avin7000 Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I had perfectly working Hackintosh on 10.9. However I had to update to 10.9.3 cos of Xcode Beta 6. I have taken back up of kexts from /S/L/E directory Here is what I did: Downloaded 10.9.3 combo update Installed it When I booted it started going to blank screen after Io Bluetooth Completed So I removed all graphics related kexts AppleIntelHD*, NVDA*, GeForce* Rebooted. Now I can boot into it 10.9.3, however no graphics. The resolution was at 1280x1024 Restored kexts from back up, no luck, same error as step one. Removed them and rebooted again. Then I installed these kexts (I have also attached same kexts as attachment here) , now resolution is fixed at 1080p, however I find it quite slow. It takes time (in mili seconds perhaps) to draw the graphics on screen. Not sure how do I explain it better. It's just slow. I load DSDT from /Extra/dsdt.aml (I have also attached this)smbios.plist (located at /Extra): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>SMfamily</key> <string>MacBook Pro</string> <key>SMproductname</key> <string>MacBookPro8,1</string> <key>SMboardproduct</key> <string>Mac-94245B3640C91C81</string> <key>SMserial</key> <string>C02FMWBCDH2G</string> </dict> </plist> chameleon plist file: (from /Extra/) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1920x1080x32</string> <key>IGPEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Kernel</key> <string>mach_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string></string> <key>Legacy Logo</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Theme</key> <string>LoginToLion</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>2</string> <key>UseKernelCache</key> <string>Yes</string> </dict> </plist> Laptop: Dell XPS L501x,nVidia GT 435m Graphics (vendor id:0x10DE, device id: 0DD3) Any help appreciated!

avin7000 Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 ^I think it may work, however I followed the advice here pikeralpha.wordpress.com/2014/05/01/os-x-mavericks-10-9-3-build-13d55-seeded/ and edited the relevant kext to match my smbios.
