I'll keep an eye on things to see if any weirdness creeps back in - thanks for putting this together. @glasgood I can't remember if you included your SMBIOS serial/ROM in your downloads, but other people may just be using those as-is and duplicating the serial. I've run into iMessage activation issues before where I think Apple starts blacklisting the serial because of too many activation attempts across different machines. You may try generating a fresh set of SMBIOS values if all else fails... I've kept my own serial and all of the rt variables unique. That's why I don't have any problem activating imessage. If Apple sees too many activation using the same serial, you will need to generate different ones and worst case you may get your apple ID blacklisted.

tasc Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 @AudioGod I did notice one error/warning in the ACPI bootup from VirtualSMC about VirtualSMC EFI module broken. I'm not sure if this module is required for reading temps/speeds/etc, but I've added it in previous builds to get rid of that warning. I don't monitor temps or anything, so probably don't need it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do exactly the same thing and its also why I removed all info from my EFI before uploading it onto here. Some people dont read though and make sure or change the details...THAT'S JUST PLAIN LAZY....lol 6 minutes ago, tasc said: @AudioGod I did notice one error/warning in the ACPI bootup from VirtualSMC about VirtualSMC EFI module broken.

I just checked and no warnings for me on the VirtualSMC. Try and keep that kext folder down to a minimum buddy. FakeSMC will work too if you prefer.

Ah. I always understood the USB patches in Clover were temporary. It actives all ports so you can create a custom SSDT or USBPorts.kext. Enabling all ports was a bad thing I thought. So the SSDT-6-A M L is only activating USB ports, correct? Nothing else? I will have to try and not have my customized USBPorts.kext installed. 15 minutes ago, tasc said: @AudioGod I did notice one error/warning in the ACPI bootup from VirtualSMC about VirtualSMC EFI module broken.

(Where I have blanked out the details) and your be golden And not exactly no, SSDT-6-A M L is to fix ACPI warnings and give you a perfect log and its also what's used to patch the USB to make it native.

I haven't tried it yet, and most probably I will hold a bit on it just to give it a little time, is it possible to disable the wakeup with input devices and wake up the computer only though power button? Also, why to disable hibernate? Thanks! It is possible yes by changing the DSDT slightly but how I have it now you.can only wake the hack by clicking on the mouse or pressing the power button so theres no real reason to change it to any other way really. You don't use hibernate when you put the system to sleep and as MaLd0n says a perfect hack is one with hibernate disabled. If you use file vault though then don't disable it.

When you get to clover boot page press space and select slide=0 and once you enter Mojave’s go into your config and add slide=0 to your boot arguments or just disable the igpu in the bios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok if you have your igpu enabled then disable it in the bios and test if not then pull the power from the mains and then remove the battery for a few mins from the motherboard and then put it back and load up your bios setting as per glasgoods guide and you should be fine. boot back up using your USB key and then go into the config of the new efi and make sure you have copied across all your details. And that is vital buddy, don’t leave it blank jumping from efi to efi can mess up the bios from time to time but it’s nothing major and easily fixed. also if your not already then update the bios to f10 as that’s what mine and glasgood dsdt is based on Edited August 16, 2019 by AudioGod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you should be able to boot into the system with the igpu enabled just go into your config and add slide=0 to the boot arguments and then in the bios enable the igpu and set it to its default settings and it should work fine using imacpro1,1 And no generate a new serial and follow glasgoods guide on how to enable iMessage. Personally I prefer the igpu disabled but I'm a overclocker so I would....lol Edited August 16, 2019 by AudioGod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panosru Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 (edited) @AudioGod So far so good, I can say it works much better than the previous iMacPro1,1 EFI. One minor thing that I have is that my iStats Menus does not recognise my GPU (also a few other programs like VideoProc) and I'm not getting temperature value from GPU sensor I had the same issue with the previous iMacPro1,1 EFI, but I do not have it with iMac19,1 EFI But About this Mac recognises the GPU but for my CPU it shows i9 instead of i7 Those are minor issues, not being able to see the temperature of my GPU is a bit annoying though. I will monitor it to see if it solves my freezes that I'm getting quite often lately. Thanks! PS: With igpu enabled in the BIOS it will not boot even with slide=0 boot option. PS2: I may be wrong, but I guess iStatus Menus relies on FakeSMC in order to show GPU temperature... just a theory though..

Your getting there buddy, Are your bios setting in line with this guide? also is your bios at revision F10? not not then make sure you do both and see if that improves your result. for the gpu you try injecting it in the clover config and see if that helps. See glasgoods guide on framebuffers on how to do it if your unsure. On 3/6/2019 at 9:58 AM, glasgood said: PART 10 – FRAMEBUFFERS FOR RADEON AMD RX580, VEGA CARD's Reveal hidden contents The default Framebuffer used after installing macOS is the ATY,AMD,RadeonFramebuffer. A slight improvement in performance can be had by specifying the framebuffer used by your AMD Graphics card see benchmarks below. In the EFI folders attached to guide, I have included SSDT's for AMD RX580 and AMD Vega 56 to enable Orinoco and Kamarang Framebuffers. However the framebuffer can be done changed without SSDT, the framebuffer can also be changed in config.plist using Clover Configurator below. FRAMEBUFFERS RX 580 = Orinoco Vega 56 = Kamarang or Iriri Vega 64 = Kamarang or Iriri EXAMPLE Changing from ATY,AMD,Radeon Framebuffer to Orinoco framebuffer for AMD RX 580.
