hackattak Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) @ludufre So... This morning I updated Clover (freshly installed it on my EFI after deleting it all and keeping a copy) and then pulled over my SSDT, my kexts & Config and then updated the Kexts to all the latest versions.. and everything booted and is still working great (a bit faster to boot actually).. Is it possible/advised to go ahead and use the built in system updater to upgrade to the latest Catalina from 10.14.6 Mojave where I am now?

I strongly recommend creating an installation flash drive first. If it starts normally then you are safer if you cannot start your current installation. About using the system updater, I always prefer to do a clean install. Edited December 12, 2019 by ludufre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paperbag Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 (edited) Hi I have the same hardware as you except the graphic card, which I have rx570 installed. The audio for mine is not working unless I use HDMI monitor for audio output or bluetooth headset. I wonder do you have encounter this problem before when installing Catalina?

ludufre Posted January 5, 2020 Author Share Posted January 5, 2020 Go back to my SMBIOS and try this. (Place in /EFI/EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched/) SSDT-UIAC.aml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saifuru Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Already try as per advise but still usb type-c and sidecar won't work on SMBIOS iMac 19,1. I switch to iMac 19,2 and only the usb type-c is working but still can't get sidecar to work. I have same motherboard and cpu as yours, but with RX580 gpu. The GPU is working but sometimes during login, wake up and shutdown, the gpu fan spin like crazy for about a minute which freaking me out. Its sound like jet engine or something. I install Mojave on my other NVME (using your guide), same thing happen, usb type-c only working with iMac 19,2 SMBIOS and the system much more stable than Catalina. I think I will use Mojave as my main system while figuring out the problem with Catalina... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I followed the instructions from AppleALC developer. Quote Note: It is necessary to set value layout-id in Devices-Properties or boot arguments. HDEF device locations PciRoot, gfxutil may be used: gfxutil -f HDEF Do not use renaming HDAS to HDEF, B0D3 to HDAU, etc. Disable FixHDA, AddHDMI and UseIntelHDMI. Set Devices → Audio → Inject = NO (Necessarily type string!) So basically remove those Inject and add alcid=1 (or your layout) to boot args.

saifuru Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 (edited) Regarding the Airplay and sidecar issue, I think it has nothing to do with my wifi card. I manage to make all function work using BrcmPatchRAM3.kext. It had something to do with iGPU setting in BIOS. I disable iGPU and set my dGPU as a primary GPU in BIOS because I'm using RX580 as display output. Airplay and sidecar don't work when I set iGPU to disable or auto. It need to set as enable. The problem is, if I set iGPU enable while maintain the dGPU as primary output, Catalina won't boot and the system will restart. Need to find a solution for this.

tomalak007 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Hello, thanks for your guide it was very helpful. I have two issues, no sound and I added a Native wifi/bluetooth card BCM943224PCIEBT2 and the bluetooth works, but not the wifi? Plus when I hit a key to return from sleep it reboots. Any ideas?

tomalak007 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I was able to get sound working by looking at your mojave guide and applying these settings in clover, ordered another Broadcom card and going to see if it was defective.
