Fingers crossed! Hope you succeed on that and trackpad will finally work as it should. I will keep refreshing your 7490 thread in case you add it there.

Not in my case, I am afraid. Trackpad works worse than before... It only moves about 1cm before stopping, so have to lift the finger from the trackpad and move it again. Is there anything can be done?

Now everything works?

Besides asking me por the password (which is normal as the file is in /S/L/E), everything is smooth as expected.

To be honest, all my kext are in Clover. I know they should be on /L/E, but I will move there when everything work smoothly.

Have you updated your 7490 tutorial with it? I don't see it. Sorry about the quotes.

Yes, I talk about that EFI attachment. As you can see, touch movement is good. What I try to say is: Your EFI is better that mine, except the trackpad movement. My EFI is better only for the trackpad movement. Can you implement my trackpad movement into your EFI? We would have best of both worlds.

In the clover folder I attach, the trackpad works good when it comes to movement (acceleration could be improved, but you can work with the computer) and gestures. What do nor work are the physical buttons. Maybe there is something you can add to your configuration so the mouse pointer behaves better.

I keep working on that package on the guide you kinked before. Now it works (I added my patched DSDT overwriting yours). It boots, I have HDMI audio, VGA, headphones, everything BUT mouse movement. The mouse pointer moves let say two inches on the screen, it stops. I move it again and it stops after a few movements. This is the only thing I am missing.

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.

Hi all, After countless hours of work, I have an almost functional system. My Dell 5490 specs are: Kabylake-R i7-8650 Intel HD620 16Gb RAM 512 SSD ALC256 USB-C Intel Wifi I2C Trackpad What works: Intel HD620 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! CLOVER.zip

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. For the sound, I just use kext utility/kext wizard with the kext I attach, nothing else required and Int works. AppleHDA.kext.zip EFI.zip

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.
