thinkpad-x1c5-hackintosh's Introduction

SUMMARY:

In short, x1c5-hackintosh is very stable and is currently my daily driver. I use macOS and Windows on this machine and both provide an enjoyable experience. Overall macOS is a rocksolid performer so I can fully recommend this.

NEEDED:

A macOS machine would be VERY useful: to create install drives, and for when your ThinkPad cannot boot. Though it is not completely necessary.
Flash drive, 16GB or more.
Xcode works fine for editing plist files, but I prefer PlistEdit Pro.
MaciASL, for patching ACPI tables.
IOJones, for diagnosis.
Hackintool, for diagnosis.

WHERE TO START:

Explore links included this README, especially those in references and other x1c6-hackintosh repos.

Once you are ready, follow the series of README files included docs/.
1_README-HARDWAREandBIOS: Requirements before starting.
2_README-installMEDIA: Creating the macOS install drive.
3_README-POSTinstallation: Settings and tweaks post installation.
4_README-ACPIpatching: The hardest and most time consuming part, patching the system ACPI table for battery status, brightness, sleep, thunderbolt, thunderbolt hotplugging, etc...
5_README-other.md: for other notices

While you can plug-and-play most of my hotpatches if you have an x1c5, I still suggest that you dump and disassemble your own DSDT. This is imprortant as your DSDT maybe different from mine. And furthermore, you get to learn more about what's actually going on.

thinkpad-x1c5-hackintosh's Issues

After I used your EFI, the startup only has window.

@B0hrer
Hi,
i'm first install macos，

About turn on the laptop with the type-c device plugged(monitor)

First, thanks a lot for your EFI file sharing(Your EFI file is very comprehensive, and can bring a better experience about hacintosh on x1c 5th). Then, I use x1c 5th too, and this is my configuration (https://github.com/HeartAndSoul001/my-EFI-for-x1-carbon-5th/blob/master/README.md). And now, I have one question that the monitor built in will not be lighten when power on with type-c device plug(a 4k monitor). So, I want to consult you about it if you have the same problem too and please give me some advice. In addition, I want to consult you about how to open hidpi on external monitor. Looking forward to your reply as soon as possible >_<

''USB device disabled'' problem (ipad pro 11)

Thanks a lot for this wonderful repository and the EFI you have shared!

I am using almost the same machine as yours, Thinkpad x1c5 5gen 20HR (different from HQ). The Catalina 10.15.5 installation works pretty well, with only one problem.

Description:
When I connect my ipad pro 11' to this computer via USB, a badge showing "usb accessories disabled unplug the accessory using too much power to re-enable usb devices" pops out and this device cannot be accessed.

Supplementary Info:
Though this ipad pro is not shown in the sidebar of Finder, it shows in System Report as "ipad" in "USB 3.0 bus":

Current Available (mA): 500
Current Required (mA): 500
Extra Operating Current (mA): 1900
Sleep Current (mA): 2400

This problem is not eliminated when the ipad is 100% charged.

When I connect the same ipad pro to my friend's real Macbook pro, it is recognized normally, and System Report shows:

Current Available (mA): 500
Current Required (mA): 500
Extra Operating Current (mA): 1600
Sleep Current (mA): 2100

When this ipad pro is connected to the thunderbolt/USB-C port of the Thinkpad, the computer recognizes it normally (after rebooting for the thunderbolt port to work). Additionally, my iphone connects to the computer via USB with no problem.

I know Hackintosh always has this problem or that, but your configuration is really close to perfect. The functionality to connect my ipad would make my daily work a lot easier. I searched for similar issues on google and Hackintosh forums but got nothing similar, but I suspect it has something to do with the USB power limitations. Could you take a look at this issue and maybe offer some advice?

AcpiBattery non work

Hi, I installed all you have posted but I have always problem with ACPIBattery..
Can you Helpme?

无法引导

在efi进入安装，但是苹果下面的进度条跑完之后就没办法继续了，卡住了。没法进入系统安装界面。我的也是x1 5th
不过我的cpu是i5-7200u。

ACPI Exception: AE_BAD_PARAMETER

Booting stops at

ACPI Exception: AE_BAD_PARAMETER, Could not install PciConfig handler for Root Bridge PCI0 (20160930/evrgnini-340)

and hangs for about half an hour. After that the messages from the attached screenshot appear.
Soon after that the screen gets garbled.

Shutdown issue

Thank you so much for the detailed guide.

I am new to hackintosh.... I’m lucky that I have exact same laptop as you.... so I just copy your open core and almost everything works right.

Only one issue is that x1c won’t shutdown or reboot. After clicking shutdown or reboot in macOS, x1 turn off the screen but it will not power off. I have to hold down the power bottom for couple seconds to force it.

Is there any solution for open core?

Thanks

Can you support i5-7200u, thank you

Sleep and Brightness problem

Hi,
Thank you for your EFI, it worked for me.

I modified my DSDT and SSDT. But there's still some problem:

Can't really sleep. When I choose "Sleep" in the menu, the screen turned to black, but power consumed still very quickly. And closing cover also do not work.
I can't adjust brightness from keyboard.

Are there some solution for these problem?
Thank you very much.
