No, you just have to make sure you've disabled hibernation. The process is detailed in existing E6x30 guides.

You should just read again that thread you found or do another search with the essential part of the title you used for this thread.

Well I suggest you read post #11 above and the guide(s) you got the kext from... starting with mines...

You'll find it in the boot pack posted in all recent or fairly recent guides for E6x30 laptops.

You can use the Forum Search facility for a start. To give you a hint, no Ethernet interface (and as en0)= no AppStore.

Guys, please pretty please (with sugar on it), read the Dr Hurt's VoodooPS2Controller thread. It's all in post #1. That'll save us having that same TrackPad/TouchPad PrefPane question being asked on and on.

Well... it's already set to 12 in the DSDT. So, all you're left to check now is the presence if the IDT 92HD93 kext in /L/E, install it if missing then repair permissions and rebuild your cache.

As I thought, your IOGraphicsFamily patch is the obsolete version for Yosemite. Modify it as detailed above. You should also choose where you place your Clover injected kexts: EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.12 or EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other. I don't think you should have kexts in both, to avoid confusion if nothing else... Afaik, the E6430s does not have any discrete graphics card, only the integrated HD4000. As such, the nv_disable=1 boot parameter is not necessary, though it won't do any harm.

Did you verify the HDEF layout-id? 'should be set to 12 (0x0C) afaik. You may also want to select AppleRTC patch. Could save a little slowness after reboot on BIOS POST completion. But it remains reasonably quick on the E6xxx series compared to the older D series.

I think you've got an obsolete IOGraphicsFamily patch in your config.plist. I did ask your EFI folder, but... The IOGraphicsFamily patch for Sierra is: Find: 0100007525 Replace by: 010000EB25

As long as it works for you...

You're gonna have to post a picture of your KP or tell us what it says... If you use Clover, make sure to select AsusAICPUPM or you'll get KP on CPU power management. That's mandatory on all Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge laptops. If you re-use the Clover config.plist from a previous version, the existing set of binary patches may also be the source of the KP. It'd be a good idea to post your complete EFI folder.

That doesn't work either; I've tried adding the "compatible" statement in DSDT ARPT device or adding the "pci14e4,4311" id to the AirportBrcm4331 kext; 'makes no difference whatsoever. Apple definitely dropped support for those old Broadcom cards in Sierra.

Yup. Above patch is obsolete for Sierra and patched El Capitan AppleHDA will not work under Sierra. For VoodooPS2Controller, you're now supposed to use Dr Hurt's version; I recommend Release 4 on the E6xxx series and it's available in Dr Hurt's thread in R&D section or in my recent E6220/E6230 Sierra guides. For audio, the correct AppleHDA patch for IDT 92HD93 is: Find: 8419D411 Replace by: 00000000 Find: 8A19D411 Replace by: 00000000 Find: 8B19D411 Replace by: DF761D11 There are no instances of 8319D411 in Sierra's AppleHDA. The patched kext must go to /S/L/E; the IDT definition kext can go to /L/E. Repair permissions and rebuilt cache after your kexts modifications.

Yes and with EC 10.11.6's version but it does not work either. Best thing to do will be to replace the DW1390 by a supported full size card such as the AR5B91 or a supported 1/2-size card+bracket like the DW1510 for instance.

Laptops can only be woken through lid opening, PWR button or, if set in BIOS, network activity or USB. Desktops can be woken through PWR button or, if set in BIOS, network activity or USB. But sheer keyboard or Touchpad action won't wake a Hackintosh afaik.

Remove the AppleACPIPlatform + VoodooSDHC kexts, they're not needed and will cause harm. If you use the patched AICPUPM kext, you can also put NullCPUPM aside (keep it somewhere but don't use it). You should not need the GenericUSBXHCI kext for USB3.0. the USB3.0 port of my E6230 works OOB with the right DSDT settings. You should use only one battery manager, so you must choose between AppleSmartBatteryManager and ACPIBatteryManager. I recommend you use Dr Hurt's latest kext Release R4. Remove Patched_10.7_AppleRTC kext, it's obviously not applicable to Sierra. There a thread about this in the Support->Apple OS X folder. Patched AppleHDA.kext will only load from /S/L/E so...

Still had a DW1390 in the D630i. 'been a long since I last played with it and I can confirm that it last works OOB in El Capitan. I experience the same as you when I boot Sierra with the DW1390 in my D630n. One has to assume that support for that old Broadcom chip has been dropped... There certainly ain't no AppleAirportBrcm43224 kext any more as PlugIn of IO80211Family kext in Sierra.

I guess you meant IvyBridge CPU i7-3630QM... Using Clover Configurator tool, try and modify your Clover config.plist as follows: In Graphics tab try layout-id 0x01660003 as opposed to 0x01660004 set DualLink to 1 In Kernel and Kext Patches tab uncheck KernellPm, it's not applicable to IvyBridge platform. You only need AsusAICPUPM for CPU power management. change 8319D411 to 8A19D411 in the 1st entry for AppleHDA patching, still replacing it by 00000000. 8319D411 is not present in the Sierra version of AppleHDA. for IOGraphicsFamily patch (to avoid boot screen glitches), the binary mod should be to replace 0100007525 by 010000EB25 (the replacement you have is for older OS X versions such as Yosemite). You'll have to create your own CPU-specific SSDT with the generator script you've strangely placed in EFI/CLOVER/APCI/patched folder. Normally, the script downloads to home directory from which you can run it. It's the resulting CPU power management-related SSDT that goes alongside the patched DSDT.

It's obviously similar specs to the regular E6x30 Series. Afaik, the E6430s is an ultra-portable version (i.e. a little smaller) of the E6430. Why don't you post the /Extra folder you've used? With Chameleon or Enoch, I recommend you stick to legacy BIOS mode. VGA won't work (no support for it under HD4000 graphics) but HDMI will with the usual Capri FrameBuffer patch. HD4000 should work OOB as long as you inject the correct Capri FB #3/layout-id 0x01660003. This is usually done through DSDT patching of the iGPU device defined at address 0x00020000. BIOS would normally display the exact type of audio chip fitted to the laptop. Look up in System Information page. On the E6x30 Series, it's usually IDT 92HD93 for which the AppleHDA patch details are fully known and available. You can easily double check the codec with DPCIManager app. Audio will be listed as Intel HDA (8086:1e20) with IDT 92HD93 codec (111d:76df). You'd normally inject audio layout-id 12, again through DSDT patching. If your laptop runs the latest BIOS version, you'll probably have to revert to an older one to avoid graphics corruption with HD4000 like on the other E6x30 models. You do not need Windows for that, just make a bootable USB disk with UnetBootin from which you'll simply run the BIOS exec downloaded off Dell Web site. The downgrade process normally requires to 1st revert to the oldest possible version like A01/A02/A03 before upgrading to the last known version with which graphics are Ok (often A11 or A12). If you can post your extracted/raw DSDT, we can certainly patch it for you.

Specs? Installation method? Boot pack used?

What is expected from you is that you make the summary of your system's hardware specs. Eg: BIOS: 1.3.5 Chipset: Intel 110 Skylake PCH-H (100 Series/C230) CPU: Intel quad-core Skylake i5-6500 @3.2GHz (Turbo boost to 3.6GHz) Graphics: Intel HD 530 (Skylake-S GT2, 8086:1912) RAM: 8GB DDR3-1600 Storage: SATA III 128GB SSD Audio: Intel HDA based on Realtek ALC255 codec (10EC:0255) LAN: RealTek RTL8168/8111 Gigabit Ethernet (10EC:8168) Wireless: ? Bluetooth: ? SD card reader: ? USB: 4 x USB2.0/ 4 x USB3.0 ports

Please specify: system's hardware specs bootloader used bootloader parameters (post compressed EFI folder if Clover and compressed Extra folder if Enoch)

Add-on kexts are better placed in /Library/Extensions from where they can be cached, as opposed to EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.12 (or EFI/CLOVER/kexts/other) from where they are injected at boot time. For patched AppleHDA (IDT 92HD90), you may want to opt for Clover on-the-fly Sierra patches which are OS X updates resilient. Find: 8419D411 Replace by: 00000000 Find: 8A19D411 Replace by: 00000000 Find: 8B19D411 Replace by: E7761D11 Your Clover config actually includes on-the-fly patches for AppleHDA whilst, at the same time, you use a pre-patched kext to replace the vanilla one. You should be using either/or but not both. On-the-fly patches will clearly have no effect on a pre-patched kext. For 2nd/final stage boot glitch fix, you've also kept an obsolete on-the-fly patch for IOGraphicsFamily. For Sierra, the patch should be: Find : 0100007525 Replace : 01000EB25 I think your Clover Config.plist is Jake's version from his Latitude/Inspiron/Precision El Capitan Clover guide.

Yes. And don't forget to check your DSDT HDEF device.
