I tried version 4200 too, but still the same.  :(

It is not a clover bug.

Clover installes DeviceProperties protocol and inform boot.efi about injected properties.

It works in current Clover else thousand users can't boot system.

EFI_GUID gDevicePropertiesGuid = {

  0x91BD12FE, 0xF6C3, 0x44FB, {0xA5, 0xB7, 0x51, 0x22, 0xAB, 0x30, 0x3A, 0xE0}
};
But device properties are absent in your report. Because of what? May be your osmosis prevent this?

Does Clover actually use the EFI_DEVICE_PATH_PROPERTY_DATABASE_PROTOCOL for injection? I thought it created a flattened property DB ("EFI string").

iirc it only implements the function that outputs the flat database. I think there is also some code to hassle with the flat database as one can inject an "EFI string" (how I hate this term...), though Clover sets own stuff nevertheless...

I have two chips, one with an osmosis, and the other with a regular firmware. I changed the chip, But all without changes. It started around with the release of update 10.12.5. However, with osmosis, injection, still working fine.

Thousands users installed 10.12.6 and 10.13 and have no problems with injection.

See anywhere DarwinDumper reports by different users and folder "Device properties".

The only problem I seem to have since r4202 is that nvidia injection does not work in both Sierra as High Sierra DP9 anymore (black screen, display not recognized).

It's not a big deal because I don't actually need graphics injection, other than proper memory report (2047MB without injection, 2048MB with injection thanks to Sherlocks)

In r4205 nvidia injection is fine:

Weird.

 

Ok, so:

 

My Optiplex 790 automatically POST to the PCIe card when plugged in. There's no BIOS setting to change the POST behaviour. It's either iGPU or PCIe card when plugged in. With a little workaround I can however POST to the HD3000 WITH PCIe card plugged in, but this also requires a monitor to be attached to the HD3000 to mark it as active and both the iGPU as well as the PCIe card will be active in macOS then. This apparently breaks nvidia injection since r4202.

 

(^ is the only way to make the HD3000 working to get AirPlay functioning without the need of taking the PCIe card out all the time)

On clover 4200 my macOs partition boots fine. After updating to clover 4208, when I select to boot the macOs partition, I got a black screen and nothing happens, no disk activity, nothing. Something happened between these two revision. Can someone help me please ?

That can be a BUG in 4208 ( kext folders with OS X Version name not loaded!) for my unterstanding.

Seems to not happen if kext are in only one kext folder  other (no oS X version specific) folder .... so maybe an workaround to use only kext  folder  other

Here is my debug.log if someone wants to look into it. I've also noticed that I can't go into clover options menu, it makes my computer freeze.

Thank you for the report, I know where's the 'issue' and will refine it now.

Yeah Their 'issue' only occurs when they use Other folder as a general kext injection, and in previous version InjectKextList only be generated for unsupported newer macOS once(for speed).
