Channels</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>SlotCount</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>Modules</key> <array> <dict> <key>Slot</key> <integer>0</integer> <key>Size</key> <integer>8192</integer> <key>Frequency</key> <integer>2133</integer> <key>Type</key> <string>DDR4</string> </dict> </array> </dict> </dict> Elan SmartTouchpad I only use scrolling, one-, double- & tripletap If you want to try other gestures go to this link for more informations, options (v4.6.5) -> DETAILS ABOUT THE SMART TOUCHPAD DRIVER FEATURES Fn Brightness keys not working with this, tried several things without success. With VoodoPS2Controller it's working, but you'll have no gestures (neither scrolling). You can remap Brightness keys in System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts/Display (I use "Alt+Shift+←" to decrease, "Alt+Shift+→" to increase) Before updating to a new version of Catalina please update kexts (and clover if necessary) to newer versions to avoid kernel panics. Generate a serial number with Clover Configurator.app (open up your config.plist with CC then -> SMBIOS -> Serial Number -> Generate New) Catalina & Windows 10 Dual-Boot: Dual-boot clean install (on one drive), UEFI Only: Boot into your Mac installer, Create 2 partitions in GUID table (1 for Win (I used FAT32 but I think it doesn't matter what you choose), 1 for Mac), Install Mac, boot with your USB, mount your EFI partition (use terminal or an EFI mounter app), create an EFI folder (if there is no folder), copy the CLOVER folder I attached to the EFI folder, restart, Boot into your Win installer, Format the partition you created for Win, install. Now, it's automatically booting into Windows. To use Clover open cmd in administrator, type: bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\CLOVER\CLOVERX64.efi 5. You're done! It will booting into Clover when you start the system, and you can select Win or Mac (or another OS if installed on a 3rd partition). IF YOU GETTING ERRORS DURING WINDOWS INSTALLATION (could not be formatted, etc): - Make sure you have GPT partitions, and GPT (UEFI) installer, also disconnect all external storage drives (except the installer USB) IF YOU CAN'T MOUNT YOUR EFI PARTITION (No EFI partition found): - It's because your EFI is not 200 MB or not an "Apple" original EFI, but do not worry, try another EFI mounter, or mount from terminal (I used EFI mounter v3: Getting errors, but you can mount and use without problem) - You also could "mount" the EFI from Windows: 1st method: open cmd in administrator mode and type: diskpart list vol (Now select the "System" volume,(FAT 32) For example I select 4) sel vol 4 list part (Select System type partition, for example 2) sel part 2 assign letter=b (This will "mount" your EFI partition) Open Explorer++ or TotalCommander in administrator mode to manage EFI remove letter=b (This will "unmount" your EFI) 2nd method: open cmd in administrator mode and type: mountvol b: /s (This will mount your EFI) Open Explorer++ or TotalCommander in administrator mode to manage EFI mountvol b: /d (This will unmount your EFI) Thanks to all OSXLatitude members for helping me out!

  7. also avoid USB 3.0 ports when installing from USB. causing "Still waiting for root device..." freeze
  8. Szia! Kellemes meglepetés. (a fórumon sajnos nem írhatok magyarul mert akkor más nem fogja megérteni) Yes I meant that zip, download and replace CLOVER folder on your USB's EFI Also add the single ram fix mentioned above to the downloaded config.plist
  9. Try the bootpack from this post. My Acer have almost the same specs as yours. For Wifi you have to replace the card because your Realtek PCI-E Wifi is not supported by macOS: Inventory of supported and unsupported wireless cards Also I saw you have only single 8 GB ram so you need to add these lines to your config.plist\SMBIOS after Manufacturer\Apple Inc.: Please modify the Size/Frequency for your specification: <key>Memory</key> <dict> <key>Channels</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>Modules</key> <array> <dict> <key>Frequency</key> <integer>2133</integer> <key>Size</key> <integer>8192</integer> <key>Slot</key> <integer>0</integer> <key>Type</key> <string>DDR4</string> </dict> </array> <key>SlotCount</key> <integer>1</integer> </dict>
  10. Problem resolved with "AppleIntelSLKGraphicsFramebuffer.kext" rollback from 10.14
  11. re: Updated my system to Mojave 10.14.1 and my VGA/HDMI outputs are gone again, not working. Any idea? Maybe need a kext rollback from 10.14?
  12. Hello, I have Mojave 10.14 installed on my system and I have problem with the combo jack audio. It's noisy when I plug in and listening to music, like when you half-plug your jack to the connector. Also Mic isn't working with the combo jack headset. Sound working well with only audio jack (like external speakers). Internal Speakers and Internal Mic are good. External mic (only mic) doesn't tested : lack of mic Tested with another headsets, same results. Working under Windows. Fixed by installing ALCPlugFix and CodecCommander.kext System: CPU: i5-6300HQ 2.8 GHz Audio: ALC 255 (Using AppleALC in EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other, layout-id=3) Tested with VoodoHDA too, same result.
  13. Thanks for help! I found your guide, and I looked up my SKLFrameBuffer table, but that was good. Then I patched AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy with Clover and that is worked for me! HDMI & VGA & Internal are working now. Patch source: https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/316573-sierra-applegraphicsdevicepolicy-clover-patch/ The last thing is HDMI audio, there is no audio on HDMI
