What does the KP show? -

What are those hardware specs? There's a good chance the LAN card will be the same as that fitted to the E6x20 so try the AppleIntel1000e kext (it's available in all E6x20/E-x30/E6x40 packs). For your Broadcom wireless card, check our non-exhaustive inventory here.

DW1530 is BCM43228, not just BCM4322 (e.g. DW1510, which works OOB). That chip is not supported; all details here. NB: a 802.11n 2.4GHz/5GHz card losing connections is typical of a need to split the 2 x networks and use dedicated SSIDs instead of a common one, i.e. one dedicated SSID for the 2.4GHz network and another dedicated SSID for the 5GHz network. This has solved issues for many people, though usually symptoms were experienced in OS X not Win. For Win10, there appears to be ample topics on the matter on the web... NB2: no need for double and triple post on a given matter. Thanks.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong with E6500 and OS X El Capitan
Hervé replied to mergesoft's topic in The Archive
Patching the DSDT in such a way is not sufficient; it needs to be accompanied by a USB injector kext where you define all your USB ports (according to the DSDT definitions or -better- IOReg) for your selected SMBIOS profile. You'll find an example in the pack of the D630 guide I linked above. It's explained in full details on Rehabman's repo.- 39 replies

I don't know what I'm doing wrong with E6500 and OS X El Capitan
Hervé replied to mergesoft's topic in The Archive
El Capitan appears to need a near-real 8Go (formatted), so most people will require a 16Go key. Did you partition your key GTP and format it OS X (journaled)?- 39 replies

I don't know what I'm doing wrong with E6500 and OS X El Capitan

Since Yosemite, one has to create the USB installer manually. Literally dozens of posts detailing the procedure everywhere. Look it up in the various Yosemite/El Capitan guides we have on this forum. Here for instance or the other threads of that same section. An "Extra" folder will indeed be mostly for reference although it is still used by Enoch Chameleon branch for DSDT, SSDT, boot plist , SMBIOS plist and kext injections. Useless for Clover. When you saw references to an EFI partition, it was probably for Clover, that's where the Clover files go, unlike Enoch. For FakeSMC, I recommend you use a recent version from Rehabman or Kozlek. For PS2 controller, use those kexts we've listed in the 10.11.4 update thread of the Mac OS X forum subsection. I highly recommend the VoodooPS2Controller rather than the ApplePS2Controller on our Dell Latitude laptops since they have Alps trackpads. You can't directly upgrade per se from Mavericks to Yos or El Capitan on a myHack installation; you have to re-install over it and replace your boot loader. It's easy enough to do. My reference to Mavericks was purely for the OP to reach success in installing OS X since he was not with Yos or EC through the manual way...- 39 replies

Try this patched DSDT for built-in audio. BOD3 (HDAU) of SSDT-7 not patched yet for HDMI audio... HDEF-patched_DSDT.aml.zip
-
For SMBIOS, target Haswell-based Mac models such as MBA6,2 or MBP11,1/11,2 or even MBP11,3/11,4/11,5.

Ok, well, be aware that your DW1705 wireless card is unsupported and will have to be replaced (or completed) by a supported device (1/2 mini-PCIe card or USB dongle). Look up this non-exhaustive list for guidance. Audio codec seems to be ALC3234. We can confirm that through the PCI id you would find in the device/driver information.
-
You can start by looking Dell's published specs/datasheet but you can also check the info provided in Windows device manager for instance. Or look up for the various Windows tools that exist today.
-
On paper, no issue with this Haswell/HD4400-based platform. For you wireless, please double check because that reference seems incorrect. You also need to identify other hardware elements such as audio (codec), LAN card, SD card reader, Bluetooth, etc.
-
Old & known problem, well documented on the Web. Afaik, Safari still no longer supports Netflix playback despite various ambiguous messages. Switch to another browser like Chrome.
-
Arf, who's gonna go through those 77pages? If you want to list kext loaded or not loaded, copy paste the sorted list from SysProfiler->Extensions, but not the above! Anyway, let's get this seen in its own dedicated thread. All those systems I tested and verified run Enoch by the way, not Clover...
-
Sounds like you need to activate KernelPm option to free-up the kernel-based CPU powzer management.
-
I can't explain the behaviour on your E7440 but Dr Hurt's VoodooPS2Controller certainly works on Titou2k4's E7440 so that's another model on which it appears kosher to me. Make sure you don't have duplicate controllers lying around in your EFI partition, /S/L/E, /L/E.
-
Your laptop may display more info in the BIOS setup pages; failing that, assuming the PC came pre-installed with Windows, you should be able to identify exact hardware or at least hardware pci vendor + device ids through the Device Manager. Look up the device driver info. Re: iGPU vs. discrete GPU, well... isn't the answer obvious?
-
I specifically advised you NOT to use the kexts of the HWSensors dmg, the tuned FakeSMC I previously provided covered for that. Am I wasting my time with you here? You seem to systematically do differently than advised... HWmonitor: again, please read my previous posts. Bluetooth: Finder's bar icon or PrefPane is the same in terms of turning BT off and on. On looking at your patch, I can clearly see that you did not follow the guide I referred to... You should suss it all out on your own now, good luck.

Latitude E6430s: trouble booting to 10.11.4 El Capitan installer
Hervé replied to bnichols024's topic in The Archive
When you get this type of error repeat last 2 commands (touch + kextcache) or run: sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel -
https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/8959-m6300-el-capitan-install/page-2&do=findComment&comment=59600 You already have the newer and fully tuned FakeSMC v6.13.1363 in the pack I provided. You're supposed to install those (3x) kexts I uploaded in your /E/E folder. The other files too of course. Check CPU speedsptep + GPU throttling with HWMonitor, that's what it's used for! See here for illustration. What about Bluetooth? You said it now worked... DW360 works OOB, no kexts required other than a patch of the Broadcom transport kext if you want to be able to turn BT off/on from the Finder's bar icon. It's all explained in the Bluetooth related thread that you'll find in the R&D->Hardware->Bluetooth forum sub-section. So... does it work or not? Try the following revised DSDT + USB injector kext for USB ports. DSDT_new2.aml.zip USB_Injector2.kext.zip
-
As long as you replace your old FakeSMC v4.0 with the newer tuned version v6.13.1363, all you need to do is copy the HWmonitor app from the dmg to your Applications folder from where you can run it. Ignore the kexts of the HWSensors dmg. You can go to HWMonitor app preferences menu and adjust icons and info displayed in the Finder's bar. Do you see CPU + GPU throttling at all? Re: battery, try a more recent Rehabman's ACPI battery manager kext like latest v1.60.5 as opposed to your older v1.50.

The BCM5722D kext does not support the Broadcom BCM5756M card by default... It must be patched with the card's id.

Try the attached files. Package contains: revised patched DSDT (fixed EHCx devices + AGP.VID device_type & model (it's FX 1600M, not FX 360M) and modded LAN & WLAN devices) USB injector kext tuned FakeSMC v6.13.1363 (with MBP5,1 SMC keys + nVidia FX 1600M (10de:040d) AGPM tuning) latest BCM5722D v2.3.6 (with added BCM5756M id 14e4:1674) revised Chameleon boot plist revised SMBIOS plist (MBP5,1 profile) kernel.plist (for Enoch boot parameters) M6300_tuning.zip Install Kozlek's HWMonitor app to monitor CPU speedstep +GPU throttling. Once you're happy with the settings, you can copy (not move) all kexts to /L/E, repair permissions, rebuild cache and set KernelBooter_kexts parameter to No in /Extra/kernel.plist. System will then boot a little quicker. If you still don't have all your USB ports after installing those files, we'll modify the devices to EH01/EH02 in the DSDT + USB injector.
