1) Boots Monterey. 2) Update kext to latest stable. 3) OC 0.7.9
1) Update kext to latest stable. 2) OC 0.7.0 3) F6 now disables trackpad and F7 cycles through brightness. 4) Moved from DSDT to Modular ACPI patches(Should help more people get Hackintosh working).
1) Airdrop 2) Sleep at times causes Kernel Panic.
Note: This works only on Asus Zenbook UX391 Bios version 304/307. If you have any other model use this Guide
1) Open modGRUBShell.efi
2) Type setup_var 0x562 0x00
1) You can not install macOS directly. You will need to create a VM and install macOS to a disk. Backup and restore the disk to PM981. 2) Sleep does not work. Kernel Panic on wake. 3) Just replace the NVMe with a compatible drive.
The drive reviews that you will find online are for Phison’s E12 NVMe controller, paired with Toshiba’s BiCS3 64L TLC NAND flash. Sometime in early 2020, Silicon Power changed the controller to SMI SM2262EN with Intel TLC NAND flash(presumably 96L) manufactured by Unic or KYEC marked as 06T1TA9D010. This drive performs better than PM981 and has lower power consumption. The drive also works OOB with macOS.
1) The thunderbolt port works when any USB 3.0 plugged into it or by plugging in the Asus Type-C dock at the boot time. 2) Due to lack of Thunderbolt devices I haven't completely able to test it.
