panosru Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) Ok! I found it, it was on glasgood's post So, to recap! They both work only on HS07 but I need to have my dongle on HS07 and keyboard on SS08 :/ neither the dongle nor the keyboard work in any other back port Edited October 21, 2020 by panosru Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/339980-audiogods-aorus-z390-pro-patched-dsdt-mini-guide-and-discussion/page/153/#findComment-2741568 Share on other sites More sharing options...

panosru Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) btw I updated my post, it takes like two whole f* minutes to post here... I meant to say SS08, not SS07. Tbh I haven't tried the front case ports because they are literally unusable in my case because of their position. I only use the front USB jus to play a USB drive from times to times, but that’s all...

Its just to test and see where u are at. ok so if you tell me what ports you don’t need like the front usb2 and 3, 3,1 I can adjust and move stuff around to give you more USB2/3 ports that share?

panosru Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) Both front case USB ports work with the keyboard and the dongle. I kind of need them to inject the thumb drives I'm using, but that is the only purpose for them. The back USB are also usable. I have some USB2 devices and a USB2 hub connected there, I also have a USB3 device connected there but I don't care about the speed for that device that’s why it is there. In SS04 I have my CamLink 4k connected, in SS03 I have my TimeMachine disk, in SS05 I have an external hard drive, in SS08 I would like to have my keyboard, and in HS07 I have a USB3 hub on which I also have the dongle connected and it works fine. I almost never used SS06, I had to use it 2 or 3 times if I remember correctly, but that’s it. I might need it in future for USB type 3 devices, but for now, I don't care about it. 12 minutes ago, AudioGod said: BRB I’m gonna have a shower...lol Be careful to not overenjoy yourself in there it happens!

Be careful to not overenjoy yourself in there it happens! Well you need to decide firmly bro as any ports you can free up I can assign to other places. do you use the front 3.1 port? (that would give me 2 free spaces if you don't) almost never using ss06 means you use it now and again so it might bug you if I shut it off all together.

panosru Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Ah... sacrificing is always a tough choice! Hmm... Since there isn't any other way, let me try and see maybe I will disconnect something from the USB3 hub where my BT dongle is and connect the keyboard there and the disconnected device will be connected in the port SS08, if that works then I'll be ok!

Ok sure, If you come to a decision though then just let me know. Like for instance if you only use usb2 on the front usb3 ports then that's would free up 2 ports. the front 3.1 would give you 2 more. that would be enough to share the io shield usb3 ports with usb2. Thats just an example but you get it anyway. Unfortunately because of the 15 port rule sacrifices have to be made but I'm sure there's a setup that would suit your needs just right, you just need to think about it.

dsynos80 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Updated bios to f12j. Everything works as before. Overclock, Wifi, sata hotplug in case dock, etc. Clover 5122 Aorus pro wifi. Nice to have CFG Unlock option. I tried to update to latest Clover 5125 but it doesnt boot. I also noticed that i have RC scripts installed. Is that a problem? if yes, how can i remove them. Bluetooth kexts still cause error at boot. Succesful boot is random with those.
