  - Thunderbolt BIOS Assist Mode: Enabled

## What is working?
- AirDrop, Handoff (only with Broadcom cards)
- iCloud, Messages, App Store, FaceTime, etc.
- Instant WiFi Hotspot with iPhone (only with original Apple Broadcom cards, such as BCM94360CS2)
- Intel UHD 620 (QE/CI, hardware decode/encode, VP9, HDMI)
- Sound (incl. combo-jack, HDMI out)

- FileVault
- Battery (~0.5 W when TB3 hot-plug is disabled, ~2W when enabled)
- Sleep
- Power Management
- Webcam
- SD card reader

## What isn't working?
- Fingerprint reader
- Hibernation
  - I think it's fixable, but just not worth the trouble for me. Just use normal sleep (hibernationmode=3) like on real MacBooks
- Original Samsung PM NVMe SSD
  - Causing kernel panics. Not fixable, replace your drive with an aftermarket one. I used KINGSTON A2000 and WDC PC SN720, but feel free to choose anything other than Samsung
  
## Issues:
- With Intel wifi the Bluetooth is not functioning properly, AirDrop is not working. Recommended to replace it with an original Apple BCM94360CS2 card to get fully-working functionality like on real Macs
- HDMI isn't working if you start the system with plugged in, disconnect before start and reconnect it after macOS is up and running. 
  - Fixable with EDID patch
- HDMI breaks after sleep/wake, need to re-plug
  - Fixable with EDID patch
- Audio sometimes just goes blank at random (rarely): A quick lid close/open solves this, issue needs to be debugged and reported to the Acidanthera team
- Thunderbolt 3 (I only have an ADT-Link R43SG-TB3 device with RX 470, so maybe other devices are good, but I don't have more TB3 devices to test with):
  - If you disconnect the eGPU the notebook will freeze (high CPU usage), you need to restart
  - After sleep hot-plug is not working with the TB3 eGPU (device not detected)
    - Workaround: Plug the TB3 in, put the notebook into sleep, wake it up. It may fail sometimes, try it again if that is the case

## Installation:
- Create a macOS USB Installer with any method you now.
 - For creating Monterey Installer USB on Windows, use my guide: <a href="https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/346703-guide-creating-clover-macos-big-sur-installer-usb-on-windows/" target="_blank">[GUIDE] Creating Clover macOS Monterey Installer USB on Windows</a>
 - On macOS you can download the macOS Installer from App Store, or with <a href="https://github.com/corpnewt/gibMacOS" target="_blank">gibMacOS</a>, and create the USB Installer with the official <a href="https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT201372" target="_blank">"createinstallmedia"</a> method
 - On Windows you can create High Sierra - Catalina Installer USB with gibMacOS
- Mount your USB’s EFI and paste my CLOVER and BOOT folder from my bootpack
folder to it
 - On Windows you can mount your USB’s EFI with MiniTool Partition Wizard
 - Open MiniTool, select your USB drive’s EFI partition, right click, select “Change Letter”, Click OK, Apply, OK
 - After that you can manage the EFI using Explorer++ in administrator mode
 - On macOS you can use Terminal to mount, or use EFI Mountain Snow.app to mount your USB EFI
 - If there is no EFI folder inside the EFI partition you need to create that first
 
Example Structure:

 <img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/33935034/150014815-9ff78610-aa98-45ad-9fe9-75b4d2c73886.png">

- After finished, next step is to boot the Installer USB
    - I suggest to boot with config_debug.plist because if anything will go wrong you’ll see the logs of what causing that. 
    - In Clover, select “Options” below the partitions, select “Configs”, then select “config_debug.plist” 
- Install macOS 
    - Don’t forget to boot from your USB after restarts 
        - If you install Monterey boot from Preboot only! 
- After installing you need to mount your USB’s EFI and your System Drive’s EFI then copy the CLOVER and BOOT folder to your System Drive’s EFI  
    - (again, if there is no EFI folder, you need to create it first) 
- Unmount and remove your USB Installer and restart your system

## Post Installation
- Open up your config.plist with Clover Configurator.app, on SMBIOS tab, generate new SMBIOS, then you can log-in to iServices now
- Download <a href="https://github.com/zhen-zen/YogaSMC">YogaSMC.app</a> to manage your fan speed, charging threshold, other SMC related things

That’s it!
