Yes, I've removed CustomEDID and used only the kext.

Files are in PM. ;) (without any injection)

The 2560x1440 resolution parameters generated by SwitchResx without EDID injection are still same as #145.

Ok, found time to make the overrides and patch your original EDID and make an override for an iMac display.

It's tailored specifically for your screen so install this, correct permissions, clear cache, reboot and it should work fine ;)

Thanks Andy!

But no change under Mavericks, same as #151... :blink:

I also tested 10.8.5, and got these:

Odd...

I'll check it once more.

Let me test replacing one in the extension block...

Thanks Andy!

Ok, I've made a new one.

This one also has CEA extension block set to that resolution.

Hope it isn't interlaced, then it needs another edit...

Also advanced E-EDID editor for Windows... attached below...

Same result, seems it's not the problem. And choosing "Best for display" still switch to 1080i.

I made a little tool to dump the info and certificates from the PK, KEK, db and dbx databases.

You can save the files through your BIOS in the UEFI BIOS menu and then get the info with this app.

 

Download below

Source is included ;)

 

EDIT:

Added Win32 and Win64 versions of the app... :D

Code slightly rewritten to silence some MSVC complaints...

 

Example of my KEK decoded:

Added Windows versions of the app + slightly updated source.

It now builds with MSVC too...

Made Win32 and Win64 versions with MSVC 2010.

Made Win32 version with MinGW32 too...

I have no Linux installed or I would compile it there too ;)

Hi,

Thanks for this great app :)

 

I would need to chance my EDID but ran into some problems. Actually I did get it working yesterday, but after I reinstalled Maverics today I can't get it working anymore. I only have one display, internal laptop LCD.

 

What I did was:

 

Dumped my EDID with DarwinDumper.

00ffffffffffff0030e458020000000000150104802313780a1be59e595098260e505400000001010101010101010101010101010101643240b8628424304060354059c210000019982140b8628424304060354059c21000001900000000000000000000000000000000000000000002000c49ff0a3c64292d4164000000001f 

Opened EDID.hex on HexEdit and changed one number, then saved it.

00ffffffffffff0030e458020000000000150104902313780a1be59e595098260e505400000001010101010101010101010101010101643240b8628424304060354059c210000019982140b8628424304060354059c21000001900000000000000000000000000000000000000000002000c49ff0a3c64292d4164000000001f

On FixEDID 1.9, loaded edited EDID.hex, changed display type to MacBook Pro display, then make.

 

Checked info.plist from DisplayMergeNub.kext and it had this EDID

0FFFFFF FFFFFF00 061014A0 00000000 0A160104 A51D1278 026FB1A7 554C9E25 0C505400 00000101 01010101 01010101 01010101 01016432 40B86284 24304060 354059C2 10000019 982140B8 62842430 40603540 59C21000 00190000 00FC0043 6F6C6F72 204C4344 0A202020 00000002 000C49FF 0A3C6429 2D416400 00000026

I changed it to my edited EDID and installed kext with Kext Wizard, rebooted but I still had my original EDID when checked with ioreg -l, also Kext Wizard didn't show DisplayMergeNub in loaded kexts.

 

I wonder what i'm doing wrong here?

It's probably due to caching.

remove caches, remove injector, reboot. remake the injector, install it reboot and it should work

Thats what I did. I've tried everything but can't get it to work anymore.

 

In the created kext, IOKitPersonalities/Monitor Apple ID Injection contains correct display product id and vendor id but in IOKitPersonalities/Monitor Apple ID Injection/IOProviderMergeProperties everything is wrong, all the ID's, displayprefskey and EDID. EDID is something entirely else than what I have on the hex file I used when creating the kext, also FixEDID displayed correct ID's when I created this.

 

Any ideas what might be wrong? Below are the files I used when I created this kext.

 

ioreg.zip

EDID.hex.zip

DisplayMergeNub.kext.zip

How can I convert the extracted .mod files to .efi?

 

Thanks.

by removing the efi header.

most .efi files start with MZ in the beginning.

so throw it in a hex editor, search for MZ and remove all bytes before it. save as .efi

apple's updates (the .scap files in the pkg) for firmware can also be extracted by phoenix tools.

Any ideas why this won't work on some laptops?

Unfortunately: no.

All the tests I've done so far all worked.

I haven't seen yet a case where the driver didn't work...

Could you check if the above kext I created with FixEDID has anything weird. The problem is that it won't load. I have AMD 7570M.

 

I tried it again when I did a clean install. I didn't do anything else after install, except added correct framebuffer and some other options on Clover's config.plist graphics section to enable QE/CI.

<key>Graphics</key>
	<dict>
		<key>FBName</key>
		<string>Typha</string>
		<key>Inject</key>
		<dict>
			<key>ATI</key>
			<true/>
			<key>Intel</key>
			<false/>
			<key>NVidia</key>
			<false/>
		</dict>
		<key>LoadVBios</key>
		<true/>
	</dict>

I then ran DarwinDumper, used that EDID.hex in FixEDID, selected "Apple MacBook Pro Display" left other settings default, and then make. Installed and cleared cache with Kext Wizard, rebooted but DisplayMergeNub.kext is not loaded.

Thanks Andy for all the info you provided here.

 

I eventually found the time to extract HFSPlus.efi from some recent EFI firmware updates (both MBA6,1 and MacBookPro11,1). I was able to use them (surprisingly, both were different), but unfortunately, it didn't help my problem booting "without caches" with Clover.

I made a new version of the TV VGA driver for windows.
Now it supports an Apple ICM profile.
This works on non-plug and play TV's with resolutions of 1280x960 and 1600x1200 (2 drivers).
Works on Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 (tested as I made overrides for some friends too for their plug and play monitors)

EDIT: Slighly updated version.

This one first removes the old override data and then sets the new data and sets the modes...
