• If the trackpad doesn't work during the installation, please plug a wired mouse or a wireless mouse projector before the installation. After the installation completes, open Terminal.app and run sudo kextcache -i /. Wait for the process ending and restart the device. Enjoy your trackpad!
• Complete EFI packs are available in the releases page.
• Please don't clone or download the master branch for daily use.

• Build the latest beta EFI by running the following command in Terminal:

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/daliansky/XiaoMi-Pro-Hackintosh/master/makefile.sh)"

• Or running the following command in Terminal:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/daliansky/XiaoMi-Pro-Hackintosh.git
cd XiaoMi-Pro-Hackintosh
./makefile.sh

• A complete replacement of BOOT and CLOVER(or OC) folders is required. Delete these two folders and copy them from the release pack.
• You can also update Clover EFI by running the following command in Terminal:

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/daliansky/XiaoMi-Pro-Hackintosh/master/install.sh)"

• Use ALCPlugFix to fix unworking jack after replug
• Use DVMT_and_0xE2_fix to set DVMT to 64mb and unlock CFG
• Use xzhih's one-key-hidpi to improve quality of system UI
  • Support 1440x810 HiDPI resolution
  • On macOS > 10.13.6, to enable higher HiDPI resolution (<1600x900), you need to use DVMT_and_0xE2_fix to set DVMT to 64mb first
• Use one-key-cpufriend to modify CPU power management

You need to rebuild the kext cache after every system update. Use Kext Utility.app or type sudo kextcache -i / in Terminal.app. Then restart. If this still doesn't work, try to press F9.

Starts from VoodooI2C v2.4.1, the click down action is emulated to force touch, which causes the failure of click down and drag gestures. You can turn off Force Click in SysPref - Trackpad or choose three finger drag in SysPref - Accessibility - Mouse & Trackpad - Trackpad Options.

If you have black screen for five minutes and get no response from the device, please force restart your laptop(Long press power button) and choose Boot macOS Install from ~ entry.

For Clover users, press Fn+F11 when you are in Clover boot page. Then Clover will refresh nvram.plist, and lock message should be removed.
For OC users, press Esc to enter the boot menu during startup. Then, press Space key and choose Clean NVRAM.

It is not recommended to open FileVault. You can press Fn + F3 in the Clover boot page and choose the icon with FileVault. Then you can boot in the system and close FileVault.

Many people met this problem by using the new version of AptioMemoryFix.efi. A workaround is to delete AptioMemoryFix.efi in /CLOVER/drivers/UEFI/ and replace it with the old version provided in #93.

Also make sure Sandbox and Hyper-V functions in Windows 10 are disabled.

First, in macOS, open SysPref - Startup Disk. Choose the target system.
Then, open /EFI/OC/config.plist, and turn off ShowPicker.
When you want to switch OS, press Esc during startup to call the boot menu.

You can view Changelog for detailed information.

All the project is made for free, but you can reward me if you want.
