Do you guys know how to create your own "SSDT-EHCx_OFF"?

Currently I don't have "SSDT-EHCx_OFF" and system still bootable. 

it doesn't have usbinjectall.kext and usbports.kext.

should I create it? 

 

I have z87 mobo, i5-4570, RX580

 

 

 

You can take SSDT-EHCx_OFF in ACPI samples OpenCore. But you shall understand for what it, read the comment there.

Hi, I just realized we have same motherboard, Z87-UD4H

Do you mind share your "EFI" file? I can change Serial number, UUID by myself. 

my system still not stable especially YouTube audio choppy after sleep. 

 

For BIOS setting, I pretty much follow the OpenCore guide, but it didn't mention the following

 

"XHCI Mode" - I have "XHCI Hand-off" Enabled, don't know what's the difference. 

"Secure Boot"

"Super IO Configuration"

"Intel Processor Graphic" - I have RX580, so this is Enabled.

"Intel Processor Graphics Memory Allocation" 

"DVMT Total Memory Size"

 

Thank you, if you can share your set up and file would be awesome.

Does this look right for native NVRAM to you all? Specifically the first two lines.

That doesn't tell you anything about if you have working native NVRAM or not, you need to use the normal terminal method to test native NVRAM.

Just did, all is well. Thanks!

 

I was just a little confused on why it deletes the first two items UI Scale and Boot-Args. Im guessing that's by design I'm just trying to educate myself.

In your config.plist, you have NVRAM->Block->Item 0 and 1, those Block items are deleting..

Leaving this here for anyone who's got a well zipped up EFI and good knowledge of what needs to happen to have a good system but cant boot into Catalina.

 

I discovered I couldn't get in if I had any SATA ports enabled in bios. I disabled them and scoped out everything. All seemed well.

 

After a day or so I found adding AppleAHCIPortHotplug.kext prevented OC from having a panic. Thats all!

AppleAHCIPortHotplug.kext.zip

 

Heh, this broke. Couldn't recreate it when I tried again though it did help someone else.

 

This might be too off topic to continue here but any advice is welcome otherwise!

 

Short version again: SATA ports enabled causes a panic and reboot right at the start of the progress bar. AHCI enabled/disabled has no effect.

Release version of OC? I’ve never seen anyone have this in a hackintosh ever, regardless of hardware or bootloader...

This makes me feel less crazy. OC version has no effect. Next up, roll back bios version.

 

UPDATE: BIOS rollback did nothing.

Hi, I have weird issue since catalina. My bios suddenly becomes a black screen I cant enter my bios settigs. The problem is in both opencore and clover. In clover every boot was causing black screen. I succesfully managed to switch opencore and its nvram reset option fixed that black screen issue but after few reboots I'm getting black screen error again when error occurs my bios also removes opencore from boot selection part. Only way to access it again reflashing my nvram with a bios tool. 

I have never experianced that kind of issue before on mojave. 

Device: Asus FX553VD/GL553VD i-7700hq. 

Here is my opencore files.

OpenCoreGL553VD.zip

Sorry, I think I wasn't so clear about my problem so after repeatedly tryied now I can explain my problem more clearly.

I can use opencore with OSX without problem with disable variable write and legacy nvram.

I can use windows directly booted from bios as normally.

But if I boot windows from OpenCore my boot entries duplicates itself. On that time I cant access bios getting black screen. 

In my conclusion my when I boot windows from opencore my bios rewrites boot entries to nvram again and when I try to open bios

duplicate entries makes a conflict so it becomes black screen. It's happening on clover as well. I need help.

My Last Opencore Build: OC.zip

Hello,

just an easy question : 

The ThirdPartyDrives quirk does something about NVME power managent ?

I remember when i had a NVME drive on my laptop power consumption was huge even on idle while on the same laptop using a normal m.2 sata disk the power consumption was as expected. 

 

Being a laptop i'm concerned about battery duration 

 

Thanks

Mattia

That's what i did. Apply vendor patches to enable native features for third party drivers ... Apple original NVME has power management while it is not working on third party NVME .. what i'm asking is if this patches implement some kind of power management also for third party NVME drives ...

Hi, I have an annoying issue switching from clover to OpenCore 0.5.3 with Catalina 10.15.1 on ryzentosh 3700x x570 I aorus pro wifi + Vega 64

 

I have checked with someone my basic  EFI folder and it seems good but when I choose shut down the computer, right at the moment when the last power is going out the computer just start up back...

 

any ideas? been following the guide with shutdown fix and all. no changes.

 

I know sleep is broken on Catalina, but if I can't put my computer to sleep I need it to shut down at least.

 

I also have some minor issues with picker and nvram behavior but these can wait...

Fixed it. I was using the old IntelMausiEthernet instead of IntelMausi and that threw it for a loop. In the process though I now found the correct AHCIPortInjector for my board vs Generic so thats cool.

Switched from Clover to OC, things work smooth for normal boot.

The one thing that does not work at all is booting into recovery. The image refuses to load and I get an memory allocation error.

I never ran into this with Clover, Clover always booting fine into recovery, using the AptioMem efi.

Tried all different variations with the quirks and followed this guide as well:

https://khronokernel-2.gitbook.io/opencore-vanilla-desktop-guide/extras/kalsr-fix

With that I came up with a slide value of Slide=128 in the boot menu. While that helps, it still does not create enough memory for the recovery image to boot.

It seems there are no more options I can try. I would be happy about any further feedback where to look for a solution.

 

One note: to even to attempt loading the image, i have to enable 

 

AvoidHighAlloc = true (seems needed to even to attempt the load the recovery image, if false i get an error that not supported, and loading the image is not even started.

 

The other quirks if have set

  • AvoidRuntimeDefrag = true

  • DevirtualiseMmio = false (early boot failure if true)

  • DisableVariableWrite = false

  • EnableSafeModeSlide = true

  • EnableWriteUnprotector = true

  • ProvideCustomSlide = true

  • SetupVirtualMap = true

  • ShrinkMemoryMap = false (early boot failure if true)

Hi, I wrote earlier this year to have some support for moving to OpenCore but I managed to make it work by myself. Now I'm having a strange problem.

 

When I SHUTDOWN my pc(Lifebook e744 i5-4300m) and turn on again my trackpad needs 1 more finger to work (2 fingers for moving cursor,3 for scrolling, 4 for the swipe pages on macOS). 

The only way to fix this is to RESTART my pc and then the trackpad works perfectly.

I'm currently using VoodooPS2Controller + VoodooInput from acidanthera. Did someone else get any problem like this?

 

I've attached my OC folder.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

OC.zip

 

Hi, no one seems to have answered my problem, and I wanted to add some information:

- I still got problems with the trackpad recognizing one finger more in a fresh boot
- When my pc returns from sleep sometimes the trackpad would not work.

- Without complete DSDT patching, my pc won't boot.

 

I don't know what to do, probably it's smth related to DSDT patching, but I don't know what to look after.

 

I've attached the OC folder I'm using right now.

 

UPDATE:

When cold booted the verbose output spams: "AppleMultitouchHIDEventDriverV2: checkNTDeviceAvailable() Building NT without Z2init", and the trackpad doesn't work. When rebooted it no longer spits out the error like hell and the trackpad works perfectly

 

 

Hope to get some help :)

I can't make the audio work. I think i have to find the appropriate layout from here https://github.com/acidanthera/applealc/wiki/supported-codecs

Is there a way to try different layouts without reinstalling the os from scratch with opencore?

 

This is the only thing i have to edit right?

That SHOULD be it. For layout-id say...7...put <07> and hit enter.

No.

I will post on this thread because you all seem much informed than the average .. What does it take to implement power management for non native NVME disks ? Do you think is "just" a patch to some kexts or something more complex ?

I'm asking around for this feature since when i noticed NVME disk is really more "expensive" for my battery than a normal sata ssd in MacOS but not on Linux or Windows ..

 

Thanks

Mattia
