This repo has removed unecesary drivers, integrated many of the fixes into the ssdt. Sticks to generic Kexts, Fixes the SD card reader, Improves battery life by disabling turboboost removes the EFI check. Works 100% with the DW1820A Wifi Card Simplifies and removes many patches from the config.plist into the custom SSDT. Updates all the Kexts to the latest version,

Uses beta arguments to make it update proof Updates to latest Clover released yesterday.

and has been tested upto 10.14.6.

I Hope you find some of it useful.

The only misual change i have done is used a Lighter theme (clover-minimal-inverted) which i prefer and it loads faster.

Compressed this bootpack is just 5.8mb.

Hello.

@ameeno I suggest remove wifi and bt driver, most of people use DW1560. keep the EFI core clear will been great efi.

ameeno commented 5 years ago

Hi Leo,

Thanks for your suggestions!

Many people emailed me directly on GitHub/LinkedIn to ask me where I purchased my DW1820a card & How did i make it working with Hackintosh. (I bought it from Aliexpress $10usd). That card is very hard to make working and I spent many hours with Herve to make it work on Mojave!

DW1560 is used by people use because it is easy to get working, but m.2 Version of DW1560 is like $45-60USD!!!! That's Quite expensive for a $100usd Ebay Laptop Hackintosh (The T440P)

So I will make a second config.plist & kext files for the DW1820a Card based on your suggestion. But put a folder for Dw1820A related alternatives & Kexts OK?

Hope that helps :)

@ameeno I'm currently trying out the repo with the DW1820a bought from the same supplier (thus far not been able to get it to work), and one small note for your release is that users may need to disable the card during the installation process (else they will suffer kernel panic/boot loop).

Thanks for your work, and of course also to @jloisel!

Hello, This repo should not block/panic the card on install, as the patches are rather simple, (But specific to the t440p laptop)

We are renaming the device ID of the wifi card,, forcing it to appear in the IODeviceRegistry under PCI, and having apple load its own default driver.

It is possible that there are multiple versions of the card, some of which are not working fully according to other forum posters.

I will default to a Non-DW1820A patched version, with an option to use patched files in my repository.

Hope this helps :)

jloisel commented 5 years ago

Thanks!

I'm going to merge it with this repo.
