AppleHDA

Q: What is a Hackintosh?

A non-Apple computer configured to run macOS using compatible PC hardware combined with a custom bootloader and configuration files to emulate a real Mac environment.

Q: Is building a Hackintosh legal?

Installing macOS on non-Apple hardware violates Apple’s End User License Agreement (EULA). It is generally not illegal for personal experimentation but not permitted for commercial use.

Q: What hardware is best for a Hackintosh?

The best hardware closely matches real Apple systems, with Intel CPUs (6th Gen to Core Ultra), AMD Radeon GPUs, compatible chipsets, and Intel-based Wi-Fi cards offering higher success rates.

Q: Can I build a Hackintosh with an AMD CPU?

Yes, macOS can run on AMD Ryzen CPUs using kernel patches, but Intel CPUs provide better native compatibility.

Q: What is OpenCore?

OpenCore is a modern Hackintosh bootloader that provides near-native macOS behavior and is the recommended bootloader for new installations.

Q: Is Clover still supported?

Yes, Clover is still supported but less recommended compared to OpenCore for modern systems.

Q: Which macOS versions support Hackintosh?

Hackintosh systems support macOS versions from Leopard up to recent releases, depending on hardware compatibility.

Q: Do NVIDIA graphics cards work on Hackintosh?

Only older NVIDIA GPUs work on older macOS versions; modern NVIDIA GPUs are incompatible with current macOS releases due to lack of driver support.

Q: What is an EFI folder?

The EFI folder contains the bootloader, drivers, kexts, and configuration files required to boot macOS on a Hackintosh.

Q: What are kexts?

Kexts (kernel extensions) are drivers that enable hardware functionality such as audio, Ethernet, USB, and graphics.

I have booted with this line "dsdt=Desktop/DSDT.aml -v" to test the dsdt and to be safe in case I have a kernel panic.

You have to pass full path

dsdt=/Users/sahbin/Desktop/DSDT.aml -v

sahbin · June 21, 2013

hmm ok I will try this as soon as possible, thank you

sahbin · June 21, 2013

I tried it but no success my mac is in french so I tried: dsdt=/Ustilisateurs/sahbin/Bureau/dsdt.aml and dsdt=/Users/sahbin/Desktop/dsdt.aml

I also putted -v -f and AppleHda.kext loaded but still no sound and no icon.

I have working mountain lion on my HP6550eb laptop. Iuse custom dsdt and voodoohda 2.8.4.

sounds works but I would prefer a patched applehda.

I tried to follow the codecgraph guide, but verbit gave this error: "ERROR: This doesn't appear to be an alsa codec dump file

Codec: Realtek ALC268

Address: 0

AFG Function Id: 0x1 (unsol 1)"

Attached codecdump and dsdt.aml

Why don't you put DSDT.aml in / with another name to make it simple?

DSDT=/test.aml

I guess the folder name in terminal is always in english, even if the OS is in another language. Mine is in portuguese, finder shows "Usuários" but the actual name in terminal is "Users".

These are my original and modified dsdt files for HDEF alc 272 can someone look and say if there is something wrong with it. Thanks

dsdt-original.aml.zip

dsdt-modified.aml.zip

pernacabeluda · June 21, 2013

It depends on your patched AppleHDA, if it uses LayoutID 1 then DSDT is correct.

sahbin · June 21, 2013

yes its layoutid 1 but unfortunately it doesnt work

sahbin · June 21, 2013

I tried this one http://www.osx86.net/view/3100-applehda.kext_alc272_mountain_lion_vers_...html

no luck what should I try next ?

Follow the guide on AppleHDA patching

You probably need to adjust the pathmaps.

I am trying to do this method but it's too difficult for me I have difficulties in chapter 2 with modifying AppleHDAHardwareConfigDriver.kext and also point 3 - Editing and platform.xml layout12.xml or Layout1.xml because when I open layout1.xml I get a different code something like this

If they are .zlib you have to use script zlib.pl to compress/decompress (look at the end of the guide).

try the previous kext

try changing pathmaps following this guide: http://Olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=2676

polle58 · June 24, 2013

Ok, Mirone thanks again.

I will have a look, seems quite complicated for me, but will read carefully. but don't I need output from verbit? (that was gving me an error that's why I asked here in the first place)

also found this, don't know if it can be used :

Mirone · June 24, 2013

@Polle58

the last kext I sent you do the following,

1 - replace layout12 layout12 by the previous kext.

2-in pathmaps try to correct the values.

Your pathmaps are:

MicExt: 8-35-24

MicInt: 7-36-25 pass (8-35-25)

HeadPhones: 21-16-3

InternalSpeaker: 20-15-2
