Dear Madlon,

Continue with my fix for video patch, from this link: https://blog.daliansky.net/Intel-core-display-platformID-finishing.html

I found out that my platform ID for HD530 4K is 0x193b0005

After modify that one into the EFI folder, it had improvement with previous as picture below, but I do not know video is fixed yet and meet other problem (smc?). At this step, the screen stop running, I waited around 10 minutes but nothing change.

Could you please help me see the code to know problem form where. Attached file is EFI folder I'm using.

Thanks so much!

try disable VoodooInput.kext

[Cao Dat]

I have disable already but get same result, do you think that because of something related to ACPI in DSDT?

Dear Madlon,

I have improvement with the process of tuning for my hackintosh in video patch

From idea of this topic: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/laptop-internal-4k-display-not-working.305433/

Because when I see the code stop, my HDD led still run, keyboard light have, the screen of laptop show black screen but not turn off —> I guess have problem that EDID of my screen not recognize. So I try to connect my laptop over HDMI with external display and the magic show:

https://imageupload.io/8j5gLO9NhM.i

I used the EFI folder in the post I quoted. The problem I think that because in Big Sur, the boot args -cdfon can not use with 4K screen. Now we need to find the way to fix EDID for my 4K internal laptop screen. Could you help me give idea go resolve this? Can we use Hackintool to fix?

I’m reading this topic, he has problem same as me: https://gitmemory.com/frbuccoliero
and https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-guide-workaround-for-cdfon.306154/

use catalina to create it if need

use hackintool, Displays tab

Dear Maldon,

I have finally successful to patch video by patch EDID for my internal 4k (but the refresh rate of screen only 48Hz, need to wait for new release of Lilu and Whatevergreen), also brightness change button is fix. Thanks for your patience with my case.

Currently, I'm facing up with 02 remain issues related to power:

1. No battery icon and not show status of charging, as picture in this link: https://imgur.com/V2c3SkV (it shows current battery charge 0% instead that I plug in power)

2. Lid ưake/sleep wake: After close lid, when I open again, the screen show grey like this picture, can not go inside again, need to turn off by power button (already port mapping usb: https://imgur.com/cjYIAVA

Also I add Runme and ioreg file. Could you please help me check DSDT file is full fix yet? and EFI file need to fine tune anything more or not to finally the hack and I start to use it daily (boot args, quirks...)

Thanks so much!

Dear Maldon,

Here is my Send me & Ioreg file. Please help me review to fix the problem "if not connect to charger, after shutdown my laptop can not turn on by press power button".

Also when you check DSDT file, please help me check with 02 things I want to modify:

1. Completely disable laptop GPU: By this link https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/Laptops/laptop-disable.html  Instead of do SSDT, can we do it in DSDT? Because the boot arg -wenoegpu not completely disable it.

2. Fix trackpad I2C: I want to use touch screen, by this link https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/Laptops/trackpad.html  Can you help me check DSDT to fix it into DSDT stead of make SSDT method?

For the case of sleep wake/lid wake: I have test to connect to external display over HDMI, sleep/wake normal --> I think the problem by EDID for my internal 4k laptop display. In Big Sur, some patch of Lilu/Whatevergreen is broken like -cdfon --> I need to wait for new release and continue to test other method. If you have any idea please let me know!

Thank you so much!
