SoxasoraIT Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 (edited) Surface Pro 2017 with macOS Mojave 10.14.4, QE/CI working, Audio working What is working: QE/CI (Graphics Acceleration) Audio (Everything) Brightness (Rehabman patch) Touchpad without gestures Keyboard NVMe Partially working: Battery? Well, it shows the indicator but I don't think that is working well lol Sleep/Wake maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, no issues clicking the power button to put it to sleep and then re-clicking it to wake though. What is NOT working: Wi-Fi Bluetooth Touchpad gestures Camera Touchscreen Guide based on Naborisk's High Sierra one Create bootable USB using createinstallmedia Install latest clover Delete CLOVER folder on ESP partition and replace it with the one in this thread Boot from USB and change ig-platform-id to 0x12345678 (in order to disable acceleration) and add -v argument Install macOS partitioning with Disk Utility and etc. Boot again from USB and again changing ig-platform-id to 0x12345678, but this time selecting the created partition Configure it Mount and open EFI (ESP/SYSTEM) partition of the SSD Go to /EFI/ and copy CLOVER folder from this thread Open Terminal and run "sudo kextcache -i /" Eject USB and put it apart Reboot and boot from SSD (CLOVER boot entry), this time without changing anything Hey! You did it! ONLY 10.14.4+ 28 April 2019 (latest for this version of macOS) Download latest CLOVER efi folder here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16PER4qlMN3Jvygg6k1iIZoanEw4z2AKQ/view?usp=sharing ONLY 10.14 to 10.14.3 22 November 2018 (latest for this version of macOS) Download CLOVER efi folder here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IHktQIIBpy0YxcQ_f5x6HqqMyPbvf9a-/view?usp=sharing I created this guide with this updated and working efi folder because the original one didn't really work on my Surface, which is a shame :\ Kexts used: - ACPIBatteryManager - AppleBacklightInjector - AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement - CodecCommander.kext - FakeSMC - FakeSMC HWSensor addons - Lilu - NullEthernet (with DSDT patch and for iMessage/FaceTime) - VoodooHDA - VoodooI2C (with HID addon) - WhateverGreen (iGPU and DRM rights) Edited April 28, 2019 by SoxasoraIT 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razak Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Je ne sais pas. Je n'ai pas de Surface pro 2017 sous la main pour faire des tests. Je ne peut pas te garantir si cela va fonctionner car j'ai vu qu'il y a aussi des patches ou kexts sur la toile. I do know. I do not have a Surface pro 2017 for testing. I am not certain it is gonna work because I've seen patch and alternative kexts on the other websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cunc.cameron Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Currently trying this guide on my Surface but I can't seem to get past this error - hangs after End RandomSeed once I've selected to boot the macOS installer. I've reinstalled clover, reformatted the USB, tried adding more drivers, no luck. Any ideas? Also tried using the clover version from when this guide was created and still, nothing. Can't be the USB, as I've successfully installed Mojave onto my desktop with this same one. I'm lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_slack Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Thx for this post. Very much interested in getting a surface to use macOS on it as well. Just a couple of questions: 1 Is there a chance to "brick" the device by doing this ? 2 Is this dual boot mode, e.g. does the normal windows version still run on it ? 3 How "native" is macOS, like: a. can you update it with automatic updates, or is it always like a chance of breaking it ? b. does sleep / wake work ? (also battery saving) c. does icloud / sync with iPhoto / contacts etc work ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
