ARTLINE Home G43 running Hackintosh

This repository serves the purpose of keeping track my configuration for the specific device I own, but it might be useful for someone who uses the same hardware.

Here is a Reddit discussion.

NOTE: I have removed my serial number and other private info from SMBIOS section of config.plist, please follow guides (e.g. 1, 2) to fill those with "correct" values.

Hackintosh

I have successfully run this setup on Mojave (10.14) for a half a year, and upgraded to Catalina (10.15) in October, 2019.

WARNING: My config is a compilation of a number of configs I found on the Internet and it might have useless items, but it works for me. My EFI setup for Mojave did not work well for Catalina (after OTA update I booted to a screen with "striped" Apple logos), so I did many trials and errors to find the new config (ended up basing on @xiaooloong's asrock_deskmini310_hackintosh EFI with some of the config.plist customizations from my old Mojave config.plist)

My failing attempts were based on others work, which I want to mention:

• Vanilla Desktop Guide
• @littlegtplr's Coffee Lake builds
• @PoomSmart's ASUS-FX504GE
• Ongoing Status of Designare Z390 with i7-9700K
• @yuqi's Deskmini-310-Hackintosh

Works

• Accelerated Graphics (it was a hassle to get LVDS display working)
• Ethernet (RealtekRTL8111 kext works like a charm)
• Wi-Fi (I had to replace Intel chip with a supported Broadcom one)
• Bluetooth (it is the same chip as Wi-Fi)
• AirDrop
• Audio
• Built-in speaker (I had to spoof the layout-id and found that 2, 18, and 53 layouts work for me)
• Sleep and wake (it was not reliable with my Mojave setup, but it seems to be working 100% in Catalina)
• Shutdown

Does not work

Please, let me know if you have a suggestion on how to fix these in the linked issue.

• Reboot hangs (a short power button push finishes it)
• Backlight control
• Microphone input

Not tested

• HDMI
• DisplayPort
• Card Reader
