Other than that this thing seems done and ready. new card should be here friday and hopefully that'll be it hello @kwjenkins. I maybe solved my BT issue. r u checked BT working on Windows?

Not sure if parallels desktop supports any VT-d features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rongu Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) @kowbot Glad you found a way to manage the freezing issues and Thanks for sharing. You might want to include the BIOS version (0057 or 0056). I'm trying to borrow one HVK to test. @kowbot "I disable VT-d in bios how working Parallels os OS X? " At this point of time, the biggest bottleneck with hypervisors is Direct I/O and with VT-d enable, it should help with I/O intensive virtualization. To me VT-d is good to have not must have. If you are a PRO providing a virtual service, hosting guests, running something where you need the performance ........ then VT-d is very important. Normal day to day, casual run additional OS ...then not that important, I can't tell if they were any difference. By the way @kowbot can you do me a favour and post your terminal output with the command "kextstat |grep AppleLPC", Thanks !

I have experience use ESXi I understand VT-d is very important. but, now I don't need in OS X. I only use Banking, Development, little time gaming. "kextstat | grep AppleLPC" is nothing output.

rongu Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) @kowbot Thanks, that means AppleLPC.kext was not loaded in your system (HVK) also. I have a HNK version and wonder why it not loading AppleLPC.kext despite device-id change in clover->devices->properties changes with "PciRoot(0)/Pci(31,0) device-id C19C0000" (according to osy it should load). At the end of the day, AppleLPC.kext is needed for proper CPU Power Management (https://pikeralpha.wordpress.com/2013/10/05/xnu-cpu-power-management/). To get AppleLPC loaded: - Disable device change in clover/devices/propeties by adding a "#" to "PciRoot(0)/Pci(31,0)", see attach picture. - Install the attached AppleLPC_Injector.kext in clover/kexts/others. - save/reboot and verify with command "kextstat | grep AppleLPC" in your terminal again. - double check with IOregistryviewer HNK & HVK should have the same LPC controller (HM175 Chipset) pic8086,a152. Attached picture & terminal LPC output are mine. Can you or anybody test and reply, Thanks ! Managed to test on a HVK system and confirmed AppleLPC.kext was not loaded without LPC injection. Last picture is a HVK (iMac18,2 profile) average idle frequency with AppleLPC.kext loaded. More test and time to tell.

I was using your build straight up after testing / installing day sunday. [many config were tried] the main today I took apart the build to prep to drop in a new wifi card and adapter to troubleshoot the issue, and checked my bad seating [cant screw anything in here due to larger board no access to screw down ssd stick on top either so re-secured and rechecked all connections and now its working completely, with your guide. hurray! bios 58.

osy Posted July 25, 2019 Author Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) New release: https://github.com/osy86/HaC-Mini/releases/tag/v1.3 Enable iGPU. Fixes Preview freeze bug when opening JPEG files. If you previously disabled iGPU, please re-enable it in the BIOS! Reworked the USB port injection. Should be cleaner. Fixed a bug that caused AppleLPC to not be loaded. If you have a custom installation, make sure to merge the changes in the config.plist and replace the DSDT files.

Any reason why you're using iMac19,1? iMac18,2/iMac18,3 are the closest in terms of CPU/platform. Macmini8,1 is the closest in terms of overall hardware.
