gLockstate 3 error and other fixes on ASUS n552vw A

Hello
I have some problems in High Sierra on ASUS n552vw-A

 

First of all this is my specification :

 

Model : ASUS n552vw-A
CPU : core i7 6700 HQ 2.9 GHZ
GPU : Intel HD 530 + NVIDIA Geforce GT960m 4GB DDR5
Monitor : 4K Screen ( 3840 x 2160 )
MEMORY : 12GB DDR5
STORAGE : 120 GB SSD + 2 TB HDD (It's Full of Data)

 

I have installed macOS High Sierra on SSD after a lot of trial and error cause of not booting macOS installation process from USB2 flash bootable HSierra and stuck in
error line with verbose mode that said : gIOConsoleUsers : gLockState 3 and bla bla , but then I'm successful with my fine clover and fresh one that at least could
install macOS High Sierra with no error but the bad things happen after this moment, after installing macOS HSierra the first boot that OS installed is OK but if you reboot or shutdown and again boot to OS you get that error line said above and done It's stuck. I don't know why this happen by the way my laptop model was OK with Sierra (I don't install sierra my friend did and we have same model laptop) that shows our laptop can have macOS HSierra.

Another thing, I have some questions :

 

  1. Is GTX 960m need Nvidia Web Driver or not need this ??
  2. Can we use macOS without Nvidia enabled and using with Intel only or we can't ?? (Or reverse without Intel one and using with Nvidia Only)

 

When macOS booted for a first time the macOS itself is OK except these :

  1. Audio
  2. Touchpad
  3. Battery
  4. Wireless Network
  5. Keyboard Backlight
  6. FN Keys
  7. Monitor Brightness
  8. and
  9. NVIDIA

 

After that I reboot macOS and this time I get same error gIOConsoleUsers : gLockState 3 and bla bla and can't boot again
as I know this error is for graphic cards

 

So can anyone help me to make a OK EFI folder clover configuration that can boot macOS and not show any error

After that we can talk about functionality things and make them right

but now the problem is Intel + NVIDIA problem

 

NOTES :

If I want to reach macOS after first boot I must boot into recovery and enter these commands
After that macOS can boot again and I can reach desktop but again if i reboot or shutdown the next time is same (recovery - commands - reboot to macOS)

 

cd /Volumes/HDD/System/Library/Extensions/
rm -R GeF*.*
touch /Volumes/HDD/System/Library/Extensions/
cd /Volumes/HDD/Library/Extensions/
rm -R GeF*.* NVDA*.*
touch /Volumes/HDD/Library/Extensions/
reboot

 

NOTES 2 :

I have 1GB EFI/ESP partition in my SSD for future EFI folder that copied there and boot macOS without flash USB

BUT for now it is empty

 

NOTES 3 :

I'm not a pro like most of guys in this forum, please help me if you can thanks in advance

 

NOTES 4 :

If i have money now be sure I bought a MacBook pro but for now I can't pay for that

 

NOTES 5 :

Files attachment will be uploaded, my network rate is slow

The files will be uploaded are :

My Clover folder that I could install macOS High Sierra with it and get no error specially boot loop and glockstate 3

and

Some pictures about error in helping process

 

THANKS
