Okay, I had not noticed. perhaps it's because I'm using an external USB interface with their own drivers. Thanks, for the tip Gils, so then use with AppleHDADisabler.

My 2 cts :P.

 

AppleHDA > No audio

AppleHDA + VoodooHDA > KP

VoodooHDA w/o AppleHDA > iTunes issues

AppleHDA + AppleHDADisabler + VoodooHDA > All fine !

 

Lastly : AppleHDA + AppleHDADisabler + VoodooHDA > No issue whenever you update since it's very likely that AppleHDA will be reinstalled (not a problem anymore assuming 10.10.5 is the last update for Yosemite ;) but still true with newer versions of OS X).

Gils and I have tested successfully for a while ago, another variant, but one must look it as an experiment. A hybrid of AppleHDA and VoodooHDA ... works without Kernel Panic. :)

Yes, it's possible but IMHO, too complex for the same result… And don't forget the updates ! With this method, any modification of the AppleHDA will break the trick. unless they're only applied in the VoodooHDA :unsure:

I have already mentioned, this is to be regarded only as an experiment and has no chance of a daily use ... then you have after each update, tinker .. that's not good.

Hello to all

Im new to Hackintosh.My rig is that in my signature.I ve installed Yosemite 10.10.1 (yosemite zone).My system as far as i can see and understand works fine but something is telling me to update to 10.10.3 .I tried some guides  but without any luck.

With all your respect what kernel should I use and which kexts. In other words if you have the patience how would i update to 10.10.3 succesfully.

Thanks in advance.

with kernel 14.5  Y2k4u

 

listen , it's video and audio SF 4.5 video 960/540 30 fps // Audio 48 khz 320 kb/s

but capture files UHD 4k 60 fps/audio FLAC 5.1 and files audio Itunes 

 

audio ALC 887 892 voodooHDA 2.8.4  96 Khz / 24 bit (Slice/Andy) works very good , no crackle and no desynchro 

 

files MP4 H265 ;)

use one of the last two current 10.10.5 kernels, see here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/285580-database-of-current-working-amd-kernels/page-4?do=findComment&comment=2168603

whether it is necessary to replace system drivers, according to the update of 10.10.3 to 10.10.4 you must try it for yourself. I suspect that this is not necessary because we now have a current kernel.

 ....kernel invalid opcode 64 bit .....

 

1.)

It is always better to install the new kernel on a freshly installed version (clean Install without changes to the system drivers !! ). You must now reconstruct what changes you made before or after the update in the S/L/Extensions folder. make the changes undone! fix the permissions, renew the kernel cache.

 

2.)

should you not know what system drivers you have exchanged or changed, that would not be good! Then you need to replace S/L/Extensions with the current "Extensions" folder from the current Yosemite version! (***1) Then you have to reparier the permessions and renew the kernel cache!

 

Edit:

Install all drivers for your hardware and FakeSMC, Nullpower etc. in Extra/Extensions/
Boats with the addition: UsekernelCache=No

 

(***1)

Open the DMG with the DiskImageMounter or Disk Utility, or Pacifist, a pkg file can open with Pacifist.app and then export the complete Extensions folder, and thus exchange the Extensions folder in your partition. I hope that this description will help you to resolve your problem.

@Gils,  which may be possible in his case, but I am not sure what he has made changes Previously, I gave him a description in order to make a limit any Possible errors. Basically, he must be remembered what he has changed before.

 

Edit:

But such questions belong to the help toppic.

the problem is that members confuse many things and created problems that do not exist now knowing that the update 10.10.5 asked many problems, members have mixed everything without knowing what changed.

I recommend reinstalling the combo via 10.10.5 pacifist and proper tree resume his rights, then just replace the kernel and reboot with -f simply.

no problem with Phenom x4 B55 ;)

 

sound works good , no crackle , no desynchro with voodooPstate enable ;)

 

and many thanks Bronya for file "boot" :)

After update  via App Store get black screen when try to boot. I've tried both kernels, no luck...

try with: nvda_drv=1 or nv_disable=1

this bootflag was for Lion, to resolve the problem of the black screen.: darkwake=0

I do not know if that will work for Yosemite?

Didn't work.( I've using official mac driver so it's useless..

Same result. I think I will do a clean install of mac os x and then report here.) Edited by ImmortalSoulL

black screen or reboot ? 

 

and GraphicsEnabler=No -f 

You're right, I was so blind! It was clover fault! When I've installed my mac, even then I couldn't boot, there was that black screen and then reboot! But then I've booted succesfully with chameleon, installed voodoohda, repair permissions and rebuild cache. And then I was able to boot into system with clover bootloader with my usual settings... Strange why clover couldn't boot for the first time after update or after clean installed mac. But now I have clean mac, I even have it working without patched pthread.kext, only original! Thank you guys for another good kernel! It's awesome!

I had the same exact problem when trying to boot 10.10.5 vanilla fresh install :D

 

Clover didn't boot at all and even when it could, it ended up with black screen (old Nvidia GT 8600 btw use now AMD Radeon HD 5450 because of conflicts between integrated nForce Geforce chipset and discrete card). The only solution was to first boot with boot-flags -f (and GE=Yes in my case GE=No with patched AMD kexts) to let the system rebuild the cache and load all necessary kexts. I guess this has something to do with the way how Clover manage kernelcache vs Chameleon booting directly on the kernel :unsure:.

 

After that, Clover was able to boot and inject it's own kexts from CLOVER/kexts/10.10.

 

Now, it's not perfect since I'm still facing weird issues where the system boots but doesn't load the whole UI. I have mixed results using Clover or Chameleon but at the moment, it's still very hazardous and I can't figure why…

 

But one thing is for sure, this new kernel 10.10.5 works terrific with vanilla OS X 10.10.5 (at least on AMD systems which is kinda ironic for Intel's unsupported CPUs :P) and I want to thank all of you for this !

 

Guys, you rock as usual :thumbsup_anim:  !

you should know that with Clover, it is impossible to start without kernelCache, I tried all kinds of flag unsuccessful when the kernel change requires restart with Chameleon -f (ignore cache), once the cache rebuilt with kext wizard, it is then possible to restart with Clover ;)

Correct !

 

Please be kind with me :queen: .

 

This is my very first attempt to use Clover as the main bootloader on an AMD system :P. My old one was a fu****g HP with a bios that remind me the 90's era :hysterical: !
