pit256 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Hi, There is a little tweak you must do to make it works and you need to build. You need to replace HDEF device 0x8ca0 with your. AppleALC has not been done for this king of patch, so if you want it to work, you'll need to build with patch I provided and replace with your HDEF device id. Fred Thank you Fred for your reply, unfortunately I think it is beyond my skills. So, unless someone can provide some kind of tutorial, I will stay with shilohhh's AGDPfix script... Thanks anyway Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/308790-applegraphicsdevicepolicy-on-the-fly-patching-impossible-alternate-idea-but-still-does-not-seem-to-work/page/5/#findComment-2335452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtddd Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Thanks, this finally fixed the nvidia black screen issue without having to modify the Info.plist directly. I'm running with SIP enabled again this patch fails on 10.12.2... Thanks, this finally fixed the nvidia black screen issue without having to modify the Info.plist directly.

xtddd Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Pike! You are the man Just checked and at least with my El Cap test installation it apparently seems to work. Unfortunately, the recovery partition still refuses to boot into anything else than the dreaded black screen even with that patch - but thats the smaller problem, since here I can use an alternate Clover config with Mac Pro 5,1 SMBIOS, thats enough for the occasional recovery boot I guess. So if this patch survives Apple updates -> no more manual fiddling - Yay! Very good. Thanks a lot and it's good to see you back. this patch works on 10.11.6 and also works on 10.12.2..

FredWst Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Hi, Happy to see it works for many people. Did you try AppleALC way, it works fine and boot from recovery install without nv_disable.

barijaona Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I've tried this NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext and it appears to be the perfect solution for me. It uses Lilu.kext, so it should work OK with installer and Recovery HD. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/308790-applegraphicsdevicepolicy-on-the-fly-patching-impossible-alternate-idea-but-still-does-not-seem-to-work/page/5/#findComment-2382333 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tasc Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Does this fix still work on the Mac OS 10.12.4 update? Stopped working for me with the update, I had to fallback to editing the DevicePolicy plist again.
