Clover can dump it, hot F1 for help in clover gui :) then press the button for that dump (it is not the dsdt dump) after that you will find your dump in clover/rom/

hey it was F6 for vbios but its in bin

and in ubuntu intel vbios was of 131.kb' and amd bios was of 65kb so i think clover dumped intel bios !

Ive attached the dumped file plz decode it :)

c0000.bin.zip

i don't want intel hd4K, i said i have it :)

i want AMD Radeon Rom which is in c0000.bin file which m unable to extract !

the reason behind this is m facing performance issue graphics  !

sometime i see some tiny sparkles during QE/CI !


n how can i get iMessage n FaceTime Working without calling Apple !

Ok, then you can try to remove the old rom, then reboot, open DPCIManager, and you'll find both graphic cards, you'll see an eye next to your graphic card select it then cooss a destination folder, it will dump the vBios, then proceed your guide.

For iMessage/FT you will need to generate a valid mlb and a valid rom, you'll find a guide named "pattern of MLB/rom" in Tutorials sections.

@Sidd looks like you are diffing your original EDID with another rMBP right ? If you have gradient issue, just change the first value of your basic param to 90, then recalculate the checksum and you are good to go

Edit: for Intel HD4000, your laptop doesn't have it aka disabled in the bios, give a picture of Device Manager > Display Adapter to prove that you have Intel HD4000

Meaning without the ATI ROM you can't get QE/CI

Make a live linux USB and then boot it, open terminal and then type this:

lspci | grep VGA

A list will be in the output, look at your AMD Radeon and remember the first numbers

XX:XX.XX BLABLABLABLABLA

remember XX:XX.XX, then type this:

sudo su

Then:

echo 1 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:XX:XX.X/rom && cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:XX:XX.X/rom > vbios.dump && echo 0 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:XX:XX.X/rom

Replace XX:XX.X with the numbers you got earlier, save the dump somewhere safe (it should be in ~/ ) then use it.


AND WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GET THAT CONFIG.PLIST???!!!! IT'S SO DISGUSTING!!!! :sick:

this wat m getting in Ubuntu 14.01

 

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Thames [Radeon HD 7550M/7570M/7650M]
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo su
root@ubuntu:/home/ubuntu# echo 1 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:01:00.0/rom && cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:01:00.0/rom > vbios.dump && echo 0 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:01:00.0/rom
bash: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:01:00.0/rom: No such file or directory

 

then ive tried this :)

 

root@ubuntu:/home/ubuntu# echo 1 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/rom && cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/rom > vbios.dump && echo 0 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/rom
cat: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/rom: Input/output error
 

 

 

 

 


This was my method which ive tried way back :

 

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ find /sys/devices -name "rom"
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/rom
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/rom

 

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/rom
1

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/rom > vbios.rom

cat: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/rom: Input/output error

DarwinDumper dump rom which m using :(

if i try without rom it does not dumps anything so as the DPCI :(

Here's what I suggest, don't use Clover's DSDT Fix mask, patch your own DSDT and Graphics. Post everything in one zip: AIDA64's hardware report, your ACPI and VBIOS dump from Darwin Dumper

Ok just have some time to read the bootlog, you don't have Intel HD4000, that's for sure. Onto the Diagnose

Edit: What a mess your config.plist is. Is your brightness slider working ?

Edit 2: You can use Custom EDID to fix your EDID, and throw away the DisplayMergeNub.kext, it's so 90s already
