Lockzi Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Has anyone else started to experience problems with Bluetooth after sleep since High Sierra? The problem is that after wake up: It's on - but can't connect to any devices and can't be turned off (no error message or anything, just nothing happens when pushing the button). The only fix is to restart the computer. I remember that while installing I had some bcrmpatch2 errors while trying to install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiendFyre Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 have a blank trackpad, too. same as on sierra. i cant confirm this. i changed my smbios to MBP13,3 on one machine and to MBP9 to another - works without any problem. So I managed to basically merge your default config.plist and Darkhandz', and got my smbios switched to MBP13,3, but as soon as I try to use CC to change the serial number, board ID, and smuuid, I get an error on boot saying MACH reboot. I'll post a picture of it later, don't have my laptop with me at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackedWifi Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Thanks for the tutorial I finally got macOs High Sierra installed on my XPS. I chose to avoid AAFS based on my first installation boot up being too slow. HFS+J works better. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Did anyone get a blank Trackpad preferences panel in the System Preferences?You have to update the VoodooPS2Controller.kext to version 1.8.28 or later. It works on my end Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.C Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Hi all!My SSD disappeared, can anyone help me please? I did the 4k sector format, then my ssd completely diappeared.

Ubuntu dmesg: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ dmesg | grep -i nvme [ 7.032780] nvme nvme0: pci function 0000:03:00.0 [ 27.604017] nvme nvme0: Device not ready; aborting reset [ 27.604026] nvme nvme0: Removing after probe failure status: -19 in bios: https://imgur.com/a/aexaf Please help somebody... literally Im crying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gymnae Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I'm attempting to upgrade to 10.3.1 now via a fresh USB stick and ran into some of the problems like the others: Failed to install messages. Now I have never patched for 4k and 10.3 doesn't require this anymore. Would I therefore need to add the NVME patches into config.plist like for the 10.12. configs? Fixed it all by re-creating the USB stick from scratch, manually installing Clover via its installer without pandora's box. The upgrade from 10.6. then worked fine. Now to make it walk by itself, aka reinstalling Clover on the new OS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorelander Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Hey guys, I'm thinking of buying this laptop for purposes of a hackintosh. How is the reliability of the hack at this point? In your experience is data loss still a possibility? Would you rely on this as your primary machine? Thanks so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hackedWifi Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Is anybody using HWP speedShift with the current release. Battery life is not good so far. Sleep uses a lot of battery too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gymnae Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 My system is now at 10.13.1 - nice. After upgrading and activating the 4k display patch it wouldn't boot due to AptioFix related allocation errors. That was frustrating, because how can the memmap change? Turns out, it didn't change, but somehow my system needs jump-starting with OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi for the first two or three boots after upgrades. After that, I can use AptioFix2 again. It doesn't matter if booting from internald disk or USB. Sleep works nice, I'll take a look at power consumption, @hackedWifi One odd thing I noticed during boot is that it stalls for up to three minutes, something related to iGPU, before booting up normally. I thought the OS was broken, but it runs four 60s timeouts before booting up. Hadn't had a chance to extract the exact error message yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also sleep is not that great compare with Archlinux. It takes two seconds to put my XPS to sleep with Archlinux but with macOS it takes like 10. Also the other night I charged my computer up to 100 and it was in sleep mode for like a day. Percentage was 72 when I woke up the screen.

Gymnae Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I need slide=138 for my system. But as I wrote, the first two or three reboots after point or major upgrades require jump-starting it. After some days I did notice the drain you described, now I put HWP back into the config and test if it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you following a guide to change the SMBIOS? Are you using Clover configurator? Do you have a screenshot of your kernel panic.In order to get a clear and concise answer, you must provide clear and concise information about your issues. It is easy to fix issues. But we need more information. I am using macpro13 as my SMBIOS and dell BIOS 1.5.1 I have no issues Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
