Are you using the single link or dual link options? I think your resolution is single link. Also have you tried the 10.11.6 kexts from here http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/208-1st-gen-intel-hd-graphics-kexts/

i guess you would have to figure out if your LCD is connected internally by an LVDS or eDP connector if it is eDP it is not supported by OS X. you can also try connecting an external display to see if that responds.

Do you have a EFI on the root of your OS maybe clover is reading the config from there or another volume with an EFI folder.

Try logging into iCloud sometimes it helps activate those features

Sometimes logging into icloud helps with activating hotspot/airdrop

can you set a efi boot path from bios config?

have you checked Darkvoids thread over at insanely mac i posted some info there.

Could be the method used to patch for lid in dsdt. Some patches remove _PRW which can cause that.

Well you can always swap over the tidbits you liked from the first d830 to the new one.

You can enable the volume change fix in voodoohda plist

no select key just space bar. then select "boot without caches" option and hit enter

any way to reset your mobo like smc reset or a power reset? maybe something is screwed in firmware memory?

you can try booting without caches at clover prompt. hit space bar and select. if after install you have not transferred the clover EFI files to your HDD EFI partition that can also happen.

idk but that red ghosting in verbose mode looks like when a gpu is failing. hope thats not your case.

i tested the dw1550 bt on another machine that had the usb headers on the pci-e slot and all i needed was dinesh's BT firmware uploader from this forum to get it working. i did not use rehabmans kexts /methodes

wow leppys guide... what a blast from the past! if you used myhack or edp at some point then you might have double kexts installed especially if there in your extra folder and in s/l/e the hpets issue is not a real issue it just looks scary.

for ethernet you can try mausiEthernet and audio voodoohda you will probably need to edit the kexts info plist to turn on some fixes in it.

Oh. Shit I guess I forgot to mention I'm on UEFI lol damn sorry I saw you mention clover and figured it was UEFI.... My bad. I will post the structure and the efi files maybe they will work for you in uefi mode I used an alias shortcut for bootmgfw.efi so that when you update clover it uses whats in clovers Boot folder. I thinned it down a lot as it did not fit but the windows 10 Microsoft folder is intact and so are the clover binary's, it is current trunk 3579 hope it boots for you. Obviously you will need to add the missing clover folder entries with yours. Test to see if windows will now boot UEFI with my files. EFI.zip

I had a similar issue. My bios would only load a boot loader from EFI/Microsoft/Boot so I had to put clover BOOTX64.efi in there and rename it to bootmgfw.efi but I also had an existing windows 10 install so I had to rename bootmgfw.efi that was there to bootmgfw-orig.efi for my windows to work with clover. If you don't have windows installed already you can make the folder paths and try.

Is AHCI enabled in Sata options in bios?

I got preference pane working in sierra you need 10.11.x prefpane and replace the Mac OS binary and version.plist with sierra ones. Remove the sierra trackpad preference pane from System/Library/Preferancepanes and replace it with the modified one. Enjoy.

ahh the BT. yeah i have not tried using the bt on the DW1550 card my laptop does not have the usb header pins on the motherboard to enable the module. have you tried dineshes BT firmware uploader kext its on this forum.

what is it not detecting the 5 ghz band?

use clover configurator app and in smbios section you can add your ram details.
