2. Requirements
Here are the requirements:

A Dell Latitude E6320 – This is necessary to install macOS Sierra for this tutorial
A copy of Mac OS X – This can be in the form of an existing hackintosh, a virtual machine within Windows or Linux, or even a regular Mac. If you don’t have any of these things, then find someone who can help you out for a while. I prefer using a hackintosh with OSX El Capitan, Using an already working copy of Mac OS X either in a VM or a native hackintosh install is HIGHLY recommended.
A 8GB USB flash drive (or larger) – We’ll be copying the files to the drive appropriately, so make sure that you have a flash drive with enough storage space (8GB or larger).
A copy of macOS Sierra – The method used by this guide requires that you have a copy of the macOS Sierra Installation app, wich is available for free from the Mac App Store.
30-60 minutes of time – Depending on how tech-savvy you are, this may be quick, or it may take a while.
An SSD or HDD to install 10.12 to – For me, I used a 500GB HDD to install 10.12 to.
An Wireless N Nano USB Adaptor – For use with wifi Highly recommended. I use a TP-LINK TL-WN725N adaptor.
E6320_V2.zip – This ZIP file contains everything that you need to get your flash drive properly prepared.

3. My Specs
My installation was successfully done on an Dell Latitude E6320 i5-2520M laptop computer with the following specs.

Intel Core i5-2520M @ 2.5GHz, 3MB cache, Dual Core
4GB DDR3 1333Mhz RAM
Western Digital 250GB HDD
INTEL HD3000 Video
Intel 825xx onboard network
Dell wireless 375 Bluetooth 3.0 onboard (works OOB)
IDT 92HDxxx HD audio onboard
TL-WN725N Wireless N Nano USB Adaptor
Apple Magic Trackpad (only @home)
Apple Wireless Keyboard US (only @home)
Apple Magic Mouse

4. Download OS X Sierra

Download macOS Sierra from the Mac App Store.
Once macOS Sierra is downloaded, close the install pop-up that appears using Command (⌘)+Q.
The application INSTALL macOS Sierra will appear in /Applications
Done!

5. Prepare bootable USB Installer
Note on flash drives: You will need a USB flash drive to make this work. Your USB should be at least 8GB and a USB 3.0 drive is preferred. Kingston sells an 8GB USB 3.0 drive for less than 10 euro.
Now, we need to prepare the USB Drive so that it will properly bootup on your PC. Make sure that the disk you choose to use doesn't contain anything that you want to keep, because the following tutorial will purge everything on the drive.

Open Finder - Applications and right-click on Install macOS Sierra and select Show Package Contents.
Open Contents - Resources.
Open a Terminal window thru Applications - Utilities - Terminal.
In the Terminal window type sudo followed by a space.
Drag the createinstallmedia file from the finder window opened in Step 4 to the Terminal Window.
Type --volume followed by a space.
Connect your USB drive and drag the USB drive into the Terminal Window.
Type --applicationpath in the Terminal followed by a space.
Open Finder - Applications and drag the Install macOS Sierra into the Terminal Window.
Press Return on the keyboard to submit the full command.
Type a 'Y' to continue when prompted to do so, and press Return on your keyboard
The install process will begin by erasing the contents of your USB disk and copying the installer files to the USB disk. The entire process is quite lengthy; it can takes around 15-30 minutes, so you will need to show some patience

6. Installing Clover to the USB Disk

Unpack the E6320.zip to your desktop or specified map you preferred.
Open the map E6320 - Clover_v2.3k_r3726.

Go to map where you have unpacked the E6320 zip file there you will find a map called EFI.

Copy the map EFI and go to your EFI partition thru Finder.
Paste the EFI folder in the EFI partition and replace everything.
Done your E6320 is ready to boot macOS Sierra.

17. Install Wlan driver for the TL-WN725N
The wireless lan on the Dell E6320 doesn’t work, therefore I use a Wireless N USB Nano Adaptor from TP-LINK. The software is straight forward and installs without problems.

Go to your E6320 folder which you have extracted to your HDD of your macOS Sierra.
Open the map "beta driver for mac os X 10.11" .
Run Installer_RTL.pkg
Click Continue - Continue - Continue - Agree - Install
Enter your Password and click Install Software - Continue Installation

Done!

18. What's working?
Just about everything.

19. Finished!
You’ve successfully installed macOS Sierra onto your Dell Latitude E6320.

TROUBLESHOOTING

20. iMessage & FaceTime Fix
You will need MLB and Rom numbers from a legit Mac device that is on the mac server.
Run iMessage debug on a iMac, Macbook, etc and make a copy and paste of the Terminal output.

Open Clover Configurator.

pepto · September 26, 2016

My 2cents contribution to this thread...

Regarding hardware specifications, please note the following:

LAN card is Intel 82579LM Gigabit Ethernet (PCI ven id 0x8086, dev id 0x1502)

Audio card is IDT 92HD90 (Codec 76E7) High Def audio (PCI ven id 0x8086, dev id 0x1c20)

Card reader is O2 Micro SD card reader (PCI ven id 0x1217, dev id 0x8231)

You do not need to use VodooSDHC kext for the card reader, the following DSDT patch supports the device OOB and avoids Sleep/Wake issues caused by VoodooSDHC. Under the RP0x device used for the SD card reader, rename device PXSX to SDXC and add the following _DSM method:
                Device (SDXC)          // renamed from PXSX
                {
                    Name (_ADR, Zero)
                    Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)          // injected DSM method
                    {
                        Store (Package (0x08)
                        {
                            "AAPL,slot-name", 
                            "Built-in", 
                            "device_type", 
                            Buffer (0x11)
                            {
                                "Media controller"
                            }, 
                            "model", 
                            Buffer (0x18)
                            {
                                "O2 Micro SD card reader"
                            }, 
                            "compatible", 
                            Buffer (0x0D)
                            {
                                "pci14e4,16bc"          // Apple's own device as declared in AppleSDXC kext
                            }
                        }, Local0)
                        DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
                        Return (Local0)
                    }
                    ...
NB: on my E6220, the card reader is located under device RP06. You'll have to check this in IOReg to locate it on the E6320 as it may differ.

Regarding the Clover on-the-fly patches:

1) IOGraphicsFamily:

I'm pretty sure all you need to fix the boot display glitch is:
Find 0100007525
Replace by 010000EB25
That's all I'm using and it's working fine.

2) AppleIntelSNBFraphicsFB:

The vanilla SNB framebuffer kext contains the following display port definitions:
01 02 04 00 10 07 00 00 10 07 00 00 // Nb of connectors -> "04"
05 03 00 00 02 00 00 00 30 00 00 00 // built-in laptop display
02 05 00 00 00 04 00 00 07 00 00 00 // display port
03 04 00 00 00 04 00 00 09 00 00 00 // display port
04 06 00 00 00 04 00 00 09 00 00 00 // display port
`
The following mods will give you HDMI video/audio + VGA + DVI (off docking station)
Find 02 05 00 00 00 04 00 00 07 00 00 00
Replace by 02 05 00 00 00 08 00 00 05 00 00 00   // patched: HDMI, display port #5 (built-in port)

Find 03 04 00 00 00 04 00 00 09 00 00 00
Replace by 06 02 00 00 00 04 00 00 08 00 00 00   // patched: VGA, display port #8 (built-in + docking-station port)

Find 04 06 00 00 00 04 00 00 09 00 00 00
Replace by 04 06 00 00 00 04 00 00 07 00 00 00   // vanilla: DVI, display port #7 (docking-station port)
`

If DP output is desired (port #6), either of the following 2 mods can be used instead of one of the above lines (display definitions limited to 4 ports):
02 05 00 00 00 08 00 00 06 00 00 00
or
04 06 00 00 00 04 00 00 06 00 00 00
NB: With this DP mod, external audio only goes through DP (not HDMI) and VGA dies.

Herve can you post de DSDT for the SD fix.

kamandshop · September 26, 2016

I tried the way you said,

In step 9, I just faced some errors(2 threads but only found 1), after searching I found this topic:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/205531-kernel-panic-should-have-2-threads-but-only-found-3/

and I renamed the DSDT.aml to DSDT2.aml and the problem solved, but now after I wait for progress bar to fully load, it shows me prohibition sign instead of apple's logo and it does not pass.

Can u help me solve the problem?

pepto · September 27, 2016

@Herve I have tried to patch the DSDT but I get a unexpected $end, can you help me out with this about patching DSDT I am a Noob . I have included the DSDT which I use.

Oke I have done some searching I have found the PXSX in IOReg but I see 2 RP, RP02 and RP06 the only difference is the awake entry ACPI-WAKE-TYPE 0X2 See attached screenshot of ioreg

Also have attached the DSDT editor screen, I have tried different things but every time I get a unexpected $end

DSDT.aml.zip

pepto · September 27, 2016

Latest news from me i have used a 6220 DSDT and everything is working well I know that is not the right method but its works for now.

kmorope · September 27, 2016

Latest news from me i have used a 6220 DSDT and everything is working well I know that is not the right method but its works for now.

You can post the DSDT file please ...

pepto · September 29, 2016

@Pepto, you've gone through all the trouble of posting screenshots of your IOReg but for the wrong device! Can you please confirm that your SD card reader is indeed under RP06. Reboot with your E6320 DSDT then check the PCI ids listed under RP06->PXSX device. Expect vendor 1217 and device 8321.

If, as expected it's indeed RP06->PXSX, use the attached revised DSDT. It's got:

* DTGP method added

* RP06.PXSX renamed to RP06.SDXC (i.e. same device name as Apple's)

* required DSM method injected into RP06.SDXC

Revised_E6320_DSDT.aml.zip

I will give it a try

kmorope · September 29, 2016

Well...I replace all EFI folder in new zip version but the sound fails .... using the new DSDT posted by Herve its fine and the config.plist mod with via ports works fine too.

maco55 · September 30, 2016

Hello, I got the TP link usb wifi and installed the latest driver. However, it's telling me that I'm connected but there's no internet. Is there a hack or a kext that can help with that?

thanks

It must works if you have the TL-WN725N Wireless N Nano USB Adaptor. No need to hack the kext.

Hi,

I need some help i hope you guys can help me out.

I installed the sierra on my computer, and it works perfect. Only problem I have that it's not boot only with the installer pendrive. I installed clover but it doesent mount EFI partition, I installed with an app, and copied the the EFI folder to the partition. I cant boot even in Legacy or UEFI.

Hi,
thank you for this tuto very clear. OS sierra woks fine on dell e6320 i3.
But, I have a problem if you can help me. the step 14 for tuto doesn't works for me. the PC can't boot without the USB.
After type :
sudo diskutil corestorage revert /

error message :
/ is not a coreStorage Logical Volume

Thank you in advance

wern apfel · October 31, 2016

I own the E6420, so far i know it has the same hardware. Do you have smooth scrolling at Sierra, or it is jumping line by line ?, i have rarely used it lately, and can't remember if it was so from the beginning.

thx for reply

I type these command and the result below :

homes-MBP:~ home$ diskutil list

/dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER

0: GUID_partition_scheme *250.1 GB disk0

1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk0s1

2: Apple_HFS mac 124.6 GB disk0s2

3: Apple_HFS Laptop 124.3 GB disk0s3

4: Apple_HFS Untitled 650.0 MB disk0s4

homes-MBP:~ home$ sudo diskutil coreStorage revert disk0

disk0 is not a CoreStorage Logical Volume

homes-MBP:~ home$ sudo diskutil coreStorage revert disk0s1

disk0s1 is not a CoreStorage Logical Volume

homes-MBP:~ home$ sudo diskutil coreStorage revert disk0s2

disk0s2 is not a CoreStorage Logical Volume

homes-MBP:~ home$ sudo diskutil coreStorage revert disk0s3

disk0s3 is not a CoreStorage Logical Volume

Finally no logical volume.

I don't understand, the EFI partition exists but no boot without USB.

after re-install boot loader, there is no change.

I'll continue my check

thx
