ethan9482 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Gotcha. When I open Kext Wizard it just freezes and when I use Kext Drop it just doesn't do anything... am I missing something again? Not experienced that, in kext wizard are you changing the target drive to the usb? Both programs will do the s/l/e kexts but to put them into clover folder you have to just manually drag and drop then repair permissions on the disk. SP2, 10.9.4, Used Pokenguy's guide to install 10.9.4 to my SP2 today and, for the most part, the installation went well. I completed every step in the guide and was up and running. I completed the last few steps where I installed Clover to the SSD but now am getting stuck with the "missing bluetooth controller" and can no longer boot into OS X. I have tried safe mode with fake ID and everything else I could think of on this forum. The only thing that may have thrown it off is that I used the dsdt.aml & ssdt.aml files from macspike's file pack. Again, it seemed like everything worked fine until I installed Clover to my SSD and finished the final couple of steps. Thoughts? Boot off the usb and copy the files from your USB clover folder to the SSD clover folder - would assume if the work on USB then a duplicate on SSD should work? Sorry I am SP1 and not great with this but that may help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dado3003 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Hey guys So I finally managed to get it all installed a found a couple of things that weren't mentioned in the guide that helped me, so I will list them up as soon as I get a chance. I am still having an issue though. The only way for me to start osx is by using these under graphics: injectededid, loadvbios and as fake id: 0x1660009). Is that something that is going to compromise the stability of the system in the long run? If not, how can I make those options permanent in Clover so that I do not need to manually input them any time? Also, is there a way to not having to go through the unix boot up lines but just have the apple logo there? Cheers Dav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found that once I had got it all on to the SSD etc, finished the install and restarted if I then just picked the new drive it loaded like normal? You can set those options to be the default in clover configurator I think if they absolutely need to be in each time. Sorry it's been a while since I did the Mavericks partition so a bit vague now.

dado3003 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Also, when I try to put the surface to sleep it goes black screen with the cursor still on and doesn't actually go to sleep. I thought this issue had been fixed no? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles400 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Hi, I'm beginning to notice that under os x when watching youtube, bbc iplayer videos etc, that my SP1s fans become really loud whereas under windows I never experienced this issue. Does anyone know how to adjust the fan speed under os x. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dado3003 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 One more thing that is bothering me is the red startup screen with the SURFACE logo in the middle. Is there a way to revert that red to black again? Cheers Davide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethan9482 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 No idea, I do know what you mean but mine is black again and don't remember what I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
three2five Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 (surfaceosx) Have been trying for hours to get my surface pro stable. Current setup: Surface pro in official docking station. Half of the reboots I get distorted sound. Using the search function I found the suggestion to use the clover configuration tool to manually enter the Custom UUID but I guess that I am doing something wrong. I have tried the following UUID's: - The one in system profiler (which seems to be quite random on every boot, tried the one which was active when I had correct working sound) - The UUID which clover shows during boot. So, my question is the following: which UUID should I be using? And when entering the Custom UUID, should I disable the "Inject System ID" as suggested earlier? Or is there any other fix for the stuttering sound? Not sure if it is related or not, but I have followed the instructions for getting facetime etc. working but couldn't get that working either. Thought that it might be related to having a different UUID on every reboot. On the last boots my system is also sometimes crashing (aka, reloading the GUI) when I try to open the system profiler. When the GUI is restarted (within a second, which messes with my monitor arrangement) I suddenly am able to start the system profiler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dado3003 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Hey guys, has anyone noticed that the trackpack really acts up? As in the mouse pointer kind of goes all over the place and jerks away in weird directions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know how to adjust the fan speed under os x. Thank you. this is due the extremely high resolution (the hd4000 isn't ideal for retina resolutions) use the native 1920x1080 resolution P.s. to those having issues on Sp1 double check that you are using the dsdt and ssdt from the root of the v0.4 repack.

schinkengott Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 There arent dsdt/ssdt in the root. dsdt are in toefipartition and in dsdt/ssdt folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethan9482 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 There arent dsdt/ssdt in the root. dsdt are in toefipartition and in dsdt/ssdt folder There are 2 sets. Think I read in another post it's not the efi/partition you use its the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schinkengott Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Im already using the dsdt/ssdt from its Folder. Everything is working but USB, if i Boot with my wifikey it Works, if i plug it out and plug a USB pen drive in, it doesnt work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethan9482 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I am using an updated kext for yosemite. Will check mine and see if I get the same problem. In the meantime if you want to try it, find the 10.10 guide on here for the surface pro and I think the link was on page 3. Will check as soon as I can.

JahStories Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 it could even be a driver or chipset related (usbwifi) try to remove the kext and test usb port and sdcard slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schinkengott Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 again, i have two surfaces here. the first one is mine, it got a usb wifi key with its driver, and the second one is completely fresh, nothing installed but the guides kexts. and on booth it doesnt work.

dado3003 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Regarding the issue that the usb port only works if I turn on the surface with a usb key plugged in - here's a boot log of what it does if the key is not plugged in. Does this help? http://pastebin.com/0LrAC5ii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dado3003 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Has anybody noticed that the dsdt and ssdt from the root folder are a ton better (brightness support for 10.9.4 etc.) but they introduce some flickering in the display which is not there is one uses the ones from 'to efi partition'. Wondering if anyone has figured out a solution for this? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
