About build
- <strong> You need at least Macos 10.15.5 to boot with SMBIOS 16,1 </strong>
- Intel wifi card is finally worked:
- Follow this: https://openintelwireless.github.io
Performance
- Geekbench 5: 1052 SingleCore, 3935 MultiCore
- Battery: 57wh with 87% health and 60% brightness (2 NVME and 1 SSD SATA), I got 3h20 screen time when suffering web and light code
Not Working

- Fingerprint (Disabled)
- Internal Microphone
HDMI blinking at boot
This will happen when using plug-in HDMI after bootup. This will be fixed after short sleep (about 1min) and never happen again until reboot
- You can fixed this by turn off com.apple.driver.AppleHDAController in
Kernel and Kext Patches
on Clover orKernel > Patch
on Opencore but HDMI Audio will be disabled
From 10.15.6, event 11, HDMI audio is
dead
, still finding solution
For building
This will pull all newest kext and build into zip files
- Clone this repo
- Run follow command:
python3 update.py --build
- Get your build at Builds folder
Installation

STEP
You can follow Dortania's guide as it very detail and easy to understand.
Short once
- Prepair an Mac installer in USB with bootloader you choice ( Use unibeast to create it )
- Go to
release
and download lastest version of your choice ( Clover or Opencore ) - Replace EFI folder in USB EFI partition with this shipped EFI folder ( find the folder with name is
EFI
from zip file) - Boot into USB and select MacOs installer
- After install success, run PostInstall/install.sh in terminal
- Then you need to mount EFI partition and replace it with USB's EFI
- After System EFI replaced by your EFI, Using Opencore Configurator, Clover Configurator or update script to change SMBIOS, generate your serial and MBL
- If you're using intel card, please use NullEthernet for fixing iMess and FaceTime - Change MAC in NullEthernet with your new created one, see below
- For intel wifi card's user, follow Intel's guide for init your wifi
Fake ethernet
- Generate your MAC address in SSDT-RMNE if using NullEthernet
- You can make an MacAddress in Mac generator online
- Edit SSDT-RMNE.aml with MaciASL and replace MAC with your generated one
- Save as -> ACPI machine language (replace exited one)
- Add it to your bootloader:
- Kext add in Kexts:
- Copy kext to kexts/other if using Clover
- Copy kext to Kexts and add it into Kernel in config.plist (Use OpencoreConfigurator)
- AML's file add to ACPI folder (Opencore need add to ACPI after copy SSDT file to ACPI, use OpencoreConfigurator)
- Kext add in Kexts:
- Reboot
Sleep Wake
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 0
sudo pmset -a standby 0
sudo pmset -a proximitywake 0
sudo pmset -b tcpkeepalive 0 (optional)
-b
- Battery-c
- AC Power-a
- Both
Please uncheck all options (except Prevent computer from sleeping...
, which is optional) in the Energy Saver
panel.
Display
If you are using FHD(1080p) display, you may want to enable font smoothing, run this command from terminal:
defaults write -g CGFontRenderingFontSmoothingDisabled -bool NO
If your laptop display is 4K screen, you should set uiscale to 2:
- Opencore: NVRAM -> Add -> 4D1EDE05-38C7-4A6A-9CC6-4BCCA8B38C14 -> UIScale -> 2
- Clover: BootGraphics -> UIScale -> 2
Using DW1820a as wifi card
- <del> You have to do following changes to Device Properties or it
cant boot into macos
: - DW1820a now have been supported by
AirportBrcmFixup
, if u facing with connection issues then follow bellow
Change
<key>#PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1c,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)</key>
Into
<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1c,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)</key>
- See THE Solution:Dell DW1820A
- Other card you may need google for it
NTFS Writing
Add UUID=xxx none ntfs rw,auto,nobrowse
to /etc/fstab
, xxx is the UUID of your NTFS partition.
If your NTFS partition has Windows installed, you need to run powercfg -h off
in powershell in Windows to disable hibernation.
Tap Delay
- Turn off
Smart zoom
to avoid two-finger tap delay.

BIOS value unlock (Advanced User)
Big thanks for @Leoing, who found all nessesary value
Name | Address | Configable value | Default value |
---|---|---|---|
CFC-Lock | 0x6F0 | 0x1 or 0x0 | 0x1 |
DGPU | 0x574 | 0x1 or 0x0 | 0x1 |
Voltage Lock | 0x78C | 0x1 or 0x0 | 0x1 (1.6.0) |
You can follow this to change those value
For Bios 1.6.0
0x78C
need set to 0x0 so VoltageShift can be used
<p> <img style="border-radius: 8px" src="https://github.com/tctien342/smart-cpu/raw/master/menu.png"> </p>You can use mine SmartCPU Script base on VoltageShift for controlling cpu power's usage: SmartCPU
