Hello everybody. Firstable, thanks to Kogen Mantis for this work. And everybody else for the invaluable info.

 

Don´t know why, i can´t flash my T420 with the modded bios 83ET76WW (1.46) Nothing seems to be done. Anyone can help me?

 

 

Thanks a lot

well. trifero - not sure why you cant flash bios. first download the standard Lenovo 1.46 and flash that. then try the modded version.

 

bad news though for me. my T420 mobo just died on me. so i will probably retire it since it is out of warranty and it is a employer-provided box ... maybe get a newer model (T450?)...

Thanks, tluck, for your quick reply. Really don´t know why i can´t reflash. I have already the 1,46. I can´t reflash with the original BIOS 1.46 cause the utility says that I have already that version.

When I try to apply the modded flash, running flash.bat as administrator, the command line windows calls WINUPPT.exe -s and then close then windows.

 

Thanks

Hi everybody,

 

I have a T420 (HD3000 &1368x766 display & v1.46 bios). I have tried to follow this guide to install OS X El Capitan but I must confess I am a complete beginner. I have already struggled to install OS X but I am stuck in the post-installation steps. I would greatly appreciate some help.

So far, I have done the following :

_ I successfully installed clover on HD and replaced the EFI\BOOT and EFI\CLOVER on the HD by the USB ones.

_ I made a mistake at the next step : I tried to run the bash script from a USB stick (my EFI on the HD was hidden due to a reboot and, at that time, I didn't know how to mount it). The script reported a lot of errors and the kext didn't show in the /Library/Extensions folder. I even made things worse (do not kick me) by manually putting the required kexts in /Library/Extensions... at this point I decided the best option was to get some sleep.

_ Today, I manually removed the kexts I put in in /Library/Extensions. Then I figured out how to access to the hidden EFI on the HD and launched the bash script from there. This time the script reports that the differents kexts have been installed in /Library/Extensions but after the "sleep 20" step it reports the following type of error a multiple time for every kext :

"Can't open CFBundle for /Library/Extensions/FakeSMC.kext/Contents/Plugins/._ACPISensors.kext"

What should I do ?

@tinuvie - 

 

well you can just remove the garbage files in /Library/Extensions run something like this

 

sudo rm  /Library/Extensions/FakeSMC.kext/Contents/Plugins/._ACPISensors.kext

or

sudo find /Library/Extensions -name ._\* -delete

 

it might be better for you to copy the zip contents to the  HD in say ~/Downloads 

then run the _kext-install.bash script from there. rerunning the script is OK  as it will just remove the previous stuff.

Thanks so much, removing the garbage and then launching the script from ~Downloads did the trick. I got the same exact report as the one tluck posted a few pages ago.

My first boot from the HD UEFI was successful ! This is a great work you did there guys !

I am just missing the wifi. I guess I need to replace the intel one with a compatible one. What wifi card would you advise me ? If possible one which would work out of the box.

> Actually the list of what is working seems to be endless - the build is so solid that I've even managed to plug an external Nvidia GTX 760 GPU (through ExpressCard slot) ...
 
this sounded really interesting, so I decided to give it a go myself.
 
BoM:
 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA8RU3967552(PE4C-EC060A V3.0 - eGPU PCIe x16 interface for ExCard x1 connecter)
 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500384(ZOTAC GeForce GT 740 ZT-71006-10BB 2GB 128-Bit DDR3 PCIe 3.0)
 - random 20pin ATX power supply I had from an old computer
 
after a few initial missteps, I realized the DSDT edit mentioned above was to revert the change of the expresscard port of SLOT -> XHC1, and instead replace the name SLOT with GFX0. then everything just worked OTB.
 
initial benchmarks with Diablo III seems to show that this eGPU runs at ~50 fps (at high graphics settings), vs. ~20 fps with HD3000 IGPU (with low graphics settings).
 

 

thanks @plesho!

 

 

just a quick update in case anyone was following along at home:

 

while the GFX0 card (NVIDIA GT 740) worked OTB for running normal apps, it didn't support CUDA and wasn't being detected correctly by Adobe (which were largely my reasons for wanting this originally), Cinebench, etc.

 

after installing the latest NVIDIA webdriver (currently 346.03.04b02 at http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/306535-nvidia-web-driver-updates-for-el-capitan-update-12022015/)& CUDA driver, those issues were fixed, and I felt I was seeing performance improvements also

 

(to enable the GPU in After Effects & Premiere CS6 required a quick edit to a text file in each to add to the supported GPU list. google for the details.)

@tluck I got a replacement bluetooth dongle from a T430, I mounted it in the original slot. Sadly MacOS doesn't recognize it as a bluetooth dongle.

 

I guess I need to modify/patch the dsdt.aml to change it Vendor & Product ID, but I never did that before... And as there are so many different tools out there can you please give some advice which tools and howto's to use?

 

I'ld really like to learn how to do so, because since I installed MacOS I couldn't use my UltraBay Battery... And I guess that could be fixed too!

But I'm still interested to get my UltraBay Battery back into duty...

 

 

mircsicz , thank you so much! Worked like a charm for me.

Hi. I have some questions about temperature of my T420 with i5 2520m. When i watch 1080p video on youtube or work with powerful software, temperature is above 75 degrees and up to 85 degrees. It normal? Notebook is clean and have new thermal paste. In CPU burn i got temperature 93 degrees. Now while I editing this post I have temperature about 47-48 degrees.

And I have some trouble with performance. Sometimes it so many lags. 1080p 60fps video on youtube lags. When I launch Word 2016, Intellij IDEA, airmail and chrome, I have few seconds latency in text input! It very hard to programming. It normal? I use 7200rpm 320gb HDD. Time to replace it with SSD?

@Xsmile2008

 

the temperature seems about right for high CPU - i see the same thing for heavy use. somethings i push the ThinkVantage Blue button to force the fan to run at maximum speed if am doing a lot of CPU intensive work. There are a few Fan control programs that can provide more linearity on heat vs speed.  i use Mac Fans Control.

 

Well on Disk issue,  i will say once you run from an SSD you will never want to go back to spinning disk! my lenovo T420 cold boots to login in under 2 seconds vs 20-30 seconds.  I run VMware a lot and there is no contest. i am not sure IO wait what is causing your system lags or not.

Do you have lags when watching 1080p60fps video on youtube? Why it need so much cpu resources. CPU load is about 170-230% (full load 1-2 threads of 4). Youtube is not use GPU for video rendering?

I turn on developers features in chrome and see this

post-828455-0-68006000-1450140846_thumb.png

Why it use only 5mb of VRAM for 1080p60fps?

@pabragin - well i can post a T420s dsdt with some of the same changes i made on the T420 going to El Capitan. which is about changing EHC1 and EHC2 names and removing some _PRW calls from HDEF and IGBE... but i don't know anything about USB3 on that box... what is the reason for wake in the logs?

As you said before it is looks like on USB troubles, because I found this in logs: "Wake reason: EHC2". USB 3.0 controller, that used in thin this notebook is NEC with device id 0194. I'm noob in hackintosh, so really need your help tluck  :)

 

Dont sure what logs do you need, so I took system.log and my lspci.

@trifero - glad all is well. This box does work quite well for OS X . my original T420 recently died on me, so i just bought a slightly broken one as a replacement on eBay for about $75. now after combing a few parts it is back to fully functional unit ... I replaced a cracked low res screen (and inverter cable) with a high res (and corresponding cable) unit, and now it almost as good as new! For nearly 2 years - had a few bumps early on - the T420 has been as reliable and stable for me as my wife's macbook air is for her. 

 

I am keeping an eye on the newer Skylake based boxes coming out because at some point a newer faster platform will be nice... but that's off-topic here :)

Great thread. I'll preface this by saying I have a T520 but I managed to get this installed without any issues by following the instructions in the first post. My T520 is sitting in one of the 'advanced' docking stations with the 5 video ports and I am using only the DP ports to 2 external monitors. This is a dual boot system with 10.11.2 on the mSATA and and Win 7/64 is on the other SSD drive. The DVD was swapped for a 2TB drive. I have 16 GB RAM and an Atheros 928x OSX compatible wifi card that was whitelisted in a mod BIOS.

 

At one point before I tried customizing the config.plist with Clover Config app, I had both monitors working flawlessly. But something changed and now I only see the Dell 3011. How do I fix that? Also, I assume the T420 to be very similar to the T520 but what if anything should I look to customize for the 520... DSDT, audio, graphics, etc...? Should I just boot without the DSDT references and let Clover figure it out or create a new T520 DSDT? Is there a way to get a higher resolution on the Clover boot menu? Mine seems to be 800x600 and does not change even if I mod that section in the GUI under Clover Config.
