Hi all,
After countless hours of work, I have an almost functional system.
My Dell 5490 specs are:
- Kabylake-R i7-8650
- Intel UHD620
- 16Gb RAM
- 512 SSD
- ALC256
- USB-C
- Intel Wifi
- I2C Trackpad
What works:
- Intel UHD620
- Battery Indicator
- Sound (speakers, microphone, headphones)
- Wifi (Had to remove Intel and installed a Broadcom one)
- Bluetooth
- Airdrop
- USBs, both A and C
- Webcam
- VGA
- HDMI (With no sound yet)
- Trackpad (touch click, gestures, no physical buttons yet. Acceleration is not as good as Magic Trackpad is)
What does not works:
- SD card reader (I don't use this)
- Mouse pointer, or nipple, or whatever its name is (I don't use it)
System Definition is MacBook Pro 15,2.
I need your help with:
- HDMI sound
- Trackpad buttons and acceleration.
- Any other refinement and inconsistency you see on my configuration.
THANKS!

It stays black, yes. If I push Fn+Insert, nothing happens.
It is not sleeping, as the power button is bright and the HDD led indicates the laptop is doing things.
Thanks a lot.

This is not a problem. The sound works!
The thing is that when I install clover and then I copy the CLOVER folder into the EFI folder inside EFI partition, the laptop does not boot.
If I boot from that USB with the EFI folder I attached, it boots.

After lots of testing, I am always stocked in the same thing.
I create a bootable USB with the EFI folder I attach, install Sierra. Everything works OOB (I replaced the wifi card) but sound, which I patch with the file I also attach. Great, everything is OK.
But whether I install Clover... Anything I do, the screen dims slowly to black if I try to boot it from Clover.
If I boot from the USB and select HDD, everything works.
Re: ALC292, check my E6440 Sierra guide for dummy ALC kext & AppleHDA patching instructions.
For the sound, I just use kext utility/kext wizard with the kext I attach, nothing else required and Int works.

I tried with VodooHDA, but sound stops working after some minutes.
Where do I find ALC292 instructions and files?
What can I do regarding the screen going black on startup?
Thanks. -
Hi all,
I have a 5440 (Intel graphic card and 768p screen). I successfully install Sierra, everything working but wifi and audio.
Regardless the change I want to make, audio or wifi drivers, on next boot the screen dims to black when apple logo. If I boot with -v, it keeps happening. It's not that the screen suddently goes black, but slowly in about 1 second.
In safe mode everything goes well, I get to the OS.
If I install official wifi drivers (TP-Link TL-WN725N), it happens. If I try to fix the ALC292 audio, it happens.
Any guess what happens?
Thanks

I'm n00b on this, could you please elaborate your answer?
Much appreciated. -
Stuck on error OsxAptioFixDrv. Tried with OsxAptioFix2Drv, but same result.
Any idea?

Thanks for your feedback. I tried that guide, but it did not work. I had an ACPI error at boot. I attach screenshot.
If I change inject layout to 11, I lose headphones support, which I use a lot. Headphones microphone does not work either way.
Trackpad is the most troublesome here, as there is some lag at the movement and it makes the experience worse. I use a Magic Trackpad instead. The Magic Trackpad has no lag, I don't know why the Dell trackpad has.
Regarding Clover, I will remove those ATI+NVIDIA properties. Anything else you see I can improve here?
Thanks again.
