Mobility Radeon HD 4650:Full Resolution with QE & CI working on Internal LVDS screen

[PsiX_o]

Hey..

 

Try booting with -v cpus=1

If it boots, then yay! if not the -v will boot in verbose mode meaning the apple bootscreen will be replaced with text. So if it doesn't boot you can tell us where in the text it stops and we will better know how to help you!

 

Hey man it works. I boot it successfully with -v cpus=1. But I can't change the resolution I have only 1024x768 I think and I can't change it. And one more question can I write you a PM to ask you 2,3 questions more not to spam here Thank you!

Good to hear it boots :]

 

Yeah alot of us have problems with this gfx card. If you're happy with just getting the full resolution, just install dongs RadeonHD.kext (google it) It will give you full resolution but not hardware acceleration :/

 

Yeah sure. Go ahead :]

As you on 10.6.3 you need to edit framebuffer in atiframebuffer.kext/contents/macos/

Try searching for the hex string in there and seeing if you get any results. If not use ati-personality.pl to tell you the offsets.

Thank you twisted89 for your reply. i finally found the framebuffers. Since i have installed 10.6.3 the framebuffers are 20 bytes long and not 16 so thats the reason i couldn't search and find it in hex editor. I do the modd to some fb and i believe im 1 step away to get my card working. I think the bootloader cannot start my card because i get a freeze apple logo screen and the laptop seems to be working ( i hear sound if i press buttons, the f12 button works as eject) . So i think i just need the correct bootloader. Also i dont know if i have to put my dev id to ATI4500controler.keTIxt or into ATI4600controller.kext. i try both without any succes.

 

Thanks again

Whith wich Programm can i make the BIOS Dump?

GPUZ says that the Card is not Supported and where can i get the programm called "EVEREST"?

I have a HD4650 1GB id 9498 and use OSX 10.6.7.

My card has 1 x HDMI and 1 x DVI (don't need duallink). Here is my BIOSDump:

The hdmi output works with this hacked ATI*.kext-set (it's from 10.6.6) in which I can see connectortype 0x200 and controlflags 0x204 in the ioreg. Only resolution change / wakeup doesnt work. Does this mean that the hdmi output of the card is actually a DVI port?

 

The hacked ati-kexts use this personality:

Personality: Peregrine
ConnectorInfo count in decimal: 2
Disk offset in decimal 69472
0000000	00  02  00  00  04  02  00  00  00  00  00  00  02  01  04  05
0000010	00  04  00  00  00  01  00  00  00  00  00  00  20  00  02  02

 

I came to these values based on mucha's post #1. Did I miss anything? What do you think:

00 08 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 11 00 00 05
04 00 00 00 14 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 01 01 01

 

HDMI output then looks like this:

I also tried transmitter 01 for hdmi and emitter 02. No changes.

 

My questions are now:

 

- Do I completly take the values that the bios uses? So for encoder 20 and 1e??

- Also with RadeonHD.kext by Dong the screen looks like this. If I disable graphicsenabler, the boot log will stop. So I cannot get any log from RadeonHD. How can I fix this?

- Should I use DACA or DACB for hdmi transmitter?

- Is the row order or the HotplugID order important ?

- If my bios shows 4 connections, but the card really has only 2, do I have to find a personality with 4 ports?

- If resolution change leads into black screen, what values are considered to be wrong?

- Do I have to compile a custom build of kabyl's bootloader with my gfx ids? But they seem to be injected ok. Does the bootloader also inject or overwrite the personalities?

- If the screen remains black after resolution change, is this the same problem as black screen after wakeup from sleep? After wakeup, all other devices seem to work.

Only had a quick look at what you've posted as I don't have much time right now but your card has 3 outputs so I would suggest using a personality that also has 3 outputs instead of 2.

Thanks, I will try it. But the question is, the hacked kexts use the 2-device-personality Peregrine and actually show a working, accelerated display at 1920x1080. So wouldn't it be more simple to enable this already working for resolution changes (and wakeup, same problem I believe?)?

[Nemorosus]

I can't get my bios extracted.

[Funky frank]

I can't get my bios extracted.

Google for "radeonpci.kext bios".

[Nemorosus]

Google for "radeonpci.kext bios".

 

Yeah, gives me some kind of error, did it from the terminal just like it says in that post.

But if i menage to get the bios uploaded, could you guys help me out? I tried every patched text and replaced all boot files, i get the video card recognized and installed as a PCI device, but the Shrike (also listed as pci device) doesn't have a driver installed. I'll would upload an image, but when i take a screenshot it's white

 

P.S.

What files do i need to upload here, to get help, and can somebody make a image tutorial, that would help us annoying noobs stop from writing here? Please! After 3 nights with no sleep, i have lost almost all of my hope.

[Cionniasd]

You are a GENIUS.

Same card of you, so i installed all the necessary and full qe/qi thank you!!!!

i wann ask, i'm using ios 10.6.3, but i want to upgrade to 10.6.7, is this working the same method or another? can i use the same files?

pc efi 10.6 chameleon 747 radeonhd 20/10 and you boot and kexts?

Hello,

 

what can I do if the video bios dump does not show an i2cid value for the LVDS connector?

I have a mobility radeon 4650 in my laptop.

Any ideas?

Kind regards and thanks in advance

[rafirafi]

Thanks,

I was stuck with VGA with my HD4770 Desktop cause of the reducted number of framebuffers in the 10.6.7 iMac update.

Just replacing the personnality of the ATI4800Controller FB (Motmot) with one from ATI4600Controller FB (Flicker) and DVI was back.

Good work, hope you will find a way to build something with all these info.

[Mike85b]

hello there

 

i finally manage to do all steps to this tutorial. but still cant get full qe/ci

My card: mobility radeon hd 530v , dev id 9555 (renamed mobility 4350 )

i had compile chameleon trunk 747 and modified ati.c with name for my card and default framebuffer to shrike ( also peregrine and flicker). so all necessary kexts are loaded ( ATIFramebuffer.kext, ATIRadeonx2000.kext, ATISupport.kext and ATI4600controller.kext). im running SL 10.6.7.

 

also at pci card drivers and framebuffer are loaded (ex. ATY,Shrike )

 

I dont know what im doing wrong and still dont have qe/ci after all necessary kext loaded

 

thanks for any help

Mike

[ytrox]

HI Mucha! can you post to me a dump of atiframebuffer of 10.6.2 if you can(also the method to dump is appreciated obiviusly)?. I can't find a way to dump it (it said me 0 connectorInfo for all framebuffer ). I've seen you have dumped Fb from 10.6.3 and 10.6.2 is similar (20byte). thanks

Ok,

 

these edited personalities work for hdmi out and dvi out, if the calble is plugged in from bootstart:

Personality: Kakapo
ConnectorInfo count in decimal: 3
Disk offset in decimal 69344
0000000	10  00  00  00  10  00  00  00  00  00  00  00  00  10  00  04

EDIT: Edited Kakapo, now works with wakeup/screenres-change on DVI port (HDMI and VGA untested)!!

It seems to me that the order of the ports has to be match the order of the bios dump's ports.

[Lordadmiral Drake]

Okay mucha. I did everything as told in your howto, except for senseid which I just took from your config because radeondump doesnt output it for me. But still no QE/CI / res-change

[Mike85b]

Many thanks to bcc9 for his genius discovery and for his method for finding and editing framebuffer personalities

I was planning to add this to bbc9 topics, but i couldn't add a replay only a new topic in new users lounge is allowed for me (I'm a member since 2006 ),so if a moderator can attach it it's welcome.

Most credit should go to bcc9 (radeondump & tutorial) & Dong (RadeonHD), this was not possible without his finding ,a previous knowledge of bbc9 method with some basic binary editing and terminal skills is a must have.

Sorry for my bad English and my Bad teaching skills, the most important is the idea.

Any additional useful information and feed-back is welcome

The bootlaoder is chameleon rev 747 with modded ati.c with corrected default framebuffer to Shrike and model name for my DeviceId: 0x9480 (Kabyl boot file is no go for me).

 

The Guide (HowTo.rtf outdated ) in the attachements with some usefull files for quick editing

 

I have received many PM from people asking for my patched kext, i have uploaded them with my boot file, remember those files are specific for Mobility Radeon 4650 on a HP Pavilion DV6 series & there is NO guaranty they will work on other models

 

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4SN7VDMK

http://hotfile.com/dl/113477176/da80b51/ATI.zip.html

 

Updates:

 

1- the same method is tested in Mac OS X version 10.6.3 & the lastest update 10.6.7 and i report it's working perfectly for both

 

2- for the 10.6.3 system the personnality is 20 bytes (the SenseID byte is replaced by i2cid & SenseID is 4 bytes);

 

a-the original 10.6.3 Shrike ConnectorInfo:

 

02 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 02 01 00 00 03 00 00 00 
02 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 09 01 00 00 20 01 02 91 02 00 00 00 
00 04 00 00 04 03 00 00 00 01 00 00 10 00 01 90 01 00 00 00

 

b-My modded working 10.6.3 Shrike ConnectorInfo :

 

02 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 12 00 00 96 07 00 00 00 
10 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 10 01 95 06 00 00 00 
00 08 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 01 00 00 20 01 02 90 01 00 00 00

 

3- About the 10.6.7 Update:

 

a-ConnectorInfo are located in ATIFramebuffer.kext for the general combo update (the same as 10.6.6 system)

b-ConnectorInfo have migrated to ATIControlerXXXX.kext for 2011 MBP update (the kernel & ATi Drivers structure are closer to Lion 10.7 than to 10.6.6),

ATIController4600.kext contain only Shrike, Flicker & Gliff ConnectorInfo (which theorically restrict the possible framebuffer to use with a specific controller.kext)

ATIController4800.kext contain only Cardinal,Motmot & Quail ConnectorInfo.

 

The Online guide:

 

A- The Structure of a personality:

 

I'll take Shrike as framebuffer for the demonstration, cause it's used as default by Radeon HD 4670 (M96XT, DevID 0x9488 ) on iMac 10,1 & iMac11,2

which is the closest to the Mobility Radeon HD 4650 (M96, DevID 0x9480) on my board.

 

for Shrike we have by default 3 personalities , one for each connector (3 connectors allowed): port0, port1, port2.

 

02 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 09 01 00 00 02 01 00 03

02 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 09 01 00 00 20 01 02 02

00 04 00 00 04 03 00 00 00 01 00 00 10 00 01 01

 

let's take the first one which is for port 0 :

 

02 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 09 01 00 00 02 01 00 03

 

divide it to 8 parts:

 

02 00 00 00 - 40 00 00 00 - 09 01 - 00 00 - 02 - 01 - 00 - 03

 

Then byte swapped

 

1- ConnectorType : 02 00 00 00 > 0x00000002 - - -

2- ATY,ControlFlags : 40 00 00 00 > 0x00000040 +++

3- Features : 09 01 > 0x0109 +++

4- Unkown : 00 00 > 0x0000 - - -

5- Transmitter : 02 > 0x02 - - -

6- Encoder : 01 > 0x01 - - -

7- HotplugID : 00 > 0x00 - - -

8- SenseID : 03 > 0x03 ++++++

 

- - - > Value not important, but need to be accurate for better result

+++ > Important value, incorrect value == not working personality

 

Detailed info about possible value for each field is list below ( some are confirmed, some only guessed by studying different personalities and need some feed-back

from working system (for me LVDS and VGA value are confirmed)

 

1- ConnectorType;

8- SenseID;

 

 /* SenseLine = (i2cid & 0xf) +1 ,you get  i2cid from bbc9 radeondump */   
  Bits 0-3: Sense Line   
  Bit	4: Use hw i2c flag

 

Now to some practice

 

 

B- Getting the ConnectorType, ATY,ControlFlags,Features, HotplugId and SenseLineId Values:

 

 

You will need :

1- videocard bios dump ( i have used everest for that and renamed it 1002_9480.rom ) ,

2- radeondump tool from bbc9

launch Terminal & type ./radeondump < your_videobios.rom > connector.txt

you will get something like this :

 

	Desktop Mucha$ ./radeondump < 1002_9480.rom 
ATOM BIOS Rom: 
 SubsystemVendorID: 0x103c SubsystemID: 0x3629
 IOBaseAddress: 0x7000
 Filename: br33507.001 
 BIOS Bootup Message: 
HP_Quanta_Jones_Cujo_M96M_DDR3 M96 DDR3 128bit 550e/667m

Connector at index 1 type: VGA (1)
Connector's i2cid: 95
Connector at index 2 type: HDMI-A (11)
Connector's i2cid: 90

 

 

which means:

 

port0 > LVDS=0x00000002 - ControlFlag=0x0040 - Features = 0x09-------------------------HotplugId=0x00 - i2cid=96 > SenseLine = 0x07

You need Dong's RadeonHD.kext , i have used the 10/20/2009 update, edit the info.plist to set the debug to true and verbose level to 2

then delete ATI4600 & ATIFramebuffer from S/L/E (make a back-up first) and install radeonHD reboot (your external VGA,DVI or HDMI screen most be connected)

once on desktop go to Terminal : sudo -s , type your password then dmesg >Encoder.txt

In my case i get as output:

Based upon the above information my SPECIFIC videocard routing is:

 

CRTC0>DIG1>UNIPHYE>LVDS Encoder= 0x00 Transmitter = 0x12

CRTC1>DAC > DACA >VGA Encoder=0x10 Transmitter = 0x00

CRTC1>DIG2>UNIPHYB>HDMI Encoder= 0x01 Transmitter = 0x20 (i don't have a hdmi display to test)

 

Now doing the compilation , my new modded Shrike personalities :

 

02 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 09 01 00 00 12 00 00 07 LVDS

10 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 10 01 06 VGA

00 08 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 01 00 00 20 01 02 01 HDMI

 

This mod allowed me to get both LVDS an VGA display working with Resolution change, QE/CI Extended desktop and Mirroring

I have tested the same mod with Peregrine and i confirm it's also Working.

 

 

D- How to Easy Quick Patch your desired Framebuffer personality (without calculating the adresses and for both i386 and x86_64):

 

 

You should have a hexadecimal editor:

 

1- Download the attached : Sharks_FB.txt Birds_FB.txt and Monkeys_FB.txt,

2- Open the text file select and copy the desired personality hexadecimal code (the one you want to patch),

3- Open ATIFramebuffer.kext and Drag ATIFramebuffer binary to hexadecimal editor,

4- Select : edit>search , in the search fields paste the clipboard content and choose hex value & wrap option,

5- You should find 2 instances of the searched personality: the first one is for x86_64 and the second for i386 (make sure you have only 2),

6- Patch and save your binary, install reboot an ENJOY

 

For Radeon HD 3XXX and prior choose Sharks,

For Radeon HD 4XXX choose Birds,

For Radeon HD 5XXX choose Monkeys.

 

My card drives me crazy

I have done everything, check multible Framebufeers and the only i can get is resolution changes only, no cool effects, no trasparent menu and my opel gl run at maximum 22 frames. I dont know what is going wrong. All Ati kexts are loaded. If someone had that issue please tell me what is going wrong. It is very strange, im system preferrences i can get all native resolutions so ATIRadeonx2000.kext is loaded fine, but the controller i think is going wrong. is any other way to enable qe/ci ?

 

thanks

I think I got something now. Dug up something from an earlier try and booted with PciRoot=1

 

Result was black screen, but system working. I was able to shutdown the laptop by pressing the Power Button first and then hit enter. Unfortunately I currently don't have access to my other Hackintosh to VNC into the system

[rmmcwh]

I have a Diamond Sapphire 5770HD, and OS X 10.6.7 using current Snow Leopard ATI kexts from [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url]. I have tired to follow your steps, using 0xED as the hex editor. I cannot do a search in framebuffer.kext like you indicated, nor can I find the place to make edits. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Thank you for your help.

My solution here: Working 1002 9498 (VGA, HDMI, 2xDVI)

I was now able to VNC into the system after booting with PciRoot=1

I saw that all kexts are loaded and the card is recognized correctly. But not the display itself

I have almost the same progress as you. Though my display is recognized and running at 1600x900 and tagged as active.. But still I have the black backlit display problem..

 

I've injected dual linkinto my dsdt as i read it was needed for high resolution displays. But it didnt help, still black and backlit.

 

I tried the EDID overide guide, but I couldnt complete the guide cause the tags i needed to find wasnt in the files i had to find them in..

 

So I'm pretty much lost for what to do next :]
