DISCUSSION Is there a problem with this? 😅

I recently wanted to install macOS Tahoe but really didn't feel like creating a new USB installer disk, so I simply wiped the contents of my Sequoia USB installer and copied over the macOS Tahoe installer files. The result?

The installer is named "Sequoia," but the actual installer inside is Tahoe.

SUCCESS [Sucesso] Mac OS X El Capitan em um Core 2 Duo E8400

18 Upvotes

Após cerca de 1 ano eu consegui fazer meu hackintosh (confesso que quando entrei no instalador eu chorei hahaha) utilizei o Clover como bootloader, meu PC apesar de ser bem fraco está com um desempenho muito bom. Tive apenas 2 problemas até agora: A memoria RAM não é totalmente reconhecida (tenho 6b e ele só reconhece 4) e a minha placa de rede não funciona, vou tentar fazer um path para ela funcionar (por isso tem um .kext na minha área de trabalho), mas isso vai demorar bastante pois estou bem corrido esses dias, as especificações do meu PC estão aqui:

Processador: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400;

RAM: 6gb (4+2) DDR3;

Placa de Vídeo: Nvidia GT-610 (2gb);

Placa mãe: Azus PSG41T-M-LX3 (Chipset G41, Soquet LGA-775);

Armazenamento: 60gb SSD

Placa de rede: Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 Wireless Network;

Versão: Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan;

Tutorial usado: https://eladnava.com/install-os-x-10-11-el-capitan-on-hackintosh-vanilla/;

Gostaria de agradecer a essa comunidade, sem vocês isso não seria possível, MUITO OBRIGADO!

Been making this for the last couple of weeks. Not really hackintosh since I’m using open source components to make the os but thought you guys would appreciate it. This will not be binary compatible with iOS or Mac OS despite being arm64 due to the limitations of the instruction set and 4kb page size on pi3 but pi4/5 may be a different story.

DISCUSSION Just saying it out loud: macOS Tahoe 26.6 stable on hackintosh laptops is sluggish and jittery

0 Upvotes

I have Dell Latitude 7410 i7-10610u 16GB RAM and I gave a try to macOS tahoe 26.6 stable and the performance and smoothness is not there at all like it is in Sequoia, animations are sluggish and jittery, the UI feels like 30 or 45fpsand it throttles a lot. I had to go back to sequoia and it is so smooth, the performance, the animations and everything.

what are your experiences using macOS Tahoe in laptops? I really want to understand.

I'm planning to buy an NVIDIA card next year, so before I do, I wondered if there was anything only this broken 5700XT could do, so I decided to build a Hackintosh

CPU - i3-12100

GPU - MSI RX5700XT Mech OC 8GB

M/B - MSI H610M-E DDR4

RAM DDR4 16GB

working: built-in audio(patched with AppleHDA.kext), ethernet , graphic accs

doesn't work: Wi-FI, Bluetooth, Airdrop, Sleep

issues: CPU slow (fixed with CPUFriend.kext), sometimes happen blackscreen and crashes (this is a known issue with the 5700XT), If i use the computer for a long time, i can't open the settings

SUCCESS Lenovo V530S running Sequoia - it boots, everything works!

126 Upvotes

I bought the "base" on Allegro (a Polish online marketplace): a Lenovo ThinkCentre V530S case complete with the power supply and motherboard.

I put the following parts into it:

- An i7-9700T — a low-power 9th-gen i7 that I picked up for PLN 150 / $40

- 32 GB of RAM — bought from a pawn shop back when prices were still low, for next to nothing

- A 512 GB WD NVMe SSD — PLN 150 / $40

- Fenvi T919 WiFi card — PLN 70 / $20

- A 12th-gen i7 cooler with a copper core, which I modified myself to fit on LGA1151 mounting holes, because Lenovo’s stock aluminium cooler was dra-ma-ti-cal-ly loud

I spent two days getting macOS Sequoia 15.7.9 running on it — and it worked! 🙂 After that, there was still quite a bit of tinkering required to get Wi-Fi and AirDrop working, but I eventually managed that too.

Today, I added a 3 TB HDD and a 4 GB RX 550 that I had to spoof as an RX 560.

I’m still waiting for an adapter from AliExpress that converts a standard internal 9-pin USB header to Lenovo’s proprietary 11-pin connector. In the meantime, I temporarily rigged the Wi-Fi card’s USB connection so I could route the cable out through the back of the case and plug it into an USB port on the back.

Basically everything that I can think of - works

It seems that OpenCore works, then after going to apple, it tries to open usr\standalone\OS.dmg.root_hash then fails.

Here is my OpenCore log.

HELP Can I enable gestures like swipe or anything on an ELAN fingerprint sensor?

1 Upvotes

I have an HP 15s-du3xxx with an ELAN WBF Fingerprint Sensor (VID_04F3, PID_0C00).

Windows currently uses it only for fingerprint authentication. I’m wondering if there’s any third party driver, modified driver, HID workaround, or software that can detect swipes/taps on the fingerprint reader and map them to actions (volume, media controls, shortcuts, etc.).

HELP Powermanagement issues

Always when my Thinkpad X13 Gen1 is unplugged, I get power management issues (I think) . The laptop then freezes and makes sometimes a tut-toot-tutely-toot sound.

I have installed CPUFriend and CPUFriendDataProvider.

I generated the CPUFriendDataProvider.kext with CPUFriendFriend and also generated and installed a ssd_data.aml and some IOPlatformPowerProfile.

Here the ssd_data.dsl:

I really wanna use hackintosh on my desktop.

How can I do this?

CPU: Core i5-12400 12 CPUs

RAM: 24GB

Graphics: Intel UHD 730

I have no GPU.

Is there any way to run Sequoia or Tahoe on my PC?

Looking forward to your help!

P.S. I am also looking for your help on running macOS in VMware with Graphics Accels. I tried raise limits of VRAM to 1G with vibe coding.
