Perfecting SB3 hackintosh? #1

Hi!

Can I kindly ask you to help me out, or at least publish your EFI when you're ready?

I've also got myself a Surface Book 3 15 i7/RTX recently, with the goal of building almost golden Hackintosh laptop. I've downgraded UEFI per your guide, installed Sonoma with OC 1.0.1 (EFI), it works almost fine, but now I have two issues: • USB-C display output does not work for me. I've tried multiple boot args and different configs related to Intel graphics, none of them helped :( • Bluetooth does not work at all, even though Bluetooth USB Host Controller is there in macOS System Information. Have you encountered them? If not, I think your EFI could help me alleviate them, I can compare configs and see what differs.

And a question: why do we need hibernate mode 25 in the first place? What happens if you keep macOS at default sleep settings? It's going to drain battery when the lid is closed? Drain it like laptop is open and running, or slowly?

Thanks (:

@Jonathunky Sorry for replying late, I'm awfully busy right now. As I don't have the hardware, I'm afraid I'm unable to test USB-C display output. Bluetooth is working fine here, but you have to make sure you use https://github.com/odlp/bluesnooze/ to fix Bluetooth after sleep/hibernate.

And a question: why do we need hibernate mode 25 in the first place?

The Surface devices (all of them) do not sleep at all, they only turn off the display when you close the lid. So the battery runs out overnight. With hibernate mode 25, the laptop saves the content of the RAM to disk and shuts off completely, thus with no battery drain at all even for weeks or months. The downside is that it takes around 15-20 seconds to fully wake up.

I'll upload my EFI for the SB3 one of these days, but I'll probably publish my EFI for the SL3 beforehand, as I'm using it daily at the moment.
