i found that under USBPorts/info.plistI/OKitPersonalities, there are 2 lines of model related information:

iMac19,2-XHC

and

model iMac19,2

Wonder if these information can be eliminated during generation of USBPorts?
e.g. iMac19,2-XHC -> XHC and delete model key

So that the kext can be used with other models when needed.
e.g. switching from iMac19,2 to MacPro7,1

thanks

The help text for USB Port Patching has wrong -uia_exclude_ss uia_include=HS01,HS02 boot flags

Look in Hackintool 2.9.3. -- USB -- click ( i ) or Menu -- Hackintool Help -- USB Patching
file:///Applications/Hackintool.app/Contents/Resources/Help/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/USB.html

The text:

10. Reboot with -uia_exclude_ss uia_include=HS01,HS02 boot flags

Should read:
10. Reboot with -uia_exclude_hs uia_include=HS01,HS02 boot flags

Legend:
-uia_exclude_hs: excludes all HSxx ports
-uia_exclude_ss: excludes all SSxx ports

Also the help text could benefit from some updates especially including instructions for OpenCore, since Hackintool supports OpenCore.

The help text from USB Map also has a lot of helpful explanations which could be added where applicable.

I don't know when this bug begins, but it worked well some days ago.

Hey!

First of all, awesome tool! New golden standard app for the Hackintosh community!
Keep up the good work.

My issue
When I run Utilities -> Rebuild KextCache & Repair Permissions I get this red coloured error log in the end:

Kext rejected due to improper filesystem permissions: <OSKext 0x7fa446621880 [0x7fff912328c0]> { URL = "file:///Library/Apple/System/Library/Extensions/AppleKextExcludeList.kext/", ID = "com.apple.driver.KextExcludeList" }
/Library/Apple/System/Library/Extensions/AppleKextExcludeList.kext does not authenticate; omitting.

Hackintool Versions (basically any) : 3.2.4 (0324) - 3.4.0.0340
Catalina 10.15.4 (19E287)
Clover 5108
GateKeeper disabled

What can it be?
So it's the famous blacklist kext: AppleKextExcludeList.kext...

I already tried to do these steps with no success

• replace the kext with the original copy found at:

(S/L/Templates/Data/Library/Apple/System/Library/Extensions/AppleKextExcludeList.kext

• manually fix permissions
• chowned and rooted the sh1t out of it
• fix parent dir folder permissions

sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/AppleKextExcludeList.kext
sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/AppleKextExcludeList.kext

...and nothing :(
..Google is also not a good friend.

How can I fix this? Maybe this is system integrity protection related? I have SIP off.

Maybe I messed up the file (I was playing with it):
My AppleKextExcludeList.kext file size on latest Catalina 10.15.4 (19E287) is:

3 024 179 bytes

Yours too?

PS: Rhetorical question/suggestion: why don't you add "Clover+OC Configurator in One" functionality too (all in one)?

Hi, I found that if i use this amazing tool on a mac with iGPU disabled (for example an iMac Pro or an AMD Based machine booted with opencore) this tool is not able to generate the patch required and it does not provide the AAPL,ig-platform-id string (as well as all the others defined by the user in the above ticks) even if this one is selected in the Patch main menu.

this issue is not present in the pc i use with the iGPU enabled in headless mode, (tested also in a machine that uses iGPU to drive a display, and it's working as soon as there's an IGPU enabled)

Is it possible to make the "Generate Patch" feature independent from the host system?
(maybe by adding the missing parameters required adding user-defined ticks near the ones which are already there)

Thanks in advance

I originally thought this was an issue of my macOS which has been used for quite a long time, but after I reinstalled the system today, the bug is still there.

I'm not sure whether it is a change of sending packages from the server (downloading source code as zip on GitHub produces a similar progress bar in Google Chrome) or it's a bug of the app's UI.

Thanks again for your awesome work!

Hi @headkaze !

I'm so excited that Hackintool is finally an open-source software!
I think it's better to have a license (GPL, BSD, etc) to protect this wonderful project.

:P

There are no three circles circled in the picture when customizing。
Is there a similar phenomenon?

Hi

There are three templates for one motherboard:

Designare Z390 [i9-9900K_ZISQO] 
Designare CFG V1
Designare CFG V2

I don't see anywhere that explains the differences?

Thanks.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to Boot tab
2. Select Clover and let Hackintool list an update
3. Select Update
4. When the Save dialogue prompt appears, select cancel

A secondary Clover update window emerges but hitting cancel does not dismiss it.

Mostly done, but been going thru and creating custom icons for all the various functions.

Here's a preview:

It worked fine in the Clover bootloader, but it does not work in the open core bootloader.

Hi! @headkaze
An impressive fix for HDMI was just merged into Whatevergreen

https://github.com/acidanthera/WhateverGreen/pull/24/files#diff-f57337b786936aee0f3bedf3fe5eee07R1668

I believe it will be awesome if Hackintool can generate this fix as well!😀

Thank you very much!

Hi @headkaze sorry for reporting this issue late on my system, I think the last couple of releases don't show my network kext anymore, in your Extensions tab. I know this was discussed on another forum, not sure what you've implemented today and if this is a bug or not.

Few months ago, I used the Intel LAN driver by acidanthera's repo:
as.acidanthera.mieze.IntelMausi (1.0.2)
that was detected by Hackintool. Then Mieze released some weeks later her own update:
com.insanelymac.IntelMausiEthernet (2.5.0)

On today's version v3.3.7 the latter kext is not detected/shown in the list. Can you confirm some code tweaking perhaps? If I uncheck "Show installed" it's not shown either.

My I suggest to separate them as IntelMausi and IntelMausiEthernet now that a) by default you do not show all kexts and people won't confuse the two, and b) they have different repos? Instead, people with either kext installed, are covered, and shouldn't be mixing them up...

This is not a critical issue, as this LAN kext is rarely updated, just thought of reporting it.
Thank you.

Hello, just updated from version 2.8.6, and now the PCI Tab is crashing. Tested across two Hackintoshes.

I suspect it has something to do with the new addition of the aspm tab.

Hi @headkaze thank you very much for your great work and great tool.

If you have the spare time, I'd like to propose a small feature to add.

Perhaps, on both System->System and System->Serial tabs, the info displayed for Board Serial Number could check if it's well a 17-digit number as iMessage won't work, so you can put a red line highlighting the need to be fixed just the one I saw recently in Power->Power tab.

I personally had missed that field (and I had copied my BoardSerialNumber to MLB in my Clover config) and only recently saw it thanks to your Clover Boot Log in Logs tab, that showed a "warning" at the very end (about iMessage not working due to the digits missing etc.) Question: Can a tool check also the MLB of the hack?

Once you implement this, and since RED is a warning colour, perhaps consider then changing the colour of the Patch->Connectors to orange, to avoid confusion, i.e. same as you do Disks->Disks orange one.

Warm regards, thanks again, be safe and well.

Hi! @headkaze
I'm so glad that this channel is finally ready!
I'll update the files to the latest version, and make a PR soon.
Could you please initialize this repo?

Cheers!

1. Load USB tab.
2. Delete all ports but one (doesn't matter which here)
3. Export.
4. Import.

I'm seeing duplicate entries, the correct one and one missing the location ID.

In fact, the import button doesn't seem to replace all the current entries. It should (and maybe I'm remembering wrong, but did in previous versions?).

I suggest adding another button if you want to append an existing file with the current list.

Hey Headkaze
It seems The Turkish localization file had not included in the Hackintool Project Info as one of the default languages. Therefore, the interface returns to English, when the app automatically updated.
Thanks.

As the title suggests, it outputs a .reg file that contains nothing in it except for the regular .reg lines.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BTHPORT\Parameters\Keys]

On the USB Tab when I click Export nothing happens, only current folder opens in Finder.

If you can add
https://github.com/zxystd/IntelBluetoothFirmware
https://github.com/zxystd/AppleIntelWifiAdapter
and change CodecCommander to repo Sniki

HI! @headkaze
Recently when I was viewing Hackintool's PCI section to patch my SSDT-PCIS. I discovered that after you leave the PCI section for a long time, Hackintool will keep downloading the PCI ID list again and again without stopping and causes Hackintool to not responding for a period of time(Installing the list).

This is probably a misunderstanding on my part, but ... that might help you make Hackintool a better tool for the majority who may have limited comprehension of the correct kexts to use?

As shown in my included image, Hackintool 2.8.0 shows FakeSMC 1800 as installed, but with an 'update available'.

I grabbed FakeSMC from https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-fakesmc-kozlek/downloads/ and the date is 9/15/18.

I looked at the suggested url of: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-FakeSMC-kozlek/tree/master/FakeSMC and noticed that the last commit was 6/7/17 - which seems earlier than my version?

I gather that RehabMan may have been inactive recently, with some of his code forked and modified. How do I resolve this? What's the 'correct' kext to use for 10.14.6?

I've thought of switching to VirtualSMC, but Clover still seems to use FakeSMC to determine whether to inject kexts, so I can't tell if that's the way to go? I suppose it would show in the 'superseder' column at that point?

I love the tool - and have one small feature request.

If you added a checkbox to the 'installed kexts' tab for 'only show installed', this would make it a bit easier to see the 'big picture' quickly. And a button to output to a text file a list of the installed kext names and their versions would be very useful in documenting version changes to a Hackintosh volume.

Might even pull the kexts to be injected, .aml's, drivers used, etc. from the Clover EFI to a text file? I spend a lot of time documenting, making Carbon Copy backups, and then making small incremental changes. This would really help to document that current state of the custom kexts installed in S/L/E and the EFI setup.

Hi!

The new added tooltips localization doesn't function.

I've already translated all of them and I replaced localizable.strings into the current version, but it failed to function.

Missing localization

Cheers!

I have tried several times building BrcmPatchRAM from the source code, but Hackintool only builds Lilu, not BrcmPatchRAM

It seems that Acidanthera has made it work with no additional files and converts.

I was trying to fix Current Framebuffer. When I select Framebuffer-Current Version, I cannot choose 'Intel Generation - Coffee Lake', it jumps back to 'Ice Lake(LP)' every time.

This won't happen when using macOS 10.14

Hi @headkaze
I have a question. The thunderbolt type c should be set to “Internal” or "TypeC+Sw". I don't know how to set it correctly. Thank you for helping

I'm not sure why it just started doing this. It was working until recently, generating the patch output without issue.

I'm trying to set up a headless GPU. I'm in the Patch section. I select some options, such as "Intel Generation" and "Platform ID" on the "Info" page. When I go to "Patch", I cannot get it to give me anything but the skeleton of the DeviceProperties for anything related to video. I'll get some properties when I try throwing in audio, but video suddenly gives me nothing and there's no explanation. Even checking "All" will dump a lot of info, but not for the iGPU. I've tried disabling the "Auto-detect changes" box and authenticating with my username/password to make changes, but no dice. No matter what options I check, whether it's in "General" or "Advanced", I get an empty Properties section in the generated patch output. The iGPU is recognized in the System -> GFX0 section.

I've tried trashing the prefs in ~/Library/Preferences and using an older version, 3.3.4 I believe. No luck.

HI @headkaze ,

I really enjoy the new UI, however, the localization files are out of sync right now and plenty of the strings are broken, could you please fix it? Thanks a lot!

Have a nice day!

Description:

Some text blurs on the new UI on a 1080p display when fake HIDPI is NOT enabled, while others work fine.

Env:

• OS: macOS 10.15.3 (19D76)
• Hackintool Version: V3.2.2
• Language selected: Chinese zh-Hans

Steps to reproduce:

1. Use a 1080p display
2. Disable HIDPI
3. Go to System -> Peripherals
4. Stare at the values under Framebuffer, Revision & Type

Screenshot for reference

• HIDPI disabled
  
• HIDPI enabled
  

i've got a pre config.plist
for ga-x299 aorus ultra gaming, Z390 designare, Z370 aorus gaming 3,
Z370-UD3H, Z390 gaming sli, Asus Z370 plus tuf gaming, Asus Z87 pro,
HP Z420, Z620.

and those pre-config.plist are working good in MOJAVE 10.14.4 even if have an igpu or not.
how about include pre-install with config.plist file on hackintool?

PS: I reported this on Tonymacx86 a week ago but I don't know why the Admin deleted it.

Hi @headkaze
I have a Lenovo ThinkPad X240 which is Haswell and has EH01 Controller where on some devices Touchscreen and in my device it's a EMV smart card reader.
The problem is that the EMV Smart Card Reader is tied to EH01 > PR11 > HP15 port
With USBInjectAll.kext + my custom SSDT-UIAC (SSDT-USB) everything is fine.

However i wanted to get rid of the SSDT-USB and USBInjectAll.kext to have a cleaner setup with just USBPorts.kext

There is a problem with generation of EH01 and EH02 ports with your hackintool.
HP15 doesn't appear on IOREG and just the PR11 hub.

Attached you can find both Ioregs (with USBInjectall+SSDT and with USBPorts.kext) and my SSDT-UIAC (SSDT-USB) so you can check the problem.

USB Kext export not working in 3.3.3. After pushing button nothing happing. In 3.3.2 works fine.

I have a command to enable AMD's graphics for hardware acceleration (RX480/RX580/VEGA),
and what if you want to run it with one click on the Hackintool?

With the latest update Turkish guides (USB, Audio, Display) are only available in the Menu / Help. In the main interface the guides come only in English.

Hi Headkaze, I've just updated to the latest version of Hackintool and I noticed an issue
I'm using a self compiled version of OpenCore which includes the latest changes in master (0.5.2).
The version is displayed correctly but the update checker seems to have some trouble comparing the versions.

When we try to choose another disk cant selectable. Always the main disk is showing green and this is normal behavior. But on the other section such as USB, NVRAM, Boot etc. everything is selectable. Normally when we select anything it is marked in blue. But on the Disk section, we can't select any disk. With the latest version 3.4.0, it no longer appears in green either.

😁

Hackintool v2.9.3 installs AirPortAtheros40.kext into /L/E/ which is deprecated. The log shows:

cp -R /Applications/Hackintool.app/Contents/Resources/Kexts/AirPortAtheros40.kext /Library/Extensions

Please update the tool to install kexts into the recommended locations such as OC/Kexts or CLOVER/kexts/Other

For AirPortAtheros40.kext to work IO80211Family.kext needs to be loaded. For example side by side, sequentially like this in OpenCore:

<dict>
    <key>BundlePath</key>
    <string>IO80211Family.kext</string>
    <key>Enabled</key>
    <true/>
    <key>ExecutablePath</key>
    <string>Contents/MacOS/IO80211Family</string>
    <key>PlistPath</key>
    <string>Contents/Info.plist</string>
</dict>
<dict>
    <key>BundlePath</key>
    <string>AirPortAtheros40.kext</string>
    <key>Enabled</key>
    <true/>
    <key>ExecutablePath</key>
    <string>Contents/MacOS/AirPortAtheros40</string>
    <key>PlistPath</key>
    <string>Contents/Info.plist</string>
</dict>

or nested in the Plugins directory, like this:

<dict>
  <key>BundlePath</key>
  <string>IO80211Family.kext</string>
  <key>Enabled</key>
  <true/>
  <key>ExecutablePath</key>
  <string>Contents/MacOS/IO80211Family</string>
  <key>PlistPath</key>
  <string>Contents/Info.plist</string>
</dict>
<dict>
  <key>BundlePath</key>
  <string>IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AirPortAtheros40.kext</string>
  <key>Enabled</key>
  <true/>
  <key>ExecutablePath</key>

Priority is -10

It looks like #acidanthera adopted a submodule in VoodooPS2 to bring in support for #VoodooInput.
This change is a breaking change for Hackintool which at the current stage does not support repos using submodules: simply cloning the repo is not sufficient anymore and a further step is actually required (git submodule update --init --recursive) before starting the build.
