Hi all, I have been using an x240 thinkpad for more than 2 months as hackintosh and it is very stable. As of now I am in Catalina 10.15.1 and it’s running great until I updated it to the new clover build r5100. My laptop won’t automatically sleep when I close the lid down now. I reverted back to 5099 and close-lid automatic sleep works. I don’t know what caused the problem but I think 5100 fixed a dsdt patching of some sort that that conflicted with my config plist? Thanks in advance!
Bios settings:
UEFI - ON
CSM: Disabled
AHCI
Integrated Graphics: AUTO
Primary Graphics: iGFX
Memory: 1024M
DVMT: MAX
Working
Everything
(App Store, Messenger, FaceTime, etc.)
Not working
For AirDrop and Handoff you need a compatible Broadcom Wifi+Bluetooth card. I bought a BCM94360 card with a PCI-E adapter, it's OOB. Currently waiting for arrive, will report back.
Issues
Sometimes I hear crackling sound (just on Catalina 10.15.1, didn't happen on 10.15 or before) If you don't have this issue please let me know.
Before updating to newer versions, update your kexts! (and Clover if necessary)
Generate a new serial with Clover Configurator
Download the Clover folder: Z77P-D3-catalina.zip
- SMBIOS: iMac13,2: iMac (27-inch, Late 2012)
- ig-platform-id: 0x0166000b
- There is no need for Whatevergreen.kext
- The HD 4000 is working with- or without a graphics card (headless with IntelQuickSync)
- RX 5700 (ASUS RX 5700 GAMING OC 8 G) working OOB, just delete WhateverGreen.kext (causes black screen)
Triple-Boot Win 10 and Linux (in my case it's Manjaro) (on one drive)
Make sure your drive is in GPT and you're using UEFI
If you have Win 10 installed then:
Open diskmgmt (Disk Management), then Shrink your existing Win 10 partition to create two new for Mac and (if you want) for Linux
If you have Mac installed:
Create a new partition for Linux and (or) Windows in FAT
Simply format that partition in Linux, Windows, or Mac installer, then install the OS
Copy your working Clover folder to the system's EFI drive
If it's automatically booting to Win, open cmd in administrator and write:
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\CLOVER\CLOVERX64.efi
That's it, automatically booting to Clover and you can select your OS
If your Linux doesn't show up in Clover make sure you have GUI/Scan/Linux=Yes in config.plist
Mount your EFI on Windows:
Open CMD in administrator and write:
mountvol b: /s
Use Explorer++ or TotalCommander in administrator to manage the folder

Gigabyte, in their infinite wisdom, decided to remove the option to disable serial ports, and not being able to do so has been causing me some problems. I know that I have to either use a patch in clover, or create a custom SSDT to disable super I/O, but I honestly do not know how to go about doing this. One of the weirder problems I'm experiencing is the inability to connect to Apple Music (error 11556) unless I go into my network settings, and delete my serial connection. If anyone could help me out with this, that'd be greatly appreciated; anyway, thank you for taking the time to read this.
