Use the USB you have working on your previous build for the installation. You should skip the EDP part. Bootpack was tweaked.

Reset your Bios to 'Load defaults'. Hit Apply and the set Sata Operations to AHCI. Leave the rest as is. 

No need to disable the bluetooth, just hit the space bar when you encounter that during boot up.

Try Brightness Slider app.

I don't own this model but I don't think there will be an issue upgrading or clean install. A few things you'll need to do prior:

• Upgrade Clover to latest version v3320
• Update the Config file to include SIP Disabling
• Backup just in case

See my El capitan guide. You can use the E6230 or E6430 Config file and kexts depending on your system's display resolution. Keep your DSDT and SSDT.

Patch and kext only work on the Intel HD graphics...are you using the nVidia graphics?

Save the generated SSDT.aml to /Extra replacing the file there.

 

Launch console from 'Spotlight Search'. From there, select System log. Do a search for 'Wake Reason'. That may determine what is causing the sleep interruption.

You are not using the Clover files from my guide on post #2. It doesn't include lspcidrv.kext, or you have some additional kexts added beside VoodooSDHC.

The files included an USB injector for El Capitan.

https://github.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh

 

DSDT and SSDT are required for sleep to work. You might also have to set hibernate mode to 0

from the terminal, run

pmset -g

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0

The default is 3.

 

You can't have 2 PS2 controller running at the same, might cause conflict. With ApplePS2Controller, you won't get multitouch because it's just a generic kext for standard mouse. With VoodooPS2Controlloer, there are a few branches. They are for SmartTouch, Alps, Synaptics, and Cypress that I know about. They all use the same name so you have to know where you got the source from. The branch you want if for Alps. You can try asking Ahmad from the Refined Alps touchpad thread if he could support the 105 german keyboard. His time is limited so hopefully he has time for you.

Generate your own SSDT.aml with ssdtprGen.sh, see if that fixes your sleep issue.

As for multitouch, you can have 2 finger scrolling with VoodooPS2Controller. See Ahmad's Refined Alps touchpad thread. On his last post, use SonVu2's version.

I can't take the credit. I know that upgrading to A13 will cause the artifacts. But once you upgraded, you can't just downgrade to A12. Artifacts will still occur.

 

A member discovered a way to reset it by going all the way back to A03, then you can upgrade to A12 without an issue. This had been confirmed to have fixed it by a few other members including myself.

Did you have a modded IOAHCIBlockStorage? If so, you'll need to restore the vanilla file.

​As for webcam, check to see if your USB ports are loaded correctly, check 'about this mac'.

Here's a compiled Version of the ALPS code by Son Vu (sontrg).

It doesn't have any of my fixes or updates yet. Only fixed the compile errors.

 

V5 users, please tell me if this works.

 

Jake Lo, please give this a try too.

 

If this works, I'll be gradually updating it to Linux 4.2, carefully documenting my changes to avoid breaking things like I did before.

 

Edit: SonVu2 has an extra device id for V5 (they have multiple device ids). Thats the only difference from the last build. Please try this instead.

 

Tested on

V3 id E7=0x73 0x03 0x0a, EC=0x88 0x08 0x1d (E6430/E6230/Exx30) 

- On Mavericks. No side scrolling

- 2 fingers scrolling, but with wide gap between fore and middle fingers

- tab and drag is glitchy, hard to get it to drag

 

V3 id E7=0x73 0x03 0x0a, EC=0x88 0x08 0x22 (E7440)

Tested on El Capitan 10.11.1.

- Right click with 2 finger tab - glitchy

- Tab and drag works same as above

- No side scrolling

- No inertia

Sorry, I was mistaken you are talking about boot glitch. Yes, that won't solve the artifacts issue. Did you downgrade your BIOS previously? That won't work.

 

What you need to do is go to Dell support site. Download BIOS A03 and A12. Install A03, reboot and then install A12. Once done, check the bios, set to 'Load Defaults. Apply and then go to SATA Operations and set it to AHCI.

Don't forget to install the boot screen  patch kext IOGraphicsFamily.kext from the middle of the guide. 

Try this

DSDT.aml.zip

Try repairing your cache again. Webcam should work. SD Carder, you'll need VoodooSDHC.kext and change the vendor/Product ID to match the device on your system. Do a search here for E6410 / E6420 SD Card reader for more info.

Try this 

morpheosman.zip

What smbios are you using. Try MBA6,2

Upload your DSDT and config, I'll take a look.

You need ACPIBatteryManager.kext v 1.53 or higher

That's correct. 

Plug in headphone, put system to sleep, then wake it up. Audio should be higher then, but once you unplug, you'll have to do the same process again.

Launch DSDT.aml with Maciasl. Set the preference to ACPI 4.0. Close and relaunch DSDT.aml. Click on Patch, paste the above code in the window and click on Apply.

For Clover, make sure NewWay and FixRegions are disabled. They tend to cause battery status with an 'X' for this model.

For DW1520 to work, you need to use SMBIOS MBA5,2 or 5,1, El Capitan has whitelisted it. 

Try booting without cache, hit space bar when you see the clover GUI, select no cache. Then reboot again in normal mode.

The patch only fix a 90% of the glitch, not 100%.

Make sure you have the node-id set correctly in the info.plist for your device. If that still fails, change 'Fix Type' to 3.

Unfortunately it's not supported
