Thank you so much for this guide! Super easy to follow. I set up my first Hackintosh in about 2 hours with Win 10 Dual Boot!

I have a quick question though: In the Settings it now says i9 9900k but I'm running a i7 9700k. Do I need to change this to make it run more stable? Or is this just text?

If so, could you please explain how to?

Thank you in advance

If using AMD graphics such as RX580 or Vega then ammend Device / Properties where device-id and AAPL, ig-platform-id: 

 

Change to:

 

device-id 983E0000

 

AAPL,ig-platform-id 0300983E

Thanks, but is it actually necessary or just cosmetics? Since it seems to run smooth right now I don't wanna mess up :)

Have a look through the previous posts and replies within this guide from @panosru others and myself. Most of the advise for troubleshooting Bluetooth / WiFi devices would have been discussed. 

Thank you for once again! I don’t know how I missed that whole conversation, I went through almost every page, my apologies. I will attempt later today and see if I can get it to work.

It is necessary for some applications that use the iGPU such as Final cut pro. Quick view or preview on jpeg files sometimes stop working if igpu and smbios is not setup correctly. 

For example: if your smbios is imac, the system will look for igpu with hardware acceleration for application, if the igpu is not setup correctly, the app will stop working properly or switch to cpu for the task.

Thanks for the heads up.

 

I need to bother you anyway. I don't know where to ammend the info

Is this in Clover Configurator?

 

 

Also I just realized there's a bigger problem with USB ports. Only the USB 2 ports on the back of the mainboard are working properly but no USB 3 port is working.

Any ideas? Thanks for the support.

It is in clover config, Devices --> Devices Properties. 

Are you using the same Motherboard as Glasgood's and what EFI folder are you using?

Hi! I am currently creating the mojave usb flash installer. And in terminal, i dont know if the COPYING TO DISK progress is stuck at zero percent or is it just really slow? Is it normal that it takes too long in that part? Thanks!

It depends on the USB speed you have. Mine is really quick. I'm using a Samsung SSD T5 for my Boot disk by the way.

Thank you for the screenshot!

 

Yes, I'm using the Aorus Pro (BIOS F9) and I used POST-INSTALL Aorus Pro Z390 EFI - RX580.zip from the first post.

 

 

EDIT: I don't know what I'm doing wrong but after change in Clover it still says i9.

 

What I did:

In Clover Configurator:

- Mount EFI (Boot Disk)

- Load config from EFI (see screenshot)

- Changed parameters

- saved config

- reboot

 

Am I missing anything?

I don't think it matters much at this point. As long as you get the iGPU running. It's just cosmetic , I think. 

About the USB 3 problem, using the default config from Glasgood, the USB 3 port only works with USB 3 devices. USB 2 devices will need to be plugged into USB 2 ports. 

 

Just a question, with the XMP disabled, i doubt that it makes my system not detect 3200mhz of my ram, it only shows 2133mhz. Is it okay to enable it? What will happen if i enable it? Or is there other away to correct this? Thanks!

I did a bit more testing. When running Geeibench it says 9700k. So it seems to be just displayed wrong in system infos. HVEC and h.265 seem to work fine.

 

with USB 3 i’ll probably have to create my own layout then?

I activated xmp in bios after installing macOs and it works fine with 3200MHz

Ok so i was able to figure out my bluetooth not working or showing up at all in bluetooth device, turns out the usb port on the motherboard where i connect the bluetooth cable was disabled. I was so confused on how that happened so i just replaced the whole efi folder again with a new downloaded one from the first page. I was also able to overclock my I7- 8700k and have it running nice at 4.9GHZ.

 

So just when i thought everything was running perfect i have come across an issue when i wake the computer from sleep. It seems as its either freezing on my password login screen or the usb ports don't work at all since my keyboard and mice don't work. I even tried reconnecting the usb's and reconnecting them to another port but i get no response. I end up having to hold the power button and restart the computer. After doing some googling i have found that creating a SSDT fixes most sleep issues but your EFI already includes a SSDT so i'm left wondering if it can be something else causing this issue?

Do you have a dual boot Windows configuration with Windows installed on a Samsung Plus SSD ?

No I am just running Mac OS. I am using a hp ex950 nvme ssd.

 

I've tested HP EX950 2TB version, make sure you update the latest firmware. It may cause some problem with temperature detection.

Can you validate all BIOS settings are the same as Glasgood's instruction.

I haven’t noticed any temp issues yet, but once I get home I’ll check to see if I have an update available. At this point I’m crossing out any possible solutions as I really need sleep to work properly. How easy is it to update a firmware for a ssd?

 

I did verify prior to this issue that my bios settings where done exactly but I’ll recheck as well just to be on the safe side.

I literally copied and pasted Glasgood EFI to mine and it works perfectly with sleep. In fact this is the most stable machine I've ever had. Therefore, any deviation from the original hardware config maybe the cause of the sleeping issue. 

Let's just temporarily disable the overclocking and reset all bios settings to the default then set it back to Glasgood's recommendation and test. (save your OC profile before do this :) ).

Yes I agree, it is extremely stable and since this was my first build I made sure to not deviate from his guide. The guide is so well put together as well, it made my life so much easier. I actually had this sleep issue before over clocking as well which is what makes my head hurt lol.

 

I can’t seem to figure it out but I’ll go ahead and do the following when I get home.

- update ssd firmware if available 

- reset bio settings and set them again

- copy EFI over again , which I haven’t changed anything tbh

 

Hopefully it’s something I missed on my part but I’m afraid it won’t be as I was extremely thorough when setting it up. :|

Hi! Does siri work in this particular build? If yes, what do i need to buy for it to work? Thanks!

 

Yes, Siri is working. Choose your microphone from System Pref / Sound / Input.
