ludufre Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) New guide available for macOS Catalina 10.15 (i3 and i5 versions)! Installing OS X El Capitan 10.11.5 on ASUS VivoBook S400C (also know as S400CA) Specifically in S400CA-CA178H model, most likely all other models are compatible Updated 22/11/17 #1: - High Sierra 10.13.1 on ASUS Vivobook S400C (S400CA-CA178H). Updated 27/06/16 #1: - Altered Brightness to fix with Clover <KextsToPatch> method. - Added Kexts to fix USB port injection (FakePCIID.kext, FakePCIID_XHCIMux.kext and USB.kext). - Touch Screen was missing from the list. Added and now works. - Sleep now works after DSDT patch - Card Reader now works too - Created section about DSDT and Todo list - Added missing patchs - Updated BIOS config list before install. Updated 26/06/16 #1: - Added patch in <KextsToPatch> in Clover config.plist to fix 2nd Stage Boot logo. (not in attachments) What works and what does not work - Processor -> Work. i5-3317U @ 1.7Ghz/2.6Ghz. SpeedStep 8 to 26 stages. AsusAICPUPM <true/> in Clover config.plist. - Video Card -> Work. HD4000. Full QE/CI.- Chipset -> Work.- HDMI -> Work.- VGA -> Not work.- Audio -> Work. VoodooHDA 2.8.8 (use PKG file).- WiFi -> Work. Replaced by Athero 9285 Wifi/Bluetooth (https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=atheros+9285).- Ethernet -> Work. AtherosE2200Ethernet 2.1.0.- Keyboard and touchpad -> Work. ELAN, FocalTech and Synaptics (Smart Touchpad) Driver (Mac OS X) (version 4.6).- FN keyboards keys -> Work. Changed FN keys layout inside ELAN kext above.- Brightness control -> Work. Clover <KextsToPatch> below.- Touchscreen -> Work. USB port inject kext in attachment.- Sleep -> Work. DSDT patch (below) and <HighCurrent> set to <true/> in Clover.- Battery -> Work. ACPIBatteryManager by RehabMan (version 2016-0531) and DSDT patch (below).- Card Reader -> Work. USB port inject kext in attachment.- Integrated Camera -> Work. AnyiSightCam.- Bluetooth -> Work. Bluetooth Firmware Uploader (version 3.1).- 2nd stage boot logo -> Work. Clover <KextsToPatch> below. What you need to install - Running install of El Capitan on VMware -> Downloaded version 10.11 via torrent (search by "10.11 vmware" torrent). You can use a real Mac of an friend. My method only works on Mavericks (10.9) and above.- One USB flash drive of 8GB or bigger.- OS X El Capitan install app -> Downloaded via App Store inside the virtual machine. Downloaded version 10.11.5.- CloverEFI -> Also download inside the virtual machine. I used build 3577.- DSDT patch skills -> Needed to battery works. How to patch DSDT. Or you can download mine DSDT below, but would not recommend. How create the flash drive Creating the install: Format the flash drive with GUID partition mapping and name it "Install" Open terminal and run this command: Quote sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ El\ Capitan.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Install --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ El\ Capitan.app --nointeraction This will take about 30 minutes.Installing bootloader: Download the CloverEFI (used 3577) and install with this options on "Install OS X El Capitan": Options: - Install for UEFI booting only - Install Clover in the ESP - Drivers64UEFI - CsmVideoDxe-64 - Drivers64UEFI - OsxAptioFixDrv-64 Will be created a partition named EFI. Edit the /EFI/CLOVER/config.plist and change those values: - Graphics - Inject - ATI - <false/> - Graphics - Inject - Intel - <true/> - Graphics - ig-platform-id - 0x01660003 - KernelAndKextPatches - AsusAICPUPM - <true/> Important: Rename "#Inject" to "Inject" and "#ig-platform-id" to "ig-platform-id". P.s.: I will provide below my config.plist as attachment. Now you will need two Kexts: - Download the Smart Touchpad kext from here. I used the version 4.6. - Download the HWSensors dmg and use the FakeSMC.kext from inside. I used the version 6.20.1410. This is very important. Can't boot without it. - Put these Kexts inside /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.11/ - Put the Clover installer on the flash drive too. Now you can start the instalation without problem (I guess). BIOS Setup Configuration and Installation - Shutdown the ultrabook and insert the flash drive. - Power on with F2 pressed to enter BIOS setup. - Go to "Save & Exit" and press "Restore Defaults". - Go to "Advanced" tab and change these values: - VT-d: Disabled - Go to "Save & Exit" again and select "Save Changes". - Now in "Boot Override" section select the flash drive named with UEFI prefix. In my case "UEFI: KingstonDataTraveler 2.0PMAP". - The clover menu will show. Use the arrow keys to mark the flash drive. The option name is "Boot OS X Install from Install OS X El Capitan", then press Enter. - If you did everything correctly, you can start the installation. Remember: Format the HDD or SSD with GUID partition mapping. - This will take about 20 minutes. - After first part install the system will reboot. You need to press ESC to enter Boot menu when Asus logo appear. - Select the flash drive again. - In Clover main menu, press enter in "Boot OS X Install from Install OS X El Capitan" once again. - The second part of the installation will begin. This will take 16 minutes. Post installation - When the second part of install finish, the system will reboot again. - After performing the user initial setup and go to the desktop, you need to install Clover on internal disk. - Open the Clover installer inside flash drive that you copied before. - Use same options above but choose the system partition this time.- Now you need to replace the EFI folder inside your internal disk EFI parittion with EFI folder inside flash card EFI partition.- The flash drive EFI partition is unmounted. Mount with "diskutil mount /dev/rdiskXs1". To know what X is, use "diskutil list", most likely is 1. - Now restart the system. You need to press ESC to enter Boot menu when Asus logo appear. - Select the flash drive again.- In Clover menu, use arrows and go to the last option with name "Clover Boot Options" and press Space. - Select the option "Add Clover boot options for all entries". - Shutdown, remove the flash drive and power on.- If you do everything wright, the system will start normally. Others Kexts: Download the kexts from the links below. I strongly recommend always use newest versions. If you are too lazy, I attach on end of the post. Ethernet: AtherosE2200Ethernet 2.1.0Sound: VoodooHDA 2.8.8 (use PKG file). You need to select the output there in System Preferences after reboot.Battery: ACPIBatteryManager by RehabMan (version 2016-0531). You need to path DSDT (below).Bluetooth: Bluetooth Firmware Uploader (version 3.1).Integrated Camera: AnyiSightCamUSB Port Injector: FakePCIID and FakePCIID_XHCIMux (version 2016-0512) and USB.kext attached below. All kexts will placed inside /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.11/, mount again this partition (diskutil mount /dev/rdiskXs1) for it.

Will be stored in /EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/origin.

To do list - Replace VoodooHDA by aDummyHDA (AppleHDA Patcher). Can't make mic/output jack work. I don't know how fix the layout. - Sleep and Hibernate Entering to sleep have a delay ~30 seconds, and wake to blackscreen, making necessary to press any key to power on the display. Hibernate not work. The system never wake up. (temporarily disabled with "pmset -a hibernatemode 0") - Brightness adjustment by FN keys Need time to search DSDT patch. Attached files used in the installation. For God's sake, always use the newest versions. And last but not least I would like to thank the following community members, by making these dream possible:@crushers, @snatch, @apianti, @blackosx, @blusseau, @dmazar, @slice2009, @autumnrain, @phpdev32, @EMlyDinEsH, @RehabMan, @Scellow, @mitch_de, @Shailua, @Andy Vandijck, @maxfierke, @ArturXXX, @LexHimself, @brumas and all others members involved directly or indirectly.

vusun123 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 You should try to use AppleHDA, not VoodooHDA as it produces terrible audio output on laptops. AppleALC is a good way to start things off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vusun123 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 I think it is a good way to try using SSDT to patch everything ( similar to Rehabman's SSDT-HACK for Probook/Envy ) instead of using old-fashioned DSDT patching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
