gpspl Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Hi, my laptop Lenovo ThinkPad x220 (i5 SandyBridge, HD3000, UEFI boot). I have an expresscard usb 3.0 card from NEC/RENESANS, model NEC upd720202. The card isn't working under clover (usb device eg. keyboard, mouse and HDD aren't working). When i start booting osx it start working). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Use GenericUSBXHCI and this boot-args -gux_defer_usb2 -gux_no_idle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpspl Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 The USB 3.0 works in OSX but not in clover 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 The USB 3.0 works in OSX but not in clover What?? Just put the boot-args in the correct place. And use this kext. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpspl Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 I have that kext and flags. In osx my keyboard (connected to usb 3.0 nec controller) works great, but i cant use it in clover bootloader menu to select other bootable partition. USB 3.0 is not working in clover bootloader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 What method you use for install Clover in UEFI mode? And what SMBios are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpspl Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Clover is just installed on efi partition (GPT HDD) my smbios - MacbookPro8,1. UEFI Drivers: -FSInject-64.efi -NTFS-64.efi -OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi -OsxFatBinaryDrv-64.efi -VBoxHfs-64.efi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Hmm, none of original MacbookPro8,1 have USB3 ports. Change for MacbookPro 9,2 - Is a test ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpspl Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 HD 3000 and 9,1 i think it's a bad idea :>. But smbios dont have efect on clover bootloader(i think :>). Only in clover menu USB 3.0 don't work in OSX after loading GenericXHCIUSB.kext the controller works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 If you don't want try, i can't do nothing about that. Are you using the last version of Mavericks? You can do more things like: DSDT patch Or wait for Clover developers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpspl Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 I think we don't understand each other :>. DSDT(eddited :>), SMBIOS, boot flags are responsible for booting Mac OS X on PC:>. USB 3.0 conected to expresscard extension slot (It's not native Lenovo usb) works great under Mavericks, Yosemite and El Captain (using genericxhciusb.kext). In Clover Bootloader USB 3.0 devices (Keyboard, HDD) are not working. Only in Clover Menu the USB 3.0 not works, in OSX and Win it's working. PS:I will try everything to get USB 3.0 to work. Also sorry for bold but i want you to know what i mean :> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 You tried use modded firmware? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpspl Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 No, can you tell me more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 You can also try PXHCD. Hmmm about Firmware, sorry, the method that i mentioned is only for real Macs. I send a PM for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpspl Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 I did use that firmware update in past. But still you sugest me to try another kext :>. Not working usb 3.0 (i think:>) it's not a kext thing, becuse kext is loading and working great but only when i start booting Mac OS X(SO USB 3.0 works in OSX, and kext is loading). My problem is the USB controller isn't working in bootloader, not in osx in bootloader (Clover) :>. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
