Radeon RX 4XX/5XX standalone system, AMDRadeonX4250.kext (GVA support H264) does not support HEVC HW

For Radeon RX 4XX/5XX standalone system, AMDRadeonX4250.kext (GVA support H264) does not support HEVC HW decode/encode, need edit AMDRadeonX4250.kext info.plist, copy below settings from AMDRadeonX5000.kext info.plist to fully enable HW HEVC support,

IOGVACodec
IOGVAHEVCDecode
IOGVAHEVCEncode
IOGVAVTCapabilities

The best is create a dummy kext injector (similar to verde.kext method) and place it into Clover/kext/Other folder.

Spoiler: I love it. For some reason it feels much more...don't know...friendly to the touch than Macbook Pro 2018. Somehow with the MBP I constantly feared breaking it (this might be because out of five I tried none lasted longer than two weeks before the keys began to malfunction). This laptop just feels friendly and sturdy. Plus it fits a 14" screen where MBP fits 13.3" and weighs the same, 1.37 kg.

This thread is meant to be a continuation of kgp's original post for users using ASUS X299 motherboards. The goal is to keep the support for these motherboards alive, publish updates, configurations, hardware, and so on.

I'd like to thank @kgp for his effort so far and hope he'll be back in the future! I wish him all the best...

[Solved] No Shutdown or Reboot in Mojave

This Hack has no problem shutting down or rebooting when booted from High Sierra 10.13.6, but freezes at the spinning white wheel when I try shutting down or rebooting in Mojave. Everything is the same = config.plist, BIOS Settings, & Kexts. I've included my zipped EFI folder that I use in Mojave & High Sierra (I can boot from High Sierra from a USB 3.0 drive).
Please help, otherwise I may have to go back to HS full time.

The hardware in my Sig is what I'm currently using.

Thanks,

Overview

The purpose of this guide is to provide a step-by-step guide to install Mojave, High Sierra, Sierra, or El Capitan on the Kaby Lake Intel NUC7 series Intel NUC mini computers. My NUC7 is the NUC7i7BNH, although I expect the guide will work on other similar models. Preliminary support for the NUC8 "Bean Canyon" has also been added.

I installed with 8GB RAM (one stick), and an SM951/AHCI M.2 SSD. Recommend two sticks in dual-channel.

Can't Update From Settings / Combo Update | Reboot Back Into Previous Version

Dear gurus,

I'm currently on 10.14.3 as I can't update any further. Every time I try doing so, the system reboots and then proceeds to boot into macOS 10.14.3 again. I've tried enabling SIP in Clover and booting from a partition named 'Install macOS' subsequently, but all I get is a funny screen with purple lines and an extremely slow progress bar - to the point of its motion being virtually unnoticeable. Any ideas as to how to remedy this?

Many thanks in advance,
Illusive

The next version of macOS is expected to be announced at Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference this June. If Apple sticks to the current format, it should be nicknamed after a place or region in California.

What will the next macOS be called?

10.9 Mavericks
10.10 Yosemite
10.11 El Capitan
10.12 Sierra
10.13 High Sierra
10.14 Mojave

EDIT:
Now up and running.
Problem was with installer wanting to do a firmware upgrade before installing. Stork suggested changing system definition to iMac 14,2 and installing with that and then changing it back to Mac Pro 5,1 (thanks, Stork). Did that and upgrade from High Sierra to Mojave went smoothly. APFS on SSD seems a bit faster than HFS+ on a platter drive; apps open and close quickly. So far, even with 12 apps running at once I have not seen the "spinning beachball" of system...

Should I be able to achieve sleep/wake? (Intel HD 630 GPU)

$

It's my understanding that the Intel HD 630 GPU has had issues in the past with sleep/wake glitches, mostly related to the number and type of ports being different on actual iMacs vs. PC motherboards. As the method detailed in https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-intel-framebuffer-patching-using-whatevergreen.256490/ allows you to now modify that information (and I have done so successfully to set the number of ports/pipes to 2 and set the second port type to HDMI, and am now...

I've been trying my best to get 10.14.5 to work on my HP Spectre x360, but I'm running into issues with the Intel GPU (i7-8565U/UHD 620/Whiskey Lake) and I'm at my wits end at this point. I've gotten macOS to boot successfully and the keyboard and touchscreen working.
