Ikyo75 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Which USB adapter do you recommend using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JahStories Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 you can use whatever adapter you want, just look for an osx compatible one. someone is using one of those small usb3 hubs with ethernet, as before, just look for a compatible one.

Ikyo75 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Looking to do another group buy on the Touch-base drivers. I am seeing if there is any interest on the TonyMac forums too. Maybe we can get the price even lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uhoh Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 (surface1osx) Very odd, this one. All of the sudden this morning, and for no reason I can discern, Clover's boot partition selector no longer shows up when I turn on my Surface. I reinstalled Clover, rebooted, but it remains gone. Anyone see this before, or better yet, any ideas on how to fix it? Never mind, it's back. No idea why but it works now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caleidosCope Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 (surface1osx) ... insn't there a "Dave" somewhere, waiting to get paid for the wifi-driver?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikyo75 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I thought he got paid for the original ones already? This would be a new group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minimojoman Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 So is the newest mavericks update safe to install on the surface pro 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minimojoman Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 oh also, are you going to add the bit with getting imessage and facetime working correctly in the guide at the beginning JahStories?? I received the ew-7811un usb wifi and it works great!! Although the blue blinking light is quite obnoxious!! :-) BTW Do the facetime cameras work correctly on the Surface Pro 1? Because mine seem to be very high contrast! (this is all probably in the bug list) sorry I am lazy :-P also if you havent dont already do you have the link to the bug list on the guide too??

Ikyo75 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (surfaceosx) I have put the NullEthernetInjector.kext on the Surface, but it still isn't showing up as an interface to add. When I look in the about this Mac, it says there are not any ethernet interfaces. I also tried putting the ssdt file in as ssdt-2.aml and no luck with that. ***Update*** I found the correct KEXT to use, but I am still getting an error about my machine.

minimojoman Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I cant even find the guide or the kext for nullethernetinjector.. where is the kext?? I downloaded the zip from his site, but there are a bunch of files in it and no kexts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikyo75 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 You don't want to use the injector. Make sure to use the NullEthernet.Kext and you should be fine to get it installed.

MetalFishX Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (surface2pro) Hi! I have a "SECURITY" concern that is killing me! We are using generated serial numbers, that some times are the same right? So let's say two guys have the same Serial and using their AppleID, sync their information with iCloud, when you do that, you need to validate the computer, you need to give permissions. So here the question is, aren't we opening the doors for hackers to steal our information? You have all synced based on a serial number!!! I think this is scary and super dangerous, isn't it?

minimojoman Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 ok so in case anyone else is wondering... to get app store access 1. I downloaded the above linked zip for nullethernet posted in post #1064. 2. I used kext drop to install the nullethernet.kext from the "release" folder in the zip (while booted without caches + injected kexts) 3. I deleted all connections in system preferences/network 4. I deleted the networkinterfaces.plist from HD/Library/Preferences/System Configuration folder 5. I ran clover Configurator and edited my serial number in the smbios tab to be my actual macbook air's serial number. 5. Rebooted Now my appstore/imessages is working, although I have no idea if they will stop working like some say.. but so far so good.. hope this helps anyone.

JahStories Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 @MetalFishX it's not an issue, if you are right, it could be possible even with real macs just by knowing the serials... but i don't think so, apple will not register already used serials and that's one of the things that make many users have troubles accessing iCloud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalFishX Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 @JahStories Hmm, I hope not. But I used a the default serial and I was able to get into my iCloud, but when I did, I was asked to authorise "this computer" as usual, and I did but the thing is "what is involved into that authorisation?" I guess serial number is primarily needed... It's scaring also because they relate "everything" to the serial number, even for stolen computers Apple Stores and resellers does that, that's the way they use for tracking... So based on that I was thinking about how this affect also with hackers... I don't know, just in case I have deleted my whole iCloud content and nothing is in sync...

uhoh Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 @MetalFishX I'm pretty sure that the computer's hardware serial is - if at all - only a minor factor in iCloud authentication. I use my iCloud account with five devices on a daily basis (my Mac Pro, Macbook Air, iPhone, iPad, and my first generation Surface) and have no troubles signing in or out of any of them (*). I've also used it on other people's Macs (wife's Macbook, Dad's Macbook Pro), and never had an issue relating to the hardware. What iCloud looks at is your Apple ID (= email address), the associated password, and - if you've set it up - Apple's two-step verification (link). (* – Aside from the Surface's problems being recognized as proper Apple hardware, which I've outlined in an earlier post) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalFishX Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 @uhoh Yeah I use two step and I have an iPad, iPhone and another Mac, also my wife does... I was wondering about this because all the things about the serial number, but I think you're right, It doesn't make sense Apple will use just the serial number to give access to things... I am just a little paranoid about security, and well, it's remarkable how they keep patching security holes (latest one, SSL) ... Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knod Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Surface Pro 2 FIXED/WORKAROUND: The audio glitches related to the drifting/non syncing sample rate of the ALC3230 can be fixed by using the Akzidenz patched VoodooHDA 2.8.0 from the guide - in combination with installing Soundflower 1.6.6b and by setting up a new multi-output device in Audio/MIDI settings. Make sure you select Soundflower (2ch) as the clock source (right click) and then any other device - including "Speaker (Analog)", "Headphones (Black left) and Airplay - as "resample this sub device". This will give the ALC3230 a proper clock source and fix the problems with external USB-audio, Airplay and pro audio programs like Logic Pro X. Enjoy your new audio workstation!

MetalFishX Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 @knod What I did is, I changed all outputs to 44100.0 Hz, 2ch-16bit... No glitches at all. But tested that you said and it didn't work for me (On a Surface Pro 2 too)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knod Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 @MetalFishX: For some users, the sample rate trick seems to work. But according to others in the audio forum over here, the problems reappear as the codec slowly drifts out of sync again after 5 minutes or so. Also, some people don't seem to experience any issues to begin with. Perfect for them of course, but still pretty weird as the install & the hardware are identical. Did you also check the box "drift correction" on the Speaker (Analog) on the multi-output device in Audio/MIDI Setup? This needs to be checked - and there should be a clock icon on the right of the Soundflower (2ch) and a sine wave on the right of the Speaker (Analog) when the multi-output device is expanded. Then use this new multi-output device as audio output and system sound output. So, the Soundflower (2ch) device in this setup is actually only used as a clock source. (Both 2ch & 64ch turned off in Soundflowerbed). (Updated my previous post with a screenshot to clarify.) Well, anyway, hope it works out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
