Could you please [mention=1303722]arsradu[/mention] help [mention=2128562]MorenoAv[/mention] to get Sound working? Because he have the same ALC chip as you, the ALC892, we scratched our head to help him with no luck? I've uploaded to him the AppleALC 1.2.8 v2 you shared to me and that worked, but it seems that something is wrong on he's EFI or S\L\E L\E  .
I suspect he has 2 or more EFI partitions which is why I'm awaiting the output of diskutil list. And possibly modifying the incorrect one.

Yeah, I went back now and saw that Pavo also attempted to help him get the sound working by using AppleALC 1.2.8. Still, he seems to end up with 1.2.6 for some reason. :)) And I'm really curious to know why.

Yeah.... Maybe he's making the changes to one partition and then booting from another. It could be.

 

@MorenoAv if you can, would it possible for you to upload the entire Clover folder from the partition you're trying to boot? BUT NOT BEFORE you clean you config.plist of any serials in SMBIOS and RT Variables. I'm curious what's going on with your Clover. :)

This kext was from my post, see the previous, i uploaded for him (Kexts + patched Devices-SSDT with CpuSsdt + config.plist and AppleHDA 10.13) to let him rollback to 10.13 applehda. Honestly, I already tried that and worked, because he own same chipset as me with same Manufacturer, that's why i uploaded the files.

I see... But...he doesn't need AppleHDA from 10.13. Though it should work just fine. But also, on the next update....that kext might get updated, as well. Which means, if you don't have a persistent patch, you're most likely gonna have to do it again on the next update. Whereas with AppleALC, it's not gonna touch AppleHDA. And since, for ALC892 there are plenty of layout IDs to chose from, even with the latest AppleHDA from 10.14, then the "rollback" method, is not really necessary here.

 

For sound in Mojave, all he needs is the original AppleHDA for 10.14, AppleALC 1.2.8, no patches in Config and that's about it. Sound injection set to Layout ID whatever (shouldn't matter). But I don't think it works with Detect... I'm using Layout ID 5, for example, just because that's actually closer to my real hardware config than the others. But, as wI said, that shouldn't matter since it's probably not actually using that anyway. So you can input whatever Layout ID you want. The point is that AppleHDA has something to offer for that codec. And, for some people, there simply isn't. So, for them the rollback is a possibility. Another one, although I personally wouldn't recommend that if you can have AppleALC, is VoodooHDA. But, in my experience, the sound quality was actually better with AppleALC. So, my personal preference would be towards that one.

Hi! Would anyone look at my troubleshooting files? I'm using minstolensize patch for kbl frame buffer and I'm booting to a black screen... I'm using a very similar clover config to what I used with high Sierra. On high Sierra I had literally 0 problems. I will see if hdmi output works.

Ok guys, excuse me since I haven't been closely following MorenoAv's plight with getting his video going but I'd like to ask him a question. MorenoAv, do you by any chance have multiple EFI partitions on your system? If so, is it possible you're applying this edits to the wrong one? Sorry if this info has already been confirmed etc... Sometimes it is the most obvious things that we over look. 

Hi In-N-Out,

I am not, I only have one partition, in each ssd ... in one I have High Sierra 10.13.6 beta 2, and in this one I have only Mojave... but I send my EFI folder for you all to see...

but after I want to talk to strangest thing that happened in my all time with hackintosh, this time I installed 6 kexts in my usb installer, and after install clover boot loader I have all my kexts from my 10.13.6 in this fresh install... without installing any kexts.

Yep, i agree with you. But to rollback in that actual situation and to have it working, three things should be present: #HDEF=>"layout-id", with favorite one 1, 2, 3 or another #AppleALC1.2.6 or 7 #AppleHDA10.13.#. 

And yes in each OSUpdate need reinstall the AppleHDA. Three things worked for me to get sound working:

1- VoodooHDA but as i said in the previous posts Guitar Rig don't work with it

2- Rolling Back as i said above, this was a suggestion from a user in the AppleALC topic, didn't remember the guy

3- You compiled version of AppleALC v2 with the @Pavo suggestion to change "layout-id", with "alc-layout-id",

Now i use method number 3, but all of them worked.

We are all in testing purpose, each one choose what is convenient for him, but for me i prefer to test all the things, so i'll have my proper opinion, to have more flexibility when doing help like others. I'm tester, and i'd love to test everything about Hackintosh if i can, but i can't because i have to read the entire insanelymac topics :hysterical:, this will be difficult, but i do the better i can ^_^

The simple way is in the bios settings, enable SATA for only one Os drive, and save the profile of each OS. the EFI partitions will not interfere during boot process, this is simple with GIGABYTE boards.

The point of AppleALC is that, as the name suggests, it's dynamic. And for as far as I know, it doesn't care about the Layout ID in Clover config, since it's most likely not gonna use it anyway. :)

I din't touch the bios before installation, of Mojave...

here it goes the boot.log, I hope its this...

Boot.log.rtf.zip

 

No, i mean in the bios settings, enable only the OS Drive that you'll boot from, because each OS drive have it's own EFI partition, and if for example you have two OS drives, if you want to boot from SATA1, you have to know that SATA0 will be as the first bootable, so this is the interferences that I'm talking about and friends also. The point here, is to enable only the OS drive that you want to boot from, in that case no interferences will be with between EFI partitions.

Use that clover folder and enable only Mojave drive from bios and tell us if the sound will work

Yep for sure, i don't use the clover layout id only SSDT or DSDT, but it's clear for me, thanks @arsradu , i appreciate your infos :)

CLOVER.zip

 

Hi man,

 

Clover config still uses patches for 10.13. And, if I got this right, the AppleHDA is not the original one in Mojave anymore either.

 

So here's what I would suggest:

1. let's make a backup of your current config anywhere you want. You can just rename it config_bkp.plist, if you want.

2. let's generate you a fresh new config.plist. You can do that with Clover Configurator. It has an option to generate a new config.plist. There are a few things in your config that I'm not sure should be there.

3. AppleALC.kext is version 1.2.8, so that's good. Let's keep it this way.

4. Do you have a way to get back the original/vanilla AppleHDA.kext from 10.14? If not, maybe I can try to provide it later on. I think you can also extract it with Pacifist from a 10.14 app. But if you're not sure how to do it, better not do it.

5. Please, make a backup then remove the DSDT.aml from Clover/ACPI/Patched.

6. If you formatted only the OS partition before installation, and not the entire SSD, the EFI (with whatever content was there), will be kept.

For example, if you have two SSDs, both with Clover installed on them. And one day, you decide that you want to put a new OS on one of them, and you only format the OS partition, and not the entire HDD/SSD, Clover will be kept on the destination drive, since that part is not formatted during installation.

 

Anyway, if the hardware is the same, which means the same ALC892, you don't need patches in Clover config anyway (for HDMI audio you might....but for analog audio, I don't think so). So the point here is for you to have the same Clover folder on all partitions. ONCE you get it done and working on one of them. Since I see no reason to keep them separate. If you were able to boot High Sierra 10.13.6, you should be fine with the same config (with AppleALC 1.2.8 though, since 1.2.6 doesn't work for Mojave, with the default AppleHDA kext that you get with 10.14).

 

So, what you have right now in your Clover/kext folder is ok for sound with Mojave. And actually for sound with any other version. So you can keep that as default.

 

What is probably not ok in your case, is the config.plist, and probably the AppleHDA.kext itself. That's why I suggested a new config, and also putting back the AppleHDA from 10.14 (the default one, untouched).

 

By the way, you can simply copy-paste THIS Clover folder that you attached here (once we make it work), to the USB drive, as well. I see you're not using Lilu and AppleALC there.

 

But, right now, let's focus on getting the SSD with Mojave on it, to boot and have sound. After that, you can copy-paste it on the other drives, as well.

So, from now on, please, make sure you are booting from the correct drive. Make sure you are selecting the right DRIVE on boot.

If I remember correctly, Gigabyte boards have the boot menu on F12 upon boot. Right?

 

So, press F12 upon boot and make sure the drive you select IS the one using THIS Clover folder that you posted here. It's really important that you boot from that drive. Clover UI will most likely look the same. So you need to make sure you select the correct SSD to boot from, before you select the partition (in this case the Mojave partition) on Clover UI. Otherwise, no magic for you.

 

Also, if you still have the USB drive inserted, please, remove it and boot from the SSD.

 

And, as I said, let's try a fresh config & the original AppleHDA from 10.14.

Yep yep. On the other side, I had pretty bad results with SSDT/DSDT... :D So I personally try to avoid that as much as possible. :))) I had a lot of issues with custom DSDTs (like MorenoAv seems to be using).

I do all my patches with Clover config, as much as possible. That's it. And I try to keep everything as clean as possible, because, sometimes, too many options create issues, too.

Hi ammoune78, arsradu,

First I don't have sound yet with your suggestion but your clover works, but I can't make the changes in bios because I have so many entries in the bios that is impossible to distinguish them from one to another.

As you know our motherboards are prone to this error.

arsradu now I know why the clover trick, but I haven't succeed in erasing all my ssd an I don't know why... this ssd is originally to install windows 10, but I haven't succeed to make it work and then as a backup to my 10.13.x, but after Mojave is out I decided to try it and was easy to install, but I have all this troubles...

The Original Mojave AppleHDA.kext

AppleHDA.kext.zip

Thank you. That's what I call teamwork.

 

@MorenoAv

Now, THIS AppleHDA.kext need to get its way back into S/L/E, in Mojave. You can probably use some Kext apps for this.

But the way I like to do it though, is from Terminal, using this command. This way you don't need to repair any permissions.

 

Assuming you downloaded it and unpacked it on your Desktop. If not, either move it to Desktop, or adjust the command below to point to the right location 

cd Desktop
sudo -s
[password]
cp -R -v AppleHDA.kext /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext

So if I'm right i guess, you patch AppleHDA from clover kexttopatch and don't use clover=>devices=>audio and SSDT/DSDT!

The DSDT on the patched folder is from MaLdOn, he know what he do there's no doubt! The only thing that was missed is HDEF=>_DSM.

I and like MaLdOn, prefer DSDT patch, this is all in on place, for every OS, but yes, do not have to make mistake there, because as you said, it will make issues.

In the bios menu of your gigabyte board press F2 then it'll switch to another mode, from there, make sure in the device submenu you go in SATA, then enable only the drive that have Mojave on it. Another thing is to use UEFI OROM for all only, that said you will have only UEFI drives shown. Then save that profile, and make this for all OS drives and save each one separately, then when you need to start some of these profiles just enter bios settings press F4 and select the profile you want from the list
