  1. I can confirm the script by Leon in post #1 still works in El Capitan, and most probably Sierra.

     

    However, it has to be in USB modem mode using 'Dialup' and APN as the number to dial-up (the first picture; but with error correction and compression unchecked).

     

    It will also connect in WWAN mode too (if CellPhoneHelper.kext has been patched for OS X to recognize the card as WWAN), but because there is no option to key in APN, Safari reports there is no network.

     

    I have a hard time getting my Dell 5530 card to work, either as USB modem or WWAN card using 'Generic' and '3G', the script works wonder, many thanks.

  2. To potatohead,

    Here's my D630 configuration process(attached). I have a question for you, when you said it didn't work for you, how did you tests the "sleep/wake" functionality?

     

    many thanks albert! :-) i test the sleep/wake functionality by sleeping it via ML's menu, the LCD went off, but both the power and bluetooth LED remain lighted - not sleeping; I couldnt wake it up, irregardless using keyboard or touchpad, only way is to force shtdown by long-pressing the power button.

     

    followed your attachment to the dot, also didnt work for me on both 411 and 415 (the only choice i made differently was the kexts for touchpad and keyboard, myHack's didnt work out well, I chose ANV-Slice [4] instead, I dont think this will cause the unable to restart/shutdown issue, do you?).

     

    looks like i may have done something wrong with my installation, will recreate the usb install disk, format and reinstall from scratch, keeping my fingers crossed.

     

    i used myhack 3.1.2 to create the 10.8 GM install disk, D630's bootpack in /Extra during installation and then install chameleon via myHack.app after installation before runing EDP to configure the D630 previously, are these the correct steps?

     

    any special setting i need to change or take note of in BIOS? (I am on A18).

     

    my HDD is divided into 2 partitions on MBR, the 1st partition has win7 x64 in it and the 2nd partition ML

     

    thanks!

  3. This kext (attached) works for me (D630-nvidia). Sleep/wake works!

    Use KextWizard to import it to E/E folder. Run myFix/Quick, reboot, voila "peanut-butter" sandwich.!:-)

     

    didnt work for me, pity.

     

    using EDP 411 D630 nvidia and D830 nvidia config, both restart / shutdown and sleep didnt work with the kext u attached.

     

    what is the config u used (together with the sleep kext attached) to get everything working?

     

    thkq :-)

  4. I meant to say run "./edptool.command" to load another configuration. But it seems that you just need to run myFix/Quick to reconfigure cache if that is what you are suspecting. I had the same failure with restart/shutdown, so I reconfigure(try another configurations to optimized your system (D630, D830 whatever system you have). in this forum, there is no proposed configuration for D630/D630/etc. system. We're still trying to figure it out. Sharing is important in the forum and if members don't share the best optimized system for D630/D630/etc. then those that are struggling will keep on 'hacking". There's no end. So, I hope members SHARE!.

     

    I am in the middle of testing I believe the best configuration for D630 but holding on till I have done extensive tests before I share them. I've found a kext for SleepEnabler.kext that works on my D630 so far, I will share later on. On my configuration/tests, graphics acceleration was not acceptable on this OS X ML GM; I will submit Xbench tests later. At the moment. keep the patience and keep on 'hacking" and then share.

     

    got it, thanks.

     

    weird thing is rebuilding cache does NOT ALWAYS work (90% of the times it works; still yet to find a trend), so running myFix (quick or full) is not a foolproof solution.

     

    so far I can confirm default config for d630 and d830 nvidia (without sleep) does not work properly on d630 nvidia.

     

    will continue to try and report back :-)

  5. Try another configuration, I have the same system D630 + nvidia. And run myFix/Full because it's another configuration (kext's).

     

    Thanks for the reply, can you elaborate on 'try another configuration'?

     

    I have tried doing away with nullcpumanagement and voodoopstate, changing ps2 kexts, all to no avail - are these 'trying another configuration'?

     

    From what I have observed, the unable to shutdown / restart problem seems to be kernel cache or cache in general related.

     

    In other words, if some actions are done prior to system shutting down or restarting that makes the system needing to rebuild cache, the system WILL shutdown or restart properly.

     

    :-)

  6. I am having restart / shutdown issues on my nvidia D630 running 10.8 GM and EDP 410.

     

    Used edp's recommended kexts (other than removing sleepenabler) / dsdt / smbios / boot.plist for D630 nvidia + modified io80211Family.kext for AR9285 wifi; all in /E/E. The version of Chameleon is the one that comes with myHack 3.1.2

     

    The only time I can get restart / shutdown to work properly is immediately after running myFix Full, any other time choosing restart / shutdown will just make the screen go blank, any attempt to press the on/off button will bring the screen back to life to the login screen. The only way to shutdown is to long press the on/off button to force the issue.

     

    I am running 10.8 on MBR partition with Win 7 dual boot, 2x2GB RAM.

     

    I have tried changing chameleon version, re-running EDP and myFix Full, all to no avail.

     

    I am at my wits end, any insights / inputs greatly appreciated.

     

    :-)
