Try and re-generate a USBPorts kext with Hackintool app.

New bootpack with revised DSDT to include support for keyboard brightness keys Fn-UP/Fn-DOWN.

Tried without this HibernationFixup and/or without the CPUFriend kexts?

Firmware v4689, right? How does Bluetooth work after Sleep & Wake?

Then I suggest you generate your own USBPorts kext with Hackintool app. You can Google for it and download it.

I guess it's time to verify the config I posted in my Clover pack... I certainly have that option enabled on my 7490 and the model name is indeed not truncated.

Try the 7490 on its own, without being connected to the Dock.

On your HDD (or SSD), what's in /Library/Extensions folder ?

Explain in details what you did with kexts. Are you injecting them through Clover or caching them from /L/E? If you're caching them from /L/E, you obviously have to repair permissions and rebuilt your kext cache...

No, not since Mojave. Conversion is automatic. Only APFS is officially supported for macOS installation. If you want to install on an MBR partitioned disk or on an HFS+ partition, you have to use special tricks/special installation method and that's a little complex unless you're an advanced Hackintosher. So, it's best that newbies avoid this...

Re: SysProfiler info, you posted a screenshot of no use... So, please, open up System Information and do "File->Save As". That's what a saved output is. This being said, I'm not seeing your Webcam in IOReg which is not normal if it's enabled in BIOS. Hanging off RP05@1C,4 PCIe root device, I see the Realtek USB audio + Gigabit Ethernet of the Dock you're connected to but, hanging off built-in USB3 root device XHC@14, I only some of your USB devices: a USB dongle, presumably for a wireless mouse the BT module of your DW1820A card the Broadcom security chip This is probably due to the fact that your USB ports are not all properly injected/detected as reflected in IOPReg. For instance, there's no HS01 port and no USRx port. This problem can only result from an incorrect USB port injector. Looking at my original Clover pack, I realise I had posted it with good old Rehabman's USBInjectAll kext. Remove it and replace it by the attached USBPorts kext (generated through Hackintool app) which fully injects the definitions required for all the 7490 USB ports. You should then see this in IOReg and your webcam should be listed in System Information->Hardware->USB: Please confirm behaviour after replacing USBInjectAll by the attached USBPorts kext so that I may update the pack I posted in my 7490 guide. 7490_USBPorts.kext.zip

Firmware also get reloaded on wake. And systematically so. For instance if your DW1820A runs on, say, firmware v4689 in Windows but you use Rehabman's latest kexts without any mod, you'd retain v4689 registered in macOS on a warm reboot from Windows but you'd get v5799 on waking the Hackintosh from sleep. Ideally, whatever firmware is used under Windows should also be used by Rehabman's firmware patching kexts. Now, the trick is to find out which firmware version works best under macOS...

Whereas device PNLF is included inside my E6230's patched DSDT.

Check if you have the BIOS option for BIOS downgrade; if you do, you'd need to allow downgrades.

@Eiskalt71, please make sure to post in the correct forum section. The Guides section is not for support! It's quite clearly indicated... The CPU has got nothing to do with the Webcam. Check that the camera fitted to your 7490 is the same as the model fitted to mine (compare the PCI ids). The Webcam is USB-internal and should work OOB as long as you have the USB ports setup properly (and you should with the pack I posted). If it's a different webcam model, it may not be supported dat all. Please post an IOReg output (taken from IORegistryExplorer app) and a saved output from SysProfiler (i.e. from About This Mac->System Information). Also check that your Webcam is not disabled in BIOS...

You'll have to post the DSDT patched by Jake and the A21 DSDT.

I would not recommend you use a patched E6230 DSDT on your E6330, no. Whilst this may not be the cause of your problem, it may lead to some hardware being unsupported even though there is little chance since the 2 x models are extremely close. You issue of booting to a black scree and sleep is more likely due to an incorrect CPU power management SSDT. Did you generate yours or, since you have the same CPU as I do now in my E6230, use the SSDT I posted in my pack?

The firmware only applies to the Bluetooth module of the card, not the wifi part. On p10 (2nd post from the top), @astray provided a link to the Windows driver that updates BT firmware to v4689. You can use this safely to update the card. Then, you may use the following patching kexts in macOS. All this works for me but the card already worked well when showing firmware version v5799 or v5803 (see posts on p5 to p7).

Graphics corruption is in fact due to Capri Framebuffer's layout 0x01660003 having a default memory size set at 16MB. Patching this down to 8MB solves the graphics corruption issue with all BIOS versions post A11. Patch is detailed in my E6230 guide.

@milchkuh There you are:

In such cases and in order to avoid CPU power management-related kernel panics (KP), NullCPUPowerManagement kext is recommended to be used temporarily until the CPU-specific SSDT is generated. The kext just needs to be added to /Library/Extensions followed by permissions repair/cache rebuild. - - - - - - - - - - Edit #1: 17 Aug 2019 Revised bootpack #2: repatched DSDT (from freshly extracted A14 BIOS) and added support for Fn-UP/Fn-DOWN brightness keys Hackintool-generated USBPorts kext to replace USBInjectall Edit #2: 16 May 2021 Added a note about installing Clover on target High Sierra partition according to BIOS mode (legacy vs. UEFI)

I'll try and grab my E6220 off my daughter and see if I can make a fresh Clover-based HiSie installation. It's still running with Enoch, though installation and updates were all made with Clover. I'll then post the Clover EFI folder.

Maybe you should try the pin masking...

It's easy to confuse some of the older Latitude E7xxx series with the newer Latitude 7xxx Series. There is added confusion when you realise that last E-Series E7470 sold alongside a sister model labelled 7470 within the E-Series (like a few other Exx50/xx50 models). E7450 is 5th gen Broadwell (HD 5500 or nVidia GeForce 840M); this is getting older now... E7470/7470 is 6th gen Skylake (HD 520) 7480 is generally Kaby Lake (HD 620/HD 640) but also sold as 6th gen Skylake (HD 520) 7490 is 7th gen Kaby Lake (HD Graphics 620)/ 8th gen Kaby Lake R (UHD Graphics 620) We have guides for all those models. Provided the 7480 model you were offered is Kaby Lake, it'll be a better machine than a Skylake 7470/E7470. If you go for a Broadwell E7450, go for a model without the nVidia graphics.

For Snow Leopard, you're supposed to use myHack v3.1.2, not v3.3.1 (which has a bug for SL)... It's clearly stated here.
