duffs Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Hi ! INFO: Vendor: ATI (0x1002) Device ID: 0x6778 I checked wiki and this is what i found Radeon HD 7470 (OEM) January 2012 Caicos Codename: Caicos then in AMDRadeonX3000.kext AMDCaicosGraphicsAccelerator -> device id's "0x67681002 0x67701002 0x67791002 ..." and in AMD6000Controller.kext -> device id's "0x67681002 0x67701002 0x67791002 ..." --------------------- Fake your device id to something like 0x67791002 in clover.

duffs Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 add your device ID (0x67781002) to the info.plist file inside the following kexts: /S/L/E/AMD7000Controller.kext /S/L/E/AMDRadeonX4000.kext check with ioregistryexplorer. set framebuffer in clover config. use clover configurator app. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/323771-loading-ati-radeon-7470/#findComment-2429604 Share on other sites More sharing options...
redneck Posted May 24, 2017 Author Share Posted May 24, 2017 thanks Duffs I have edited id 7678 on all possible kexts. I use win 10 to copy all id info and then used Chameleon Wizard ! I pasted in the ATI ID section. The resolution looks a lot better ! ( using a jpg picture as a check point ) stills shows at 1024x768.

duffs Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 you need to edit kexts in osx then rebuild kernel cache (use Kext Utility) then reboot. so you are using chameleon boot loader ? hm.. i think you need to make clover usb key. then send me config.plist. you will find guides here on the forum.

franksz Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Hi! I know this thread is two years old... but it’s the only one I found that addresses the AMD 7470. Is there any chance you’ve still got the edited kexts? I would gladly appreciate if you send them to me, too. Thanks!!!
