Asus rog gl703vd partial working

[festano92]

Hi guys, I have some problems completing my hackintosh. Could someone help me?

what works:

Audio (lilu+applehda)

Camera

Mic

Keyboard

Usb 3.1/3.1 typec (SSDT_UIAC)

Battery status

brightness display (SSDT_PNFL+AppleBacklightFixup.kext)

Apple store

What doesn't work:

Touchpad: Elan1200 (Bios device name) i2c. In dsdt it is under Scope (_SB.PCI0.I2C0) Device (TPD0).

Voodooi2c 2.2 and 2,16 cause me boot loop (exactly voodooi2c.kext). I learned that I need voodooi2c specific for ELAN1200+voodooCHID but they don't work (They don't cause me boot loop). I tried to patch dsdt (https://voodooi2c.github.io/) but nothing.

On ioreg: pci8086 a160

Power management (SSDT) ----> I don't know if it's really working. I followed this guide https://www.tonycrapx86.com/threads/guide-native-power-management-for-laptops.175801/

Disable Nvidia discrete graphics: I patched dsdt adding:

                   }

                   Return (PR01)
               }

               Device (PEGP)

                           Return (Buffer (One)
                           {
                                0x03                                           
                           })
                       }

                       Return (Package (0x06)
                       {
                           "name", 
                           Buffer (0x09)
                           {
                               "#display"
                           }, 

                           "IOName", 
                           "#display", 
                           "class-code", 
                           Buffer (0x04)
                           {
                                0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF                         
                           }
                       })
                   }
               }

but I'm not sure if it's really disabled (Battery lasts 1:30h)

Backlight keys: Backlight keys works, but the color and the brightness are "stuck" at the same level of windows 10, and i can't modify them from mojave

Sorry for my bad english. I found the dsdt patched in a thread on this site

I2C device, first use kexts i2c and change to Advanced mode in bios/uefi setup

power management work, u can check here about hwp bug in skylake+ notebooks

Done (in DSDT).

Oh thanks, I'll take a look later.

Ok great. Thanks.

 

I2C device, firsat use keexts i2c and change to Advanced mode in bios/uefi setup

Sorry I don't understand. you mean: put voodooi2c.kext and voodooi2chid.kext (the ones that cause me boot loop? ) in EFI/..../Other, than open the Bios and than? In my advanced mode there are almost all the options of the bios. Anyhow thanks a lot

[MaLd0n]

[ref]festano92[/ref], have one tread here about it, i2c devices

[festano92]

I can't get it to work

IMPORTANT:"Disable built-in trackpad when..."---> don't have one in mouse and trackpad

IMPORTANT 2: Enable advanced option for trackpad in bios if option is available.-->Don't have

IMPORTANT 3: Don't have any PS2

IMPORTANT 4:They are disabled

IMPORTANT 5: I removed from S/L/E, but I added this line on config.plist anyway today

I patched DSDT the right way (I hope). Voodooi2c.kext from 2.13 to 2.2 cause me a sort of boot loop. When the "load screen with the apple" appears, the pc restart itself after a second. Now I have in EFI.../Others voodooi2c.kext for Elan1200 (taken from here https://www.tonycrapx86.com/threads/wip-voodooi2c-i2c-trackpad-limited-support.204227/) and voodoochid.kext (from version 2.2). Any tips? Maybe it would works with voodoo.kext 2.2 but there is something that cause that sort of boot loop?

Do not mix and match different versions.

With no VoodooPS2Controller kext, I wonder how your keyboard is working.

I don't know, My internal keyboard is working since I installed mojave. In my EFI/.../Other, S/L/E and L/E there are no voodooPS2Controller kext

As I said I can't boot if voodooi2c.kext is in EFI/.../Other(from 2,13 to 2,2). I don't even have the time to see what is written on verbose, because the pc restarts after 1/2 seconds after the apple+load bar appears. But If you meant "Place voodooi2c and voodooi2chid on other and extract new send_me without reboot" I can

[onemanosx]

[ref]festano92[/ref], then you are probably using a different kext for keyboard and it might be conflicting with voodooI2c. Remove voodoI2C kexts, reboot and Extract sendme files and I'll take a look.

I can't boot again, so I delete voodoo (from windows with explorer++), boot in mojave and my keyboard backlight keys stop working. Is my keyboard connected by usb? In ioreg i see on hs08

[onemanosx]

Is my keyboard connected by usb?

I suppose it is. If its possible to disable the keyboard and you could boot with voodooI2c, then we wil know the culprit.

Take a picture of where the boot got stuck or before it rebooted.

If I delete the hs08 line in SSDT-UIAC.aml?

[onemanosx]

If I delete the hs08 line in SSDT-UIAC.aml?

yes. disable the port should do it.

[festano92]

I think I'm going to use this kernel flag -uia_exclude_ss uia_exclude=, excluding the external mouse and a usb for a external keyboard

nope, same problem

[onemanosx]

[ref]festano92[/ref], Try with other releases of kexts.

[festano92]

OKOKOKOK. I delete all the .aml files in the patched folder, and with voodoo kexts in EFI/.../Other mojave works. So I think there is something in dsdt that cause the problem, is it possible?

thats an obvious possibility

[festano92]

I updated the bios, installed again mojave, dropped the new acpi tables, patched dsdt from start and populated the patched folder. Now my pc is fully working

Congrats! So, I assume the old DSDT is causing the track pad issue somehow.

[festano92]

Yes-ish. The DSDT caused the kp, but In the method _CRS of TPD0, I always changed return(SBFI) in SBFG and returnconca....(SBFB, SBFI) in SBFB, SBFG. In my case , as the github documentation said, I needed only return(SBFI) and returnconcate...(SBFB,SBFI), for a working trackpad, and no other patches

[onemanosx]

returnconcate...(SBFB,SBFI), for a working trackpad,

That's polling mode.

[festano92]

That's polling mode.

Yes that's right, I was a little bit confused because of other guides I read about other asus laptops
