I used Vanilla Image Olarila ( Clover ) I boot to the Hackintosh successfully with no issues , Copied the EFI from the USB Install Catalina to my SSD where I installed the Hackintosh and reboot . What Worked from the start: - Ethernet What I had to install Kext : - Audio (Works good) - USB (Works good) Issues I have : which I need fixes for. - Brightness is so low , can’t control it to make it higher , When I boot to macOS on the logo brightness is fine till the loading bar reach half it dims and goes to really low brightness ( I have tried installing the kext IntelBacklight.kext and also tried AppleBackLightFixUp.kext) and added SSDT-PNLF.aml to my ACPI/Patched , but nothing worked - TrackPad ( laptop mouse pad ) works fine but with no functions like scrolling down for up , using commands like 3 fingers to switch to another desktop or anything like that. - Microphone and webcam doesn't work - WiFi doesn’t work doesn’t even show in settings , my laptop wifi card is ( Qualcomm Atheros QCNFA34AC ) - Nvidia GeForce , ( I have Nvidia GeForce 940M 4GB ) - I have Intel HD 5500 ( I5-5200U 2.2GHz ) I’m not sure if it’s Working on the Hackintosh or not , but everything is smooth and I can see the transparency in dock also in launchpad , I have also installed Photoshop and it works fine so for the intel I think its working good . Now this is everything with my Hackintosh , it’s amazing I just want those fixes , for my Hackintosh and any further advices from you to make it perfect , if I get those fixes I think Hackintosh will be my daily used machine Here is a link to all the files I could provide of my Hackintosh , my used ( EFI , RunMe , also System/Library/Extensions ) if you need any further files I can provide please let me know , https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1VUQlYprb9E8N_keLFUNYbU-iBpTfaX5d?usp=sharing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
