Original MacBook Retina 2014 13" Iris 5100 - Black Screen (with Backlight) after replacing Logic Board (same year, just faster processor with more RAM)

Hi,

 

I'm trying to fix an original MacBook, but the defect I'm facing seems way more the ones I used to had when I was hackintoshing my PCs.

 

Had one of those: https://everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core-i5-2.6-13-mid-2014-retina-display-specs.html

Replaced the logic board for one of those: https://everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core-i5-2.8-13-mid-2014-retina-display-specs.html

 

Everything works perfectly with an external monitor, but the internal Display does not.

  • Does not powerup immediatly
  • Powerup (Apple Logo + backlight in the front) after the boot process
  • Never gets an image, just backlight

 

Inside the Console, I can see some errors. Will paste here later.

 

Any ideas from the Hackintosh community?

 

All the best, 

Thank you.

It's a big problem that it doesn't work with the built-in screen, a friend of mine tried hard to solve this problem, but I don't know if he's solved it now, I'll ask him for you.
