on devices/properties i dont have entry broadcom i try and populate the pci with the hackintool method the pc does not start anymore ?

I started on the key and I delivered the config.list saved earlier.

 

No,  just try another SMBIOS for iMac 19,1 if you are using an AMD card. Boot back to macOS with use of your USB installer and redo pci info with hackintool.

Hello guys,

 

I'm reading this thread the beginning to find a way to make work both USB 2 and USB 3 on my hackintosh. I have exactly the same equipment than glasgood, but I'm trying to setup Sierra on it, for compatibility on some softwares. Anyway, my problem is:

 

Only USB2 works when I use this line in Kernel and Kext Patches

com.apple.driver.usb.AppleUSBXHCIPCI -- 83BD74FF FFFF10 -- 83BD74FF FFFF1F

 

If I disable it, only USB3 works.

I've seen theres is a conflict with an other line in my config.plist, but I can't find the way to resolve it... I've tried to remove all USB lines and only put USBInjectAll.kext but it's not working. If anybody can give me a new idea or solution? Many thanks !!

Thanks for your quick answer, unfortunately none of them worked. Maybe I did something wrong, is there any condition to make apply patches in the config.plist?

Try using XHCI-unsupported.kext , use it with USBInjectAll.kext

Just figured out why I couldn't toggle Bluetooth off/on, the Builtin wifi version of this board is useless for OS X you're better off buying just the Pro version without wifi. I had to add this line uia_exclude=HS14 in Clover Configurator under Boot Arguments and it solved the problem. I will have to investigate if by adding that if it impedes any other function - Your thoughts please @ glasgood. 

 

 

I'm sure I remember reading something about having to disable bluetooth on HS14 on the Gigabyte Z390 boards with Intel CNVi . So on your Aorus Pro Z390 WiFi did you include HS14 inside your SSDT-UIAC.aml ? 

It's the Pro version that I bought, mainly because the intel wifi was unsupported in macOS.  Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I will update guide so other's are aware. Should not impede any other function.

I already use them, I use the same kexts as yours... May I join you both config.plist (USB2 only and USB3 only)...

config USB2 only.plist

config USB3 only.plist

Absolutely!!!! - Apart from the useless builtin wifi on the board for OS X, your Guide is absolutely Golden I couldn't do it without your expertise - Thanks again buddy  

 

I've put a note on the guide, cheers !

Try different SMBIOS, maybe iMac 18,3 for High Sierra. I never tested my Aorus Pro Z390 Hackintosh build with macOS High Sierra, so unfortunately I'm not going to be able to advise.

Hi Buddy,

Other then updating clover and whatevergreen and removing the novpa.joeg.kext do I need to make any changes to the clover config plist?

I updated it all with no problems what so ever, thank for your help as always.

I used kext updater to upgrade whatever green and I notice there's a SSDT along with the kext. should I use it or ignore it buddy?

kext updater also updated my lilu and applealc too.

Then I won't use it either.

 

Something I have discovered is I've got a load of rgb corsair bits and I have found that having erp enabled in the bios is much much better as when I power off the system it cuts the power to all USB devices properly enabling all my rgb {censored} to shut off and my USB audio device to shut down, however if i have it disabled then my keyboard and mouse's rgb lighting freak out after shutdown and my USB audio device stays on.

Same thing in windows so I think erp enabled is defo the correct choice of the two buddy.

Definitely sounds the better option then, will update guide. Will also test later that it does not interfere with MacOS installation.

@AudioGod

 

Hi, seems that having erp enabled on causes problem when turning Aorus Pro on at the mains socket.

 

Problem

 

1- When pressing the wall ac mains socket from off position to on, the Aorus Pro briefly powers up and then immediately powers down.  ( this happens without pressing power button on case / chassis )

2- Hackintosh resumes normal startup when pressing the power button.

Ah yes the white mains power up flash. That's normal with asus and gigabyte boards. I've been seeing that for many years now. I don't think it's a fault of any sort though. Il double check but I'm pretty sure it's a little power on self test of some sort.

 

 

Update - what's happening is when erp is enabled and you power up from the mains for the first time the psu is briefly allowing power though the system before the erp kicks in and shuts everything off. The reverse effect is too have something that lights up hooked into a USB slot and shut down the system with erp off and the lights will remain lit up in the USB device because erp hasn't kicked in and shut off the USB power fully. If you like to charge stuff with the system off via USB then leave erp disabled but if like me you have loads of stuff hooked up via USB and more so if it lights up or is rgb then leave it enabled or power keeps going to the devices even though the system is off.

I hope that helps buddy.

I've followed this guide a month or so ago and got my whole system up and running flawlessly. Thanks @glasgood!

However, yesterday I've updated from macOS 10.14.4 to 10.14.5 and now I have a problem. When booting the progress bar underneath the apple logo gets to around 75 percent, but then my monitor loses signal. It takes 20 - 30 seconds before the monitor gets a new signal with the login screen being shown. Other than this everything works perfect.

 

My system specs are:

Motherboard: Gigabyte Z390 AORUS PRO

Processor: Intel Core i7-9700K

Graphics: IGPU (UHD630)

RAM: 16 GB

Storage: SAMSUNG SSD 830 Series

SMBIOS: iMac18,1

 

Do you guys know, what the problem could be? Of course the Framebuffer patches are in my config.plist, I didn't change anything there before or after updating to 10.14.5.

 

Oh, and something funny I've noticed: Since updating to 10.14.5 in the About this Mac section it says I have a 3,6 GHz Intel Core i9, but as you can see in my specs list, it's an i7. I guess that comes from the new iMacs not having a 9th gen i7 but an i9 instead.
