I don't want to buy that app Karabiner. Thanks for you suggestion

I want to know How to remap my keyboard to brightness control keys. I have a Lenovo Z70-80 laptop with Core i7-5500 and my graphics card is Intel HD Graphics 5500 running macOS HS 10.13.6

I followed the RebahMan Guide Patching DSDT/SSDT for LAPTOP backlight control and in a special part it says that if the VoodooPS2Controller.kext doesn't works correctly with your own keyboard We can custom it.

Then, I follow the next steps:

Determining EC query methods:

- install ACPIDebug.kext: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-ACPI-Debug - I installed on S/L/E

- add the ACPIDebug repo to MaciASL "Sources" per README - It is on sources by default

- apply ""Add DSDT Debug Methods" - I added this to my DSDT

- apply "Instrument EC Queries" - I added this to my DSDT

- I added debug.txt too

- In Readme debug says 3 steps, but this final step:

Third, add code to your DSDT to where you wish to cause trace messages to system.log (call \RMDT.PUSH). - I don't understand this part or what code I should add. Please I need support with this special part.

- I added additionally ioio binary file to /usr/bin/ , like it says in the guide

- reboot

- monitor system.log as you press your brightness keys

After I reboot I pressed all FN keys, one by one and with combinations with Fn+ key but nothing.

My DSDT. aml patched file is in /Clover/ACPI/patched and like it says in guide the system.log is created in root, I can understand is the same folder where is my DSDT, after pressed the keys. It doesn't appear anything file.

I don't know maybe I made a mistake in the process.

PD. 
01- I attached my DSDT patched.
02. I get some keys code with the app KeyCodes running over macOS and I tried the same with my microsoft keyboard in my hackintosh Pc and codes are the same. I attached all pictures about it. 


Please help me with the solution.

Thanks in advance

Finally I solved my issue here

I want to know How to get the VGA and HDMI output on the Lenovo Z70-80 laptop with Core i7-5500, my graphics card is Intel HD Graphics 5500 with macOS HS 10.13.6

I read several guides to do it, but it's for Intel HD Graphics 3000 and I tried to do it for my graphics card, looking for similar values and replace them.

Where we should patch the AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext file

A few small examples are here 01 02 03

In another site I found a different file to patch that is AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext, and I searched and replaced the values and tried it with my macOS but nothing. This guide here

And finally I tried this KextsToPatch in my config.plist file

Name: AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB

Find: 01020400100700001007000005030000020000003000000002020500000004000007000000030400000004000009000000040600000004000009000000

Replace: 

01020300100700001007000005030000020000003000000006020000020000003000000002050000000800000700000000000000000000000000000000

commentary: HDMI + VGA

But nothing again ...

In my long adventure to try to make it work, I found different config.plist files to fix the functionality of my Intel HD 5500 graphics card, and I tried differents KextToPatch values, and with a bit of luck I found these values

Name: com.apple.driver.AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy

Search: BA050000 00

Replace: BA000000 00

Comment: prevent AGDP from loading

With the above values I can sync VGA & HDMI output automatically

VGA: In my ViewSonic VX1945wm  with 1440 x 900 res

HDMI: In Samsung TV UN32EH4500G with 1366 x 768 res (the worse resolution) and when I try to change to full HD I can but it has unfocused image, out of frame and with sound without volume control. My TV is  full HD native.

Please I need support from someone who could help me to fix this.

Thanks in advance.

PD. I attached my config.plist file and pictures

config.plist.zip

I solved my issue here
