- Discrete graphic card never going to work!
- Touchpad Gestures works after adding patched DSDT/SSDT (XOSI) in OC
- Sound Works perfectly with Layout 31 and ComboJack for headset.
- HDMI Won't work, since the port is hardwired to the dGpu (disabled).
- Everything else works
- Custom DSDT/SSDT files for this particular model has been created using dumping the DSDT from windows 10 and then modifying it for mac os to work.
Note : Please don't use this if you're using a different model, it will definitely cause problem, also kindly remove the kexts RtWlanU.kext and RtWlanU1827.kext from kexts folder and from config.plist [kernel -> Add], these kexts are for usb wifi dongle (tp-link tl-wn725n).
