To latinmcg: thanks latinmcg. How can i patch applertc.kext ? Not present in kexts here in latest 9dec files?

 

To jeffc: thanks! Is it necessary to install Enoch included? Not newer versions? Why no more chimera? Thanks!

Install only if u want hdmi audio. I had tried everything from dsdt edits to enabling hdmi audio with bootloaders. The only ones that had recognized was with Enoch latest 2064/2137. After hdmi audio is recognized you can install whatever bootloader you like.

Yes, it works! Even patching applertc works now. Sleep works... audio through hdmi works, but not on the fly (i mean i have to reboot to let my computer recognize hdmi audio). Thanks!! The only thing missing is sd card now, it seems...

are u using ioaudio/applehda in this package? Do u have g53sw?

no i have g73sw, same as you. Yes i installed audio/applehda in 9dec package.

 

Another question jeffc...is there a G73SW package from you (like this 9dec one) updated for snow leopard? I need to use snow leopard for some applications and i would love to use this laptop, with latest kexts (like applehda audio, not voodoohda, usb3, etc). Is it possible to use 9dec package in latest snow leopard 64 bit? Or Have you thought to build an "updated" snow leopard package for it? Thanks a lot jeff!!

I'm not having much luck with the Dec 9 kexts. Keyboard and Trackpad don't work with the enoch boot loader, and with the kexts I lose Audio, Battery and USB 3.... I still don't get backlit keyboard after sleep or HDMI Audio. :-/ I'll stick with the Nov 21 ones for now :)

 

EDIT: This might seem like a long shot, but here is my dev list from windows... is this the same as you guys? http://oi46.tinypic.com/2uo3m2o.jpg

The only thing that's different is AR9285, my is 002A and yours is 002B. PCI List.tiff

 

This package only works on fresh install or you can restore the original kext that's differ from Nov 21/Dec 9 package but i have not tried it. There's like 18 kext's in Nov 29, 9 kext's in Dec. 9. So if you did not backup original kext's after install, i guess you will have to reinstall. There's a 10.8.2 image out there floating around. OS X 10.8.2 Mountain Lion bootable USB for Intel PCs That way you don't have to deal with combo update/or extract kext's you need from it!

EDIT : This is the correct snow file...sorry for the mistake!

That dec. package is for Lion install.

 

Do some research to get some stuff working if you can't find snow package.

Speedstep is same as before AICPUPM v. 146

 

DSDT.aml has been same as old 10.6.8 but with some edits for audio.

 

I am sure you know where to get Nvidia drivers!

 

Good Luck with snow!

Sorry for mistake jeff , now i corrected the file in my previous original post.

The problem is i am not able to correct 10.6.8 applehda with such informations you gave me, unfortunately.

 

Where's AppleHDA from 10.6.8? If I remember right, there should be AppleACPIPlatform and IOPCIFamily Rollback to make these kext's work in 10.6.8 without KP. You got a early package that i was working on before the final package.

here you are...i found this unmodified applehda and ioaudiofamily for 10.6.8 (vanilla, unmodified). I don't know anything else...do you have a snow partition somewhere or an image to test on a partition or ext hd partition?

 

I don't have snow, but i could try to edit those files with in applehda for you to test! DO you have snow?

Yeah it would be good to get the woofer going... the sound is a bit tinny without it.

 

An update on my progress with the Dec 9 files....

 

I managed to get the system up and running mostly, that 10.8.2 image was a big help... I noticed that it boots with Clover! No black screen?! I wonder what I am doing wrong...

 

Basically, everything works with Dec 9 but:

 

Backlit (even after sleep)

Card Reader (which we expected)

And... that damn battery icon!! Idk why it won't appear...

 

I had to remove the battery to get my USB 3 port working too. HDMI Audio works!

 

If I could just get the battery working.. that would be awesome.. then it's just backlit keys for me.

yes of course! i have a partition with a 10.6.8 snow that is "working" (with some problems, with voodoohda actually and some lockups, etc)

 

Try and let me know! 10.6.8 ALC 269 AppleHDA.kext.zip In the future when you have to reinstall from scratch (10.6.3 usb install). Make sure after you install 10.6.3,

delete the ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext from IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext plugins folder in S/L/E. Repair disk permission/update cache, restart, install 10.6.8 combo update before restarting use kext wizard to apply your kext's.

Glad you have HDMI Audio working!! Have you tried to boot into windows and boot back for backlit keyboard? I had tried applesmartbattery but gave me kp. Looking for new kext's.

I will try that for the backlit keyboard and report back. Thanks for all your effort Jeff, I really appreciate it. Yeah smart battery gave me a KP too. :/

hi, unfortunately it does not work. gray volume icon. does applehda.kext need to be patched for alc269 perhaps? i don't know...

 

forgot to tell you to change your dsdt/HDEF section to layout id 269

if you find those fixes, let me know.
