razorgallo Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) So, I'm installing Yosemite 10.10.2 on my Lenovo s430 (fantastic machine). Almost everything is working thanks to the help of some of you! I just have to figure out some of the remaining issues before posting a complete guide from which everyone can benefit! Issues to be solved: Battery status not displaying. I understood it has something to do with DSDT and therefore it is beyond my understanding (I could try but I need a starting hint). I have Clover. Sound is working with VoodooHDA but it's extremely low whereas plugging in earphones is fine. Maybe I should use other kexts? SDCard not working (maybe never will?) Microphone not working Each time the system boots it searches bluetooth keyboards. I hope some of you may help me solving my issues. I'll then post a full guide to help everyone out there. This is an awesome machine to run Yosemite from. Even at this point I am completely satisfied and beyond expectations. EDIT 1: I solved the low volume issue by changing the output in sound settings under system preferences EDIT2: Solved bluetooth problem by unchecking the option to search for a bluetooth keyboard under system preferences Edited February 10, 2015 by razorgallo Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304445-almost-there-i-just-need-to-adjust-kext-lenovo-s430/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

styrian Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Hello! Nice. If the sd cardreader is a Realtek one, you can forget to make it work. It will never work in OSX. Have fun.

Mac Junky Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I know this is quite historical, but i've just banged High Sierra onto a Thinkpad Edge s430 - in fact typing from it now. Just about to patch the DSDT - was wondering if you just happened to have a summary of the patches you made for it?
