Version 1.1.1 - Hotfix - 09.09.2023

• From now on, you can download DEBUG and RELEASE versions of this EFI.
• Enabled OpenCore boot picker in both versions.
• Replaced USBFix.kext with USBToolBox.kext & UTBMap.kext. Although USBFix only needs one kext to function, USB ports stop responding after sleep & wake cycle (unless you plug your USB devices off & plug them back in, which is inconvenient.)

Version 1.1 - 26.08.2023

Changelog:

• Updated OpenCore to 0.9.4 and kexts to their latest versions (don't update VoodooI2C.kext, it breaks physical trackpad buttons.) You can now update AppleALC, update to layout=69 is merged with the main repo.
• Replaced USBToolBox.kext & UTBMap.kext with USBFix.kext

Version 1.0 - 22.06.2023

Changelog:

• Updated OpenCore to 0.9.3 and kexts to their latest versions (don't update VoodooI2C.kext, it breaks physical trackpad buttons. also don't update AppleALC.kext until my pull request gets merged with the main repo)
• Added headphone patch (static noise problem should be gone for good now, i tested the new layout for 4 months.)

Release Candidate 3 - 15.02.2023

Changelog:

• Updated OpenCore, AppleALC, and WhateverGreen to their latest versions.
• Added a cosmetic SSDT (SSDT-ACAD)

Release Candidate 2 - 22.01.2023

It is highly advised to update the EFI to RC2 (or just update AppleALC.kext!)

Changelog:

• Fixed static noise after power state change (AC to BAT) by setting connector types for Line In (0x19) and HP Out (0x21) to Combination, instead of 1/8" Stereo/Mono. Also fixed Pin Sense of Node 0x19 (0x24 to 0x22.)

Known bugs:

• Sound disappears on headsets after some time when internal microphone activates and enters sleep state. For now, it can be fixed by unplugging the headset & plugging it back in. This only happens when the laptop wakes up after sleep. I'm trying to fix it but no promises :)

Release Candidate 1 - 07.01.2023

Known bugs:

• Headphones / Headsets may produce static noise when you unplug the power adapter. To solve it, put the computer into sleep mode and wake it after waiting for 4 or 5 seconds.
