See here replace PS2 kext with ApplePS2Controller or Rehabman's VoodooPS2Controller v1.8.29

You have left out all the SSDT's... Here, replace these into /EFI/Clover. Files are for Kabylake HD620. tldrbro's system is Skylake HD520, so it's not suitable for your system. My mistake. Test and report 7280_HD620.zip

Looks fine for UEFI BIOS. Is that the same setting you selected the first time you installed Clover? Post the Clover_Install_Log.txt found on /EFI, it should have details of how it was originally installed. 2 liners like this usually is UEFI like you have in the screenshot Installing BootSectors/BootLoader Stage 0 - Don't write any of boot0af, boot0md, boot0ss to /Volumes/Install macOS High Sierra Stage 1 - Don't write any of boot1h2, boot1f32alt, boot1xalt to /Volumes/Install macOS High Sierra This is usually ESP (Legacy) Backing up EFI files Current Active Partition: 1 Stage 0 - Writting boot0af to /dev/disk1 /Volumes/U/usr/local/bin/fdisk440 -u -f /Volumes/U/usr/standalone/i386/boot0af -y /dev/disk1 Stage 1 - Writting boot1f32 to /dev/rdisk1s1 dd if=/dev/rdisk1s1 count=1 bs=512 of=/tmp/origbs boot volume format is FAT32 cp /tmp/boot1f32 /tmp/newbs dd if=/tmp/origbs of=/tmp/newbs skip=3 seek=3 bs=1 count=87 conv=notrunc dd if=/tmp/newbs of=/dev/rdisk1s1 Setup Active Partition to be: 1 New Active Partition: 1 Stage 2 - Written boot6 (x64) to /Volumes/U/boot

You can install to the HDD but you still need an installer to do that. You don't need a flash drive, you could also create installer to an external USB drive if you have one.

USB issue. Since you're patching your own file, try adding this patch USB3 _PRW 0x6D (Instant Wake)

Make sure to set BIOS settings according to here

Seems your boot loop is due to editing the Config with new Clover Configurator v4.54 and up which changes the ACPI fixes names. Try using an older version v4.53 This shouldn't happen if your Clover loader is at v4297. Go to preference, launch Clover (assuming ming you had install Clover preference during Clover loader install). It should show you current booted version and last installed revision. Confirm if you really have v4297 installed Bootloop <key>Fixes</key> <dict> <key>DeleteUnused</key> <true/> <key>FixIPIC</key> <true/> <key>FixRTC</key> <true/> <key>FixRegions</key> <true/> <key>FixTMR</key> <true/> </dict> Works <key>Fixes</key> <dict> <key>DeleteUnused_400000</key> <true/> <key>FIX_RTC_20000</key> <true/> <key>FIX_TMR_40000</key> <true/> <key>FixIPIC_0040</key> <true/> <key>FixRegions_10000000</key> <true/> </dict> See the naming difference?

run this and post result log show --style syslog | fgrep "Wake reason"

try this, added the generated serial to the working Config configwork.plist.zip

??? Attach the Config that works and the generated one that failed.

Upgrade Clover to latest v4318 Replace content into /EFI/Clover E5430.zip

I also resolved it by adding AirportBrcmFixup + Lilu but I guess that only fix the Wifi. Strangely Trim patch continues working with the short name. I know I don't use the 'trimforce enable' command, but the hot patch only.

I believe you're booting without DSDT/SSDT correct? Use the bootpack I sent tldrbro, update to latest from here It'll be good to know if you're experiencing the same issue with touchpad with new files

Try the installation again with different USB port. If that still fails, you might want to recreate the USB installer

Base guide here, HS on the last post. You could find the bootpack somewhere in this thread

boot with verbose and debug 0x100 mode (no restart of panic)

Generating new serial shouldn't cause boot loop. You should compare the original with the new generated file, could be Clover Configurator might have make other changes automatically.

@tldrbro while you were using the E7x70 files, did you experience this same issue with touchpad after sleep?

Try replacing with this DSDT, keeping the rest DSDT-sleep.zip

Post your DSDT and IOReg with the card inserted

Can you test these 2 DSDT? Make a backup of the original Replace with DSDT, see how that goes. Then replace with DSDT-2, rename as DSDT.aml and test that. Attach IOReg of the results 7280_touchpad.zip

What happens if you just reboot it?

Ok, remove that then. Try placing ApplePS2Controller in /L/E instead Repair permission and rebuild cache

Try this kext instead since it's an Alps

sure, but I won't get into too much details because there's a lot involved and you need to understand what to patch for and why... The following patches are mostly from Rehabman's GitHub https://github.com/RehabMan/Laptop-DSDT-Patch, you might need to make some modification on some of his patches for your needs. 1) you need to decompile the raw files together (found in /EFI/Clover/ACPI/Origin), just need the DSDT plus all the SSDT*, leaving out the rest iasl -da -dl *.aml 2) after that you just patch the DSDT and the SSDT without the xx, i.e. SSDT-5x.aml, etc etc. those can be left out from the final results 3) patch all the rest of the SSDT with these common patches, not all will apply Rename _DSM to XDSM Rename GFX0 to IGPU Rename B0D3 to HDAU Remove _PSS placeholder Haswell HD 4600 Yosemite 4) Patch DSDT Rename _DSM to XDSM Rename GFX0 to IGPU Fix ADBG Error Add IMEI Fix_WAK Arg0 v1 Fix Mutex with non-zero SyncLevel Haswell LPC HPET Fix IRQ Fix OS Check Fix (Windows 7) RTC Fix Shutdown Fix SmBUS Fix USB3_PRW 0x6D (instant wake) [bAT] Dell Vostro 15xx Rename B0D3 to HDAU Audio Layout 3 NullEthernet Patch 5) Recompile back to *.aml iasl -ve *.dsl 6) Copy the patched files to /EFI/Clover/ACPI/Patched Add the names to the SSDT SortedOrder, enable DropOEM of Config file Hope that's enough info for you to get started.
