I needed to add CPUFriend and a data SSDT (see SSDT-CPUF) to get it to idle below 1.20GHz (it goes down to about 0.80 now), but other than that, power management seems fine and it has plenty of power. The i7-8550U worked pretty well out of the box.

Apple Watch Unlock - something with the third party wifi card causes failure.

USB-C functionality on the TB3 port (it can be enabled but it breaks other things).

Changing the keyboard color through some custom apps, also enabling the logo light.

Displayport output on the TB3 port (breaks after sleep?).

HDMI (some graphical glitches at certain resolutions, but they come and go).

Sound through headphone jack and speakers (including persistence through sleep).

Wireless (wifi, BT, Continuity, Airdrop).

However I replaced the SSD with an Samsung 970 EVO and the wifi card with a Lenovo 04X6020.

Thunderbolt : Intel Alpine Ridge JHL6340.

Here is the hardware specification of my Blade as I bought it: I will not help people who try to ask for help in the issues. I do not recommend using the EFI without understanding what you are doing! Read the Dortania guide, read my notes here, and understand what you are getting into.

I recommend reading everything so you know what you're getting yourself into. The only system files I modified were the screen resolution overrides to allow me to run the internal display at 5K HiDPI.ĭisclaimer: I am not responsible if you mess up your computer with this setup. This install aims to be as vanilla as possible, so no modifications should be needed to the actual mac operating system files. This is not a full step-by-step guide, rather a few specific notes to compliment a full guide like The Dortania Vanilla Guide. Hey there, I got several requests to release my EFI and show how I made my Razer Blade Stealth hackintosh, so here it is.
