I am having a problematic right click. I have been using the bootpack from @Jake Lo and was running smoothly with Monterey. This is my only problem. Right click on the button does not work, right click with 2 fingers work but buggy (repetitive clicks back and forth). Scrolling also triggers right click. Also the touchpad was not recognized as touchpad What I have tried: VoodooPS2Controller & VoodooPS2Controller-ALPS on bootpack - buggy right click, seems like right click and 2 finger scroll is mixed. when scrolling is disabled, I can trigger right click with 3 consecutive touchpad clicks VoodooPS2Controller (Latest from acid) - Not working Touchpad is working smoothly without issue on windows 11 (22H2) I attached the sample screen recording of what's happening. I also attached the IOReg if that will help. My hack details: e7440 i5 12GB RAM Alps v3 (as per boot logs but I'm not really sure) Bios: A28 Monterey 12.6 Regards, John Screen Recording 2022-11-25 at 9.42.53 AM.mov.zip John’s MacBook Pro.ioreg.zip

A while back, I used Clover to install macOS Mojave on my Dell Latitude E7440. I installed an AzureWave AW-CE123H card (BCM94352HMB chip) for wireless. Everything was working great. But Wi-Fi stopped working, perhaps after (my stupidity) allowing an OS upgrade from 10.14.? to ?+1. (Bluetooth stopped working as well.) So I bought another AzureWave AW-CE123H Wi-Fi card, thinking that the hardware might have failed. No dice. But otherwise, the computer continues to work well (I just use Ethernet when I want the internet). I had always wanted to play with OpenCore, so I installed Catalina using Jake Lo's OC 0.6.0 EFI files (https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/13155-solved-e7440-no-usb-port-working-with-opencore/?_fromLogin=1) Wireless still doesn't work. Symptoms are: System Preferences:Network Sidebar shows "Wi-Fi off" with a red dot. I click "Turn Wi-Fi On" and the "Network Name" popup flashes, but remains set to 'Wi-Fi Off" Click the "Advanced" button, Wi-Fi tab shows one of the local SSIDs, but no connection is made System Report app Bluetooth "No information found" Network:Wi-Fi - see below On the off-chance that the wireless card had "worked loose", I removed and re-installed it. Mechanically, everything looks fine. My question: How could I debug this? What other information could I collect? Many thanks!

Hello forum members. In a german hackintosh forum i found some code snippet to correct map the brightness keys for a Latitude E7440. # _OSI(WIN7) is needed for brightness keys into method label OSID code_regex _OSI\s+\(WIN7\) replaceall_matched begin LOr(_OSI(WIN7),_OSI("Darwin")) end; #syscl_fixBrightnesskey_VoodooPS2 into method label BRT6 replace_content begin If (LEqual (Arg0, One))\n {\n Notify (LCD, 0x86)\n Notify (^^LPCB.PS2K, 0x0406)\n }\n If (And (Arg0, 0x02))\n {\n Notify (LCD, 0x87)\n Notify (^^LPCB.PS2K, 0x0405)\n }\n end; How and where do i have to implement this? And, is this compatible with the VoodooPS2 kext modified by @Bronxteck

Everything is working fine on my dell e7440 except sleep and battery %. The computer sleeps alright but mostly wakes up to a dark screen. I have tried darkwake=0,1 and no bootflag, nothing worked. The other thing is that the battery % doesnt update automatically. I have to manually refresh it. Can anyone please have a look at my efi and suggest any changes. Thanks a lot. pls hellp. EFI.zip

Hello, I'm trying to install catalina to my Laptop ( Dell e7440 ). I had mojave working in this previously, and from there I downloaded catalina very long ago. Today, i saw this guide : and decided to install catalina. I Followed the new install method because i wanted a fresh install. and i also used this bootpack : First I updated some the kexts available in EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Others which i could find from the links provided from that link above. Then i rebooted to install and successfully got to the catalina installation page. ( One thing to note here.... when i boot the first clover that is loaded is Clover Version 2.4k rev 4871 , and then i had to choose 'Boot UEFI optical from Install MacOS catalina' to go to the latest version 5118) I erased my install drive completely and started the installation, the installation went fine and rebooted, now in Clover ( 2.4k rev 4871) i selected boot MacOS Install from Catalina ( i named the drive catalina as said in the guide ) and it got stuck at the very beginning. I restarted the laptop and selected the same macos install from Catalina with verbose option and it gave me this ( the image attached ) FYI: processor : core i5 bios : A08

I am new to hackintosh and after many hours reading and testing I managed to install it in my Dell E7440. Everything works fine and it’s super smooth. Ethernet works perfectly. I installed a USB WiFi Dlink DWA-123. Installed the MacOsX drivers available in DLink site and the WIFI adapter is recognized and looks like is working fine in MacOSX. The WiFi Utility is installed and it detects all the available networks around my home. I am able to successfully connect to my home WiFi and get the correct IP settings by DHCP. WIFi indicator is green but I don’t have internet connection. I discarded a DNS issue as I cannot connect or browse using IP addresses. Using Ethernet everything works fine. What I have found is that if I disconnect the WiFi and then reconnect again I have internet connection during 1 or 2 seconds just after the WiFi is reconnected but after that I am back with no internet. I am quite sure this has to be a very simple to,solve issue as the drivers are ok, the connection is ok, and even I have connection for a couple of seconds. Maybe is a routing issue, or a IP network stack configuration issue. things I tried: create a new location uninstall and reinstall USB WIFI drivers Enable and disabling Proxy detection Setting manual IP configuration Setting Google DNS instead of my ISP ones any help or orientation will be greatly appreciated. Thanks to everyone in advance

Hi, I just finished getting Catalina clean installed using the Clover Guide and the E7440_Catalina boot pack. My problem is that I'm not able to start the laptop after rebooting. I'm able to boot up properly if I start up using the Clover installation on my flash drive. However, if I start up using the Clover installation on my laptop drive, I get stuck on the Apple logo and without a progress bar underneath. I tried my best to follow the post-install instructions and even tried out different kexts versions, but right now I'm stumped. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I used gibMacOS to download Clover r5092 because I wasn't able to get the latest version to inject the ethernet kext during the OSX install.

Hello everyone, I have a sound problem after installing catalina beta on my dell E7240. (same as Dell E7440) Everything works except sound and bluetooth. I would like if possible to solve the problem of sound first. I tried to add the kext AppleHDA_ALC292.kext in L/E, or to copy paste S / L / E AppleHDA.kext from High Sierra to S / L / E Catalina and it's still not working. After each change, I dumped kext cache and repaired partitions. Thank you to the person who will help me.

Hi everybody. I just updated my Latitude E7440 I7 Full HD from 10.14.4 to 10.14.5. I use this forum bootpack and with BIOS option "Legacy Boot" enabled, MAC OS MOJAVE 10.14.4 worked fine with built in LCD screen and also with a Phillip 1080p monitor conected by HDMI. After upgrading to 10.14.5, with Legacy boot enabled in BIOS, laptop freezes (black screen at the end of boot) when HDMI screen is connected (built in screen works fine, but with some troubles with, for instance, Ableton Live SUite, which makes graphic noise in some windows). If I change BIOS legacy boot from enabled to disabled, HDMI monitor works fine (closing the laptop), but built in screen does not. May be should I upgrade some kext? Many thanks for your attention. Entropic.

After I upgraded to Sierra 10.12.4 yesterday, brightness is not working anymore. Instead the brighness is at the maximum value. Changing the brightness with Fn+F3 and Fn+Insert shows apple's brightness indicator changing, however without effect. I tried installing Rehabman's latest IntelBacklight.kext on my EFI partition, without luck unfortunately. What are the steps I should take in order to fix the brightness in Sierra 10.12.4? Thanks!

Hi, I got E7440 with HD4400 plus 1080p screen. Currently installed Mojave on SSD. I am having problem with iGPU. I followed guide to create USB installer with EFI bootpack for high sierra and Mojave but they will not show up installer/desktop after DSMOD has arrived. I tried igfxvesa command. I got installer GUI but graphics acceleration is disabled. So I installed Mojave on it then booted desktop without graphics acceleration. There is other guy who have EFI bootpack for Mojave version and same E7440 model and hd 4400. It came with FakeID 0x04128086 and ig-platform-id 0x0a260006. No luck with graphics acceleration. For spec on bios. here are them!

So I had my hackintosh on standby and the battery ran out. Now when I try to boot it gets to clover and I select my partition to boot and nothing happens. I then booted in verbose mode and all I get is a line of +'s. I have a Dell latitude e7440. i7, 8gb ram. If you need any other specs lets me know. Thanks!

I have successfully got my hackintosh running on my Dell Latitude E7440 thanks to the guide on this forum. I have one question and tried looking for the answer, but reading through 60 odd pages of comments got difficult and I didn't fully understand so i was wandering if someone could help. How can I adjust the pressure sensitivity for my trackpad? I currently have to press quite hard to register any touch, which with multitouch gestures on a small track pad gets to do consistently. When I say press hard, it's not very much pressure, but compared to my dell xps in windows and macbook pro at work it's quite a lot. I know these track pads don't require that much force as when I used this machine with windows 10 I could press much more lightly. Thanks in advance!

I was having 10.13 with working usb ports. But after installing 10.13.4 combo update usb ports are not working anymore. But 10.13 installed on another partition still working fine with working usb port (both are using same efi folder). I tried installing usbinjectall.kext no success. I added AppleUsbxhcipci .kext patch in kextstopatch (even though i dont have a AppleUsbxhcipci.kext in S/L/E ) Any help will be appreciated

Hey guys! I need patch's for my laptop DELL Latitude E7440 i5 4300U BIOS A25, i'm actually using A20 version of i7 taken from Bootpack, i'm looking to patch the ACPI tables extracted by clover. Here are the F4 ACPI Dump origin.zip thanks

Hi guys, I am fairly new with Hackintosh and was able to make my Dell Latitute E7440 into a Hackintosh by following the guide by Jake Lo here, which was very detailed and well written. Currently, I am running OS X v.10.12.6, and an SMBIOS of Macbook Pro (11, 1). I am just encountering some issues with my Mini Display Port, wherein if I plugged in a monitor in the MiniDP, it would cause my laptop to restart indefinitely. I am using a MiniDP to HDMI adapter to do this. Also, I noticed that if I first plugged in a monitor through the HDMI port, then plugged in another monitor through the MiniDP, it doesn't cause a restart. I attached the kexts in my Library/Extensions, and EFI/CLOVER/kexts. Hoping you guys could point me to the correct direction. Thanks!

Hello. I have Dell Latitude E7440 i5 4300U 8GB Intel HD 4400 1366x768. I make a bootable USB flash drive by this topic I created a bootable USB flash drive with High Sierra, install Clover v.4368 with parameters for UEFI, replace config.plist from bootpack and copy kexts in /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/. In BIOS i set up UEFI booting and SATA mode AHCI. But at boot time Clover don't see drives. What is the problem? P.S. sorry for my English

Hello guys, I am very happy about my E7440 running High Sierra, however I experience an issue while connected to two external monitors. I connect using the HDMI port and a Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort adapter. This works great, but when the screen is locked, or when the system goes to sleep, the system crashes and shuts down. Without any external monitors connected this problem does not occur. I am using the bootpack from the Clover guide along with Lilu.kext, Shiki.kext and IntelGraphicsFixup.kext. After reading this topic, I was thinking that this might have something to do with my current SMBIOS ProductName (MacBookAir6,2) or with the current VRAM amount (1536MB). I tried looking up the error in system.log, without any luck. Is this a known problem, and would changing the VRAM or ProductName solve this problem? Thanks!

Hi crew I installed fresh copy of HS on my E7440, and it runs smooth. But I ran into a problem with post installation guide. I get 'Attempting system restart.. MACH Reboot' when I restarted. I think it happens when I generate new Serial number. If you ask why I think that, it's because before I proceed with post installation guide, I wanted to check if I'm able to login with an apple ID. Instead I got 'Account limit reached', and after Googling I figured it's because of the serial number. So I generated one and restarted. Then it hit me with mach reboot. went back to previous config, and booted again fine and continued with post installation. Then again Mach reboot. P.S: Tried MacBookAir6,1/6,2 , both same result. P.S2: File System: HFS+ Clover Installer: v4289 Clover Configurator: v4.55

Hello I'm using the bootpack posted here on my E7440 i5 (macOS Sierra 10.12.1), it works OK. (I'll update this bootpack with latest changes). With the 10.12.1 update, physical volume buttons are working again. Clover version: 3882 (10/28/2016) Just replace/update your touchpad and keyboard driver (VoodooPS2Controller.kext) with Dr. Hurt's Refined ALPS TouchPad driver Release 5 Final posted here, I must say this one is almost perfect! (Gestures, horizontal and vertical scrolling, trackstick, etc) amazing job Dr. Hurt. No preference pane though (Known issue with this kind of driver and Sierra) unless you update it with one from 10.11.6 or older. Rarely but sometimes it reboots or starts without sound (more often when rebooting) it gets automatically fixed with another reboot or power off & start. (This is probably a rebuild cache issue after an update) Hangs when trying to play iTunes movies, and certain video formats on the web. (still can't figure what's going on here...) For those using Fortinet VPN client (which includes antivirus for some weird reason...) I've found that Forticlient (5.4 latest version) is not compatible with macOS Sierra, it was causing some bad issues on my SSD partition, some examples were: an error appeared when booting into macOS (kext not compatible), longer times to load, long time to shutdown (30 seconds or more), I'm sure this caused my partition to die last week, I could not even mount it anymore and i had to format it... (Time Machine saved me), i reinstalled just to see if I had the same results and yes... it even caused an error again...

Had another kernel panic "com.apple.iokit.ioacceleratorfamily2", but can't find much on how to fix the issue.

System panics when I attempt to install macOS Sierra from USB drive.

Will updating my E7440's BIOS to the latest version (A20) cause any issues when updating to macOS Sierra?
