The card can only get listed in the SysProfiler if the specs/info are injected properly (eg: DSDT patch or Clover device properties injection).
-
WWAN modules are USB-based. Until you get all your ports working, including the internal ones, nothing you could try to get the WWAN working will succeed. Once you see the module listed under SysProfiler->USB, you'll know it's detected and available for tuning. Consult the existing E7470 guides/threads/posts to get all your USB ports working.

It was all explained here:

If you experience KP, there's a high chance that you've reverted to an older wireless kext from Yosemite. It's actually a bad idea and, given the impact, it is simply not sustainable. If you cannot get your DW1820A to work, demand to return it to the seller especially as the MAC@ does not match the label... It's a fake OVW3T3.

[SOLVED] Dell Latitude E6540 audio jack issues
Hervé replied to appletechgeek's topic in The Archive
It would seem you still haven't installed CodecCommander, so... once you add it, things may begin to work properly... -
Why don't you remove the BrcmAirportFix kext + Clover associated options ? You could also try to declare compatibility with 14e4,4353 instead of 14e4,4331 though it really does the same. Post your debug package.
-
You're confusing things and are mistaken re: PCI ids. You need to read my guides with more attention (especially the 1st post). In a nutshell, the intel audio device is the controller and Realtek is the audio codec. When I said "add-on kexts", I meant all the kexts you use for your Hackintosh, those provided in the bootpack.
-
Check that the Wifi card is listed in Network PrefPane. If it's not, try and add it manually.
-
If you've not done it, install the add-on kexts in /L/E, repair permissions and rebuild your cache.
-
None whatsoever; if you've installed the kexts + config I provided, all should work. The only thing to note with audio is that, sometimes, after waking the laptop, audio is corrupted. It takes a new sleep/wake to recover.

Precision M6800: USB of combo eSATA/USB port not working
Hervé replied to ugooh's topic in The Archive
'means you need to adjust the USB port definitions and/or settings. You can use the patcher tool to create the appropriate USBPort kext. Did you try rehabman's USBInjectAll at all? -
If the module is not detected, then you have a problem at USB level; you need to make sure all your ports, including the internal ones are fully enabled; you'll then see the module listed under the USB section of System Information (SysProfiler).

Very weird. I installed Mojave on my M.2 SATA SSD after reducing the Win10 partition it came installed with. I had no issue whatsoever in installing Mojave on the recovered disk space once I booted my Mojave USB installer. My SSD partitioning arrangement now looks like this (Win10 + Mojave + Catalina): Last login: Sun Aug 4 03:03:52 on ttys000 lat-7490:~ admin$ diskutil list /dev/disk0 (internal, physical): #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: GUID_partition_scheme *512.1 GB disk0 1: EFI BOOT 523.2 MB disk0s1 2: Microsoft Reserved 134.2 MB disk0s2 3: Microsoft Basic Data Windows 399.0 GB disk0s3 4: Apple_APFS Container disk2 81.8 GB disk0s4 5: Apple_APFS Container disk1 30.7 GB disk0s5 /dev/disk1 (synthesized): #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: APFS Container Scheme - +30.7 GB disk1 Physical Store disk0s5 1: APFS Volume Catalina - Data 5.8 GB disk1s1 2: APFS Volume Preboot 77.6 MB disk1s2 3: APFS Volume Recovery 520.4 MB disk1s3 4: APFS Volume VM 1.1 GB disk1s4 5: APFS Volume Catalina 10.1 GB disk1s5 /dev/disk2 (synthesized): #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: APFS Container Scheme - +81.8 GB disk2 Physical Store disk0s4 1: APFS Volume Mojave 47.0 GB disk2s1 2: APFS Volume Preboot 45.5 MB disk2s2 3: APFS Volume Recovery 510.3 MB disk2s3 4: APFS Volume VM 20.5 KB disk2s4 lat-7490:~ admin$

Precision M6800: USB of combo eSATA/USB port not working
Hervé replied to ugooh's topic in The Archive
Just to be clear on the matter, it's the USB aspect of this combo port you're inquiring about, not the eSATA? right? -
'doubt it but maybe you're doing it wrong. Say you install Windows on a single partition on the SSD, you can then reduce that partition from Windows and create a new partition in the freed space. You may then format that partition FAT or NTFS. You may then boot your Mojave installer USB key and, once at the main screen, open up Disk Utility to reformat that 2nd empty partition HFS+ or APFS. You should then be able to install Mojave on that freshly reformatted partition. Make sure that, from the onset, you partition your disk using a GPT/GUID scheme, not MBR.

That's not supported on those Dell laptops, not even in Windows. You can set Wake from USB in BIOS to wake laptops from an external USB keyboard/mouse but that only works when laptops run on mains.
-
That's wrong! Latitude E6x20 cannot be booted with BIOS set to UEFI mode, only Legacy mode. Set it back to Legacy if it's set to UEFI mode and, again, install Clover with the settings specified in JakeLo generic guide. Please follow the instructions provided in our guides, they're detailed for good reasons... If necessary, I've also listed the Clover settings I used for legacy mode in my Vostro200 Mojave guide and they should work for your E6420.

Last updated: 14 Nov 2020 Restoring support for dropped GPUs in macOS Mojave and Catalina 1) All Mojave and Catalina versions: Here are copies of the requires kexts and files required to gain graphics acceleration on 1st gen Intel HD + Sandy Bridge (SNB) HD3000 + nVidia Tesla GPUs in Mojave and Catalina up to 10.15.3. For Catalina 10.15.4 and later, use dosdude1's patcher. As described initially at MacRumors in the "Mojave on unsupported Mac" thread back in summer 2018: 1a) Intel 1st gen Intel HD and HD3000 drivers are non-existant in Mojave by default, so copy 10.13.6's kexts to /S/L/E, repair permissions and rebuild your cache. 10.13.6_1st_gen_Intel_HD_kexts.zip 10.13.6_SNB_kexts.zip 1b) Mojave natively includes drivers for nVidia Fermi and Kepler cards only. Copy the following kexts to /S/L/E, repair permissions and rebuild your cache. Tesla_kexts_for_Mojave.zip Tesla_kexts_for_Catalina.zip 2) Mojave 10.14.4/5/6 and Catalina 10.15(.0)/1/2/3: Remove the following vanilla frameworks and replace them by 10.14.3's versions. This should be done after booting in single-user mode, having previously copied those frameworks in a dedicated folder at volume/partition root. in /S/L/Frameworks: CoreDisplay + OpenGL 10.14.3_Frameworks.zip in /S/L/PrivateFrameworks: GPUSupport + SkyLight 10.14.3_PrivateFrameworks.zip 3) Catalina 10.15.4 and later The above process is no longer applicable due to significant changes in macOS. Instead, it has become mandatory to call on dosdude1's Catalina patcher to patch Catalina and get the above unsupported GPUs working again. NB: The process of reverting to older frameworks or patching Catalina needs to be repeated after/at each macOS update.

E5540 - Mojave - video, microphone and AppStore issues
Hervé replied to Alcyone's topic in The Archive
Try this revised Clover config instead of the current one you use; seems you got your knickers in a twist on the CPU power management & SMBIOS/serial numbers front... You should also get rid of FakePCIID_Intel_HD_Graphics kext since Lilu + WEG take care of your graphics. config.plist.zip I suggest you call it "config2.plist" and place it alongside your existing file, then manually call it from Clover main menu at startup to test. -
[SOLVED] Dell Latitude E6540 audio jack issues
Hervé replied to appletechgeek's topic in The Archive
Regarding audio, you failed to state that your Clover config still included old AppleHDA patches. Those should be disabled/removed if you use AppleALC since that requires full vanilla AppleHDA... For the rest, you probably need to update Clover and review the modules you chose to install. -
[SOLVED] Dell Latitude E6540 audio jack issues
Hervé replied to appletechgeek's topic in The Archive
You're using some outdated kexts: FakePCIID, Shiki, etc. Make sure you: remove old versions of Lilu + Shiki remove those old FakePCIID kexts (they're superseded by Lilu + WEG kexts) remove those graphics DVMT and/or FixUp kexts, they're not required afaik use latest Lilu + WhatEverGreen + AppleALC kexts (available off well-known Github repo) -

You need to remove VoodooHDA kext + AppleHDADisabler, otherwise, no audio.... -
[SOLVED] Dell Latitude E6540 audio jack issues
Hervé replied to appletechgeek's topic in The Archive
Sigh... Why don't you specify the layout in the correct and dedicated section/part of your Clover config using Clover Configurator app? And, before you report it: you won't have audio if you reboot from Windows into macOS (proceed with a cold boot) you may lose audio on some occasions (like plugging/unplugging headphones) in which case just put laptop to sleep and wake it. You'll need to have CodecCommander kext installed alongside AppleALC of course. These things been mentioned many times before so don't hesitate to use for forum Search facility before posting (it's at the top of the forum window). -
Building on the info provided by @jpz4085 all those months ago, I've patched the Latitude 7490 DSDT in order to remap brightness control to Fn-F11 and Fn-F12 keys (by default, it's Fn-F6 / Fn-b). ACPI debugging confirmed that Fn-F11 and Fn-F12 controls are handled by Embedded Controller (EC) EV5 event. This was hinted by presence of call to IGPU.BRT6 method under EV5 Method in the DSDT: Method (EV5, 2, NotSerialized) { \_SB.PCI0.IGPU.BRT6 (Arg0, Arg1) } BRT6 Method showed the usual default LCD notifications: Method (BRT6, 2, NotSerialized) { If (LEqual (Arg0, One)) { Notify (LCD, 0x86) } If (And (Arg0, 0x02)) { Notify (LCD, 0x87) } } The required DSDT patch is quite simple and as follows: 1) inject Darwin in PCI0._INI Method: Scope (_SB.PCI0) { [...] [...] [...] Method (_INI, 0, Serialized) // _INI: Initialize { [...] [...] If (CondRefOf (\_OSI)) { [...] [...] [...] If (LOr (_OSI ("Darwin"), _OSI ("Windows 2009"))) // Darwin OS injection { Store (0x07D9, OSYS) } [...] [...] [...] } } 2) check for Darwin in OSID Method: Scope (_SB) { [...] [...] Method (OSID, 0, NotSerialized) { If (LEqual (ACOS, Zero)) { [...] [...] If (CondRefOf (\_OSI, Local0)) { [...] [...] [...] If (LOr (_OSI ("Darwin"), _OSI (WIN7))) // Darwin OS check { Store (0x80, ACOS) } [...] [...] [...] } Else { [...] [...] [...] } } [...] } 3) modify notifications under BRT6 Method: Method (BRT6, 2, NotSerialized) { If (LEqual (Arg0, One)) { Notify (LCD, 0x86) Notify (^^LPCB.PS2K, 0x0366) // Fn-F12 = Brightness up } If (And (Arg0, 0x02)) { Notify (LCD, 0x85) Notify (^^LPCB.PS2K, 0x0365) // Fn-F11 = Brightness down } } Patched DSDT available in the Clover pack posted above.

HDMI not working on Dell Latitude E5440 running 10.14.6
Hervé replied to DerNuntius's topic in The Archive
You need to implement the required HDMI patches to your Azul framebuffer kext. All was explained several years ago in our 4th gen/Haswell graphics patching guide. It's available in our R&D->Graphics forum subsection. You can implement the patches through Clover on-the-fly patching facility.
