Issue:
Whenever I plug in the HDMI cable into the laptop, the laptop built-in screen will become black screen. However the external monitor is working fine. I tried mirror mode and standard mode (extended display) and both will result in black screen for the built-in laptop screen.
I need to restart the laptop in order to get the built-in screen to be working again - without plugging in the HDMI cable. Once I plug in the HDMI cable, then it will become black screen again.
Even I have unplugged the HDMI cable from the laptop, the black screen on the built-in monitor remains.
Here is the link to the EFI: https://github.com/skevin83/Hackintosh-Dell-E7470
The EFI folder size exceeded the maximum allowed to be uploaded here. Thus I put it in GitHub.

I performed a fresh installation of Catalina then upgrade to Big Sur.
Thanks.

After the laptop fell into sleep mode and wake up again. Now both external monitor and laptop screen are working fine.
That's interesting.
