    How to fix jack sense for on-board audio

    in Audio

    Posted

    Hey everyone,

    This is going to be a small post detailing how to fix jack sense issue while we use AppleHDA for on-board audio. This also fixes crackling noise that we get when plugging/re-plugging a headset.

     

    Note: This method won't work for anyone using VoodooHDA to enable on-board audio.

     

    The fix is very simple. Download latest ALCPlugFix from: https://github.com/black-dragon74/ALCPlugFix/releases

     

    Make sure you have CodecCommander installed. If not, download and install it from: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-eapd-codec-commander/downloads/

     

    Unzip the downloaded file. Open terminal and cd to the downloaded directory.

     

    Then run install.sh file.

     

    I have tested it working fine on ALC 255, ALC 3236 and ALC 295. Please reply with your ALC version if it works for you.

     

    Regards

    Custom styling your signature on OSXL

    in Tips

    Posted

    Hey community!

     

    As you all might know we underwent a massive upgrade from our old forum to this new one. After the upgrade you might have noticed that signatures aren't that well visible. They look completely out of the place and are a total mess to look at.

     

    So, after tuning up our site and handling the core things, I have managed to take out some time today and was toying around with the web developer tools in Chrome.

     

    I wanted my signature to look a bit different and more stylish. As you can see, it also has some fancy animation once you hover over it. You can look at the source code for my signature by inspecting the element.

     

    Here's how you can apply custom CSS3 styling to your signature:

    • Navigate to "Account Settings" from the user settings drop down menu (top right).
    • Screen Shot 2018-05-13 at 12.27.45 PM.png

     

    • Select "Signature" section.
    • Screen Shot 2018-05-02 at 6.22.32 PM.png

     

    • Now you need to change to source code mode as default IPS WYSIWYG is a headache when it comes to styling. Plus the CK Editor we get in Signature's section is very slimmed down (features removed).

     

    • To change to source mode you need to click on the source button on the editor's toolbar. Here's a visual reference:
    • Screen Shot 2018-05-02 at 5.07.20 AM.png
    • Once you switch to the source code mode, the first thing you wanna do is put your signature in the center of the screen. You can also use css but using a <center> tag of HTML would be more handy.
    • Now, by default IPS uses span element to store your signature and span is not that friendly when it comes to animating it.
    • The first thing you wanna do is use a div tag to store your signature and give it a custom unique ID. Like, 
    • <div id="myUniqueID">
  This is a sample signature
</div>

       

    • Here the id of our div element is myUniqueID. We will be using this ID in our CSS to style this element.

     

    • Now, here's the problem, once you use a div tag, your signature will take up the whole place overlapping with some controls in the signature are. Hence, it is a must to use a max-width property to circumvent this issue.

     

    • So, here's the basic bare bones syntax of a typical custom signature: 
    • <center>
  <style type="text/css">
    /** Styling for our custom div element goes here **/
  </style>
  
  <!-- Declare a div tag with custom ID -->
  <div id="myUniqueID">
    This is a sample signature
  </div>
</center>

       

    • Now, I'm gonna provide an other copy and paste code that shows how to control your signature's element using CSS (for noobs) 
    • <!-- Source code for Nick's signature on OSXL -->
<center>
	<style type="text/css">
        /* Styling for the root DIV tag */
        #myUniqueID{
          /** This will control your signature's text appearance **/
        }

        /* Optional if you wanna do something when cursor is hovered (try hovering my signature) */
        #myUniqueID:hover{
          /* Code goes here */
        }

    </style>


	<!-- Now we are just going to create a div element with our custom tag -->
    <div id="myUniqueID">
		Please be kind to others. Help us to help you.
	</div>
</center>

       

     

    That's all that you need to know.

     

    Here's an advanced example of how to use custom code for signature.

    This is the current source code for my signature. If you have any doubts you are free to ask me about it.

      

    <center>
	<style type="text/css">
        /** Custom animation to shake an HTML element using CSS **/
        @keyframes shakeSign {
            0% { transform: translate(1px, 1px) rotate(0deg); }
            10% { transform: translate(-1px, -2px) rotate(-1deg); }
            20% { transform: translate(-3px, 0px) rotate(1deg); }
            30% { transform: translate(3px, 2px) rotate(0deg); }
            40% { transform: translate(1px, -1px) rotate(1deg); }
            50% { transform: translate(-1px, 2px) rotate(-1deg); }
            60% { transform: translate(-3px, 1px) rotate(0deg); }
            70% { transform: translate(3px, 1px) rotate(-1deg); }
            80% { transform: translate(-1px, -1px) rotate(1deg); }
            90% { transform: translate(1px, 2px) rotate(0deg); }
            100% { transform: translate(1px, -2px) rotate(-1deg); }
        }

        /* Styling for the root DIV tag */
        #nicksSign{
            color: wheat;
            font-size: 15px;
            font-family: monospace;
            max-width: 500px;
            margin-bottom: 5px;
            background: #5f32e5;
            padding: 2px;
            -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased;
            box-shadow: 5px 5px 12px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.75);
            cursor: default; /* Prevent cursor from turning into a text selector */
            user-select: none; /* Make it non-selectable */
        }

        #nicksSign:before {
            content: attr(data-hover);
            opacity: 0;
            position: absolute;
        }

        #nicksSign > span {
            transition: all 1s;
        }

        /* Animate only when hovered */
        #nicksSign:hover{
        animation: shakeSign 2.5s ease-in-out infinite;
        }

        #nicksSign:hover span {
            opacity: 0;
            transition: all 1s;
        }

        #nicksSign:hover:before {
            opacity: 1;
            transition: all 1s;
        }
    </style>

	<div data-hover="Thankyou for being here. Greetings from OSXL!" id="nicksSign">
		<span>Please be kind to others. Help us to help you.</span>
	</div>
    
</center>

    Help me fix shutdown asus k43e

    @vinh1978, whenever you try something new suggested by some member and yet are unable to fix the problem then when you report back (after trying) you are expected to provide new problem reporting files (it is written clearly in FAQ thread for gen_debug). Why submit new files everytime you try changing something? Coz, if you change the files many other things also change and they help keep track of how close we are from fixing the problem. Without new files after change, it is like shooting in the darkness and hoping to hit the bull's eye. Hope you understand.

    [Help] High Sierra 5547

    Until BTFirmwareUploader is updated for HighSierra. Use this workaround (bit too much to follow there but if you really need BT that is your only resort as of now.) 

     

    Note: If you are on macOS 10.12 or lower, you can directly use BTFirmwareUploader for bluetooth functionality.

    DSDT Patch Request for GPIO Pinning

    in DSDT/SSDT patching

    Posted

    Hey mate!

     

    Sorry but I can't help you if you don't follow the things I ask you to do. Things you've effectively ignored are:

    1. I asked you to not to apply any i2c patches except Windows 10 patch but you have modified TPD1 and GPI0 methods in your DSDT.
    2. I had asked you the BIOS name of your Trackpad from Windows Device Manager but you didn't provide me with the same.

    Please provide me with the things that I need and then expect me to help you!

     

    Regards
