#DELL XPS 13 HOW TO ALT F4 INSTALL#
(this will be covered below by using Kext Utility to install them). Once OSX is installed, these kexts are then placed into the /System/Library/Extensions OSX folder to speed up the boot time. Kexts place in this folder are loaded to add additional functionality to what OSX offers.
#DELL XPS 13 HOW TO ALT F4 DRIVERS#
Kexts are essentially your drivers for OSX and are required to make certain devices on your computer to work. I recommend downloading Xcode from the app store (large file as it’s the full iOS/macOS software development app) for viewing the ist to make it easier to view and modify with proper formatting. There will be a couple of things to modify in this guide listed below.

The config included is already set up for the most part. There is too much in here to go over and it is worth reading the Clover wikia to understand the things that you can modify here. This is the general config folder for Clover. Here’s a (very) brief overview of the clover file attached to the post so you have a better idea of what we’re editing: Minor screen garble for the apple logo for the last 2 seconds of startup USB-C: I don't have any USB-C devices currently so I can't test this out If you do get one the easiest way to put it in is to attach the antenna’s on the card first and then insert it into the slot on the motherboardīrightness keys: I’ve tried everything suggested in the previous XPS 13 thread but had no luck with these so farįacetime+imessage: check this guide to work towards getting these to work as it’s important to find your own unique valid and unused system IDs I highly recommend getting the DW1560 wifi card if you’re not afraid to open up the laptop (it uses pretty sturdy clips so it’s scary opening it for the first time).

In my experience the stock card randomly stopped working as well and you had to click on the wifi and turn it off and on again to get it going again (you can do this without needing to restart). about 50%-60% of the time your wifi will be working until you shut it down). one that's done, boot into windows (up to the initial lock screen is fine as long as your wifi is on), then restart the computer (restart, don't use shut down) and boot into your OSX installation. the workaround found previously in this thread requires a windows installation as dual boot and is as follows: in OSX, go into your wifi preferences and add your network ID/password (wifi isn't working yet so you'll have to add it manually). **if you're using the stock wifi card, the bluetooth works but the wifi won't turn off. not a huge deal, I use a bluetooth mouse most of the time anyway * touchpad sometimes sticks when you try and drag things if you enable tap to touch+drag and you have to tap again to get it to unstick. Wifi + bluetooth (I'm using the DW1560 wifi card I ordered on eBay, the stock wifi card sort of works but is a big hassle**) can't drag to scroll but that's probably a limitation with OSX) Touchscreen (basically only actions that involve a single tap/dragging files works.

#DELL XPS 13 HOW TO ALT F4 UPDATE#
This guide is for El Capitan 10.11.6 and you’ll want to update to the latest BIOS before continuing (1.4.4 as of this writing).
#DELL XPS 13 HOW TO ALT F4 PATCH#
Just make sure you patch your own SSDT/DSDT that you got from your computer as my SSDTs/DSDT may cause a KP for your computer (more on that below) This post should work for both qHD and FHD screen resolution models of the XPS 13 9350. If you don’t understand something I encourage you to look up more detailed guides on specific topics in the guide for a better understanding of it or post questions here (it’s also possible I wasn’t clear enough at some points and will try to clarify if someone points out something that wasn’t well worded) I tried to make this guide simple but with a fair amount to make it easy for more people to join in on the hackintosh goodness.
