Hey ! I need help. I fight with this modem for a few day, I have read some topic about this, but for me don't work with successfully. I have High Sierra 10.13.3, Dell E7240 and Sierra Wireless AirPrime (Qualcomm 4G) DW5570 (7W5P6) (VID 413C; PID 81A3) I used Legacy_Sierra_QMI.kext (so modem is active in system report - position usb and wwan). Who exactly explain me what and how I must edit. FakeSMC.kext or CellPhoneHelper.kext (or both?). Perhaps I have wrong port on USB ? Thank for any help. Greetings Mates!

I need help with My Dell Optiplex 5060 I need install sierra Pls help me Dell Optiplex 5060 Core i5 8500 Graphics Intel UHD 630

Hello everyone.. trying to get some help here. Usually when something brakes on the hackingtosh i am able to identify whats broken by the kernel panic error. This time around i Cant really see whats going on. I finally got around to updating my e6420 running Sierra to the 005 security update. But then the machine will just give me +++++++ and not even start the boot up process. After doing some digging i figured I needed to add AptioMemoryFix-64.efi to my efi clover folder. I did this by mounting my efi through terminal using my install USB. Now the boot up process starts but it halts somewhere along the process. I am attaching a picture of the screen before the machine shutsdown and see if anyone can point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance for any help given. --- Clover version 4114 ----

Hi, I'm having exactly the same problem as here. I Found the workaround is to attach an external display over HDMI, change the resolution and then back again to the previous resolution. But it's not practical. My device is: Latitude E5550 with Intel HD5500 and NVIDIA Graphics which i would like to disable, i just don't know how. I Attached some files from my Computer, maybe there is a solution. Thanks. GPU.zip

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!

Hello, I recently got my hands on a Dell Optiplex 9020 i4590 / 8Go / SSD 500Go (I replaced the hard drive with a ssd). I am trying to turn it into a hackintosh with macOS Sierra by following the Guide with the last bootpack 9020_A20. Unfortunately, I am not able to even create the USB installer. I followed every step carefully (using Clover Configurator 4.53.0.0 and Clover 4243) but when I boot on the usb, the macOs Install option doesn't show up at all. Is there anybody who can help me with that ? Thank you in advance

So, i do have a Dell Latitude E5520(Intel Core i5 2nd Gen, 4 GB RAM, Running Mac Os Sierra(10.12.6)). Everything on it works perfectly, without count the wireless I've been searching for an Wifi Card that works with it The Native Dell DW-1501 Is Incompatible(Not asking about this card), but i got three cards to test, an Realtek RTL8187B, a Broadcom BCM4311KFBG and a AzureWave AR5BXB83 Did anyone uses one of theses cards? If yes, do need some sort of kext to make them work? I tried all of them but none seemed to work (If my EFI folder is needed, just tell)

Hi there, When i want my Dell E5540 with Sierra 10.12.5 to go to sleep, it goes to sleep but immediately afterwards turn on again and then turns off again and turns on again and that continues until i press the space bar and the desktop appears again... Is there a way to solve this?

Hi, I've been roaming around this forum for a long long time. This is my first post and second attempt at Hackintoshing. I finally have a machine I can reasonably well Hack. It's a love child between a 3452, 5558, 3440. In India(where I'm from)it's sold both as the Dell vostro 3446 / Latitude 14. Specs as follows - i3-4005 2C/4T 1.7Ghz (Haswell - 15W ULV edition) Same main board as a 3452. HD 4400 1596Mb shared GT820M Nvidia (disabled - Optimus) ALC 255/3234 audio RTL8111E 10/100 LAN DW1705/AR9565 - Wifi Bluetooth Combo 40Whr Battery 1366x768 Matte LED display I used this fantastic guide that you'll have to create everything and put it together. The 3452 zip was originally used. along with the newest EFI zip BUT Some small changes are needed ADD to clover Haswell Patch + Kernel support CPU + xcpm (without any one it will NOT boot) Remove ALL DVMT/Intel Graphics patches. Remove Patch #5 for audio Latest PS2 controller + Realtek Ethernet Controller from Rehabman's bitbucket account HERE this thread for the ATH9565+Bluetooth combo unit. Yes bluetooth works perfectly. It also needs old way Airport fix to work. (still has intermittent issues with assigning IP addresses) What isn't working -> BackLight Control (known issue) Activity Monitor crashes when looking at energy consumption. Sleep is not working. Closing the lid and re-opening it comes back to an unlocked desktop even after twenty minutes. closing the lid after hitting sleep - wakes the device. Most importantly switching from MacBookAir 6,2 to MacBookPro Retina 11,1 FIXED a LOT of lag stutter and throttling. Boot is faster. App open and close times are quicker. But i cannot generate an MLB and therefore no iMessage or FaceTime. attaching Kext+ACPI+config.plist for reference and in case anyone can help. 3446.zip

Hello. I prepared my installer according to the guide, but when I go to boot to the installer, it shows the Apple logo for maybe 1/2 a second. Does anybody know what could fix this? I am trying to install macOS Sierra

Hello all, first post here ! This forum is a really impressive ressource. I have an Optiplex 9020 USFF on which I successfully installed Sierra by following Jake Lo's excellent guide, and everything seems to work as it should, except for waking up from sleep : it seems to wake up alright (produces system sounds, at least) but the screen stays dark and the only way to get back to a usable state is to turn off the machine and start it up again. The config.plist from the 9020 bootpack (I used the one for A20 BIOS, even though I have the newest BIOS installed) already has darkwake=no as a boot parameter. I am rather new to this, so here is exactly what I did : 1. Installed Sierra on a flash drive with createinstallmedia 2. Installed Clover for UEFI on the flash drive with only OsxAptioFixDrv-64 3. Merged the generic EFI + 9020 bootpacks 4. Replaced the EFI folder on the drive with the one just created 5. Rebooted into the installer and installed Sierra on the internal SSD 6. Installed Clover for UEFI on the SSD, same as (2) but with also RC scripts on target 7. Replaced the EFI folder from the SSD with the one on the flash drive 8. Copied the kexts from /EFI/Clover/Kexts/Other/LE to /Library/Extensions 9. Ran permissions.sh 10. Finally rebooted normally. Seeing as the 9020 bootpack already contains SSDT.aml files, I didn't generate one. As a I wrote, everything works well except that he screen doesn't wake up with the rest. My specs, in any case : Optiplex 9020 USFF i5-4670S 8GB RAM 120GB SSD The monitor is connected with DisplayPort and since it's a USFF model, it uses (flawlessly) the HD 4600 integrated graphics. Any idea ? EDIT : I upgraded to BIOS A22 and everything works now.

I've managed to get a clean install of Sierra working but have not managed to get a few hardware issues sorted out. The biggest is the audio.

Hello everyone, after following instructions on this site i have been running Yosemite on my Asus N53SV for years now. Nothing wrong with my system but i think its time to move to the next OS before im left without support. Issue is I tried upgrading straight from the apps store but didn't work. then i tried following same steps as i did on yosemite but using Sierra and still dint work. I cant even get in to the install screen. Maybe my Yosemite Kexts dont work under Sierra ? Any help will be appreciated. Here are my Specs.

Hi all, I use this setup (X79 Deluxe - 4930K - HD6870) as an audio rig. It all works fine, I'm only experiencing stability issues with everything USB (audio sound card, MIDI controllers). Logic Pro X keeps randomly losing sync with them. I installed GenericUSBXHCI (v1.2.11) from the rampagedev X79 dmg. Has anyone successfully used other USB kexts? I mostly use USB 2 ports. Clover folder, ioreg and tables here: https://ufile.io/3wejy Thanks!

Hello every one, thanks for this great forum! I have a problem, Soon there will be release of a new program which requires OSX 10.11.6 at least! Curenntly I am running Mavericks on Dell 6430 with i7 3740HQ 256 SSD, Optimus Enabled, Bios 11, AHCL enabled, I stll have a bootable USB with my instalation to Mavericks, I used myhack to do it from that topic : https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/7268-dell-latitude-e6430e6530-with-optimus-enabled/&do=findComment&comment=43169 with little updates from other topics. I have WI FI compatible, the only things that do not works are HDMI, Bluetooth and Card reader... My question is: Is it possible to upgrade Mavericks to the system at least 10.10.6? I heard that other OSX works slower than Mavericks, I do not feel a need to do it but new software is pushing me to do that, is it true? Which is best option? I forget to mention I would like to keep my programs and data, I saw somebody done it straight from Apple store but it was PC case. I love Mavericks but need to move futher ;/. Thank you in advance!
