80% of the USB3 issues solved... NEED HELP!

Gogeta5026 · October 4, 2015

I have 4 USB3 on the back HS04, HS03, HS10, HS09 ; 4 USB2 on the back - HS06, HS05, HS14, HS13 ; 1 USB3 on front case HS01, 2 USB2 on front case HS08, HS07 ; 1 USB 2.0 on 3.5" drive slot seems to be HS11, HS12

I'm just so confused on what values (0, 3, 255) to assign ports and keep wondering if I'm even doing it the right way.

When I use the USB_Series9_Injector.kext from http://www.insanelym...-sle/?p=2172168, I get everything working but the 2 USB3 on back (HS04, HS10) and the 3.5" drive slot USB (HS11, HS12).

This is what my kext looks like:

If anybody can help me tweak this to get my 2 non-working ports in the back working I would greatly appreciate it.

Post your IOReg.

This is my computer (EVERYTHING), I got from IOJones. I had to rename it to .txt in order to upload it

I answered to you on the wegface's thread. You forgot the "SSPXX" values for your USB 3.0 ports and you have 17 ports that exceed the 15 ports that El Capitan can identify.

You have to sacrifice a USB3.0 port or 2 USB 2.0 ports.

TheRacerMaster · October 4, 2015

You should rename EHC1 & EHC2 to EH01 & EH02. XHC can stay as XHC. Try the attached port injector.

Edit: This doesn't include SSPx ports, please post another IOReg once you try this and check which ports are working. Since you have so many ports, you'll most likely have to use FakePCIID_XHCIMux to route some of the USB 2 ports on the xHCI controller to the EHCI controller.

Edit 2: Credits to RehabMan, PJALM & wegface.

SUCCESS!!! Thank you so much. I've been doing this for endless hours with no luck/stress that I completely forgot about the 15 rule.

kignon · October 4, 2015

SUCCESS!!! Thank you so much. I've been doing this for endless hours with no luck/stress that I completely forgot about the 15 rule.

Simple quesiton did you put "SSPXX" value too ? Because if you didn't on your Injector, you don't have the USB3.0 speed on your USB3.0 ports?

To be sure, check Max speed on "About this Mac" -> "USB" section, then click on a USB3.0 devices and check the value of all your USB3.0 ports (Command + R to refresh between each plug out / plug in).

Everything is working at 101%. I know how STRESSFUL this was so this is the SLE kext I made to get this working:

I hope this helps somebody who had the same problem as me!

@ TheRacerMaster: you used the pjalm patch, modified it and added your own name. This is a bit mehhh if you ask me. Please read attached note at the bottom of my guide. Thanks

I didn't use the PJALM injector, I based it off the one I use for my motherboard, which is based off RehabMan's (I put the credits in my repo). But you are right, credit should go to the proper devs.

Then in this case i apologise

Micky1979 · October 4, 2015

What changes from the Pike's/pokenguyen dummy kexts?

mhaeuser · October 4, 2015

Hey TheRaceMaster,

I tried to find the injector by RehabMan you based yours on, but I couldn't find it till now. Would you mind linking it here? Thanks.

TheRacerMaster · October 5, 2015

Sure. There are several different ones (RehabMan has many different DSDT patch repos); mine is mainly based off the Lenovo U430 injector & the HP ProBook injector (hub injection technique).
