We don't know the rule why black or gray.

Apple decided to add a black version of this boot screen to newer Macs. But Mid-2012 for example, boots with a white background and grey Apple logo/progress bar.

Nope. My MacPro4.1 (Firmware Upgrade to 5.1, macOS.10.12) does the same, white logo on a black background.

Good.I saw that on macrumors https://goo.gl/KBVfNn Perhaps, not Mac Pro5,1?

It's done by board-id.

hmm, is it possible to select load vbios under graphics in config.plist without injecting Nvidia? (for my card injection gives me 0mb vram)

 

edit: lol, and still have the rom file load (I'm assuming this shows the rom being used)...

I am having issues with KextToPatch. Bootlog shows this:

0:107  0:000   - [0]: System\Library\Extensions\IONetworkingFamily.kext\Contents\PlugIns\Intel82574L.kext

0:107  0:000  [ERROR] bin2hex '0x10d38086' syntax error
0:107  0:000   - invalid Find/Replace data - skipping!

the KextToPatch section and ForceKextToLoad section look like this in config:

		<array>

What is wrong?

The only way is this one

Edit: "Drivers64UEFI" is for me?

ASUS P5N-E SLI have BIOS Legacy ;)

This UP movie made without this edit "You can ad OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi in Drivers64UEFI"

Did you try with a DSDT.aml in patched folder ?

I think Your problem is not relate to Clover but hardware

No ;(

I search many days DSDT for my MOBO, but not get.

I don't know how create this DSDT for my MOBO.

I get my DSDT from Clover F4, but I don't know how I patch it.

Send me here on Zip  the complete folder ORIGIN 

All my hackintoshes had black background. I saw gray apple in random cases.

 

Yes, but you need to use an SMBIOS that is supported by yosemite(?) and then not subsequent releases? Any SMBIOS that still works is going to have black background because the firmware has for sure been updated. You can google darkboot and see how they used board-id patch and nvram variables to modify the boot screen. Also IIRC that nvram variable for background color is set back to default every restart/shutdown.
