## Installation

**Please download [the latest release](https://github.com/xxxzc/xps15-9570-macos/releases/latest).**

You may refer to [[EN] bavariancake/XPS9570-macOS](https://github.com/bavariancake/XPS9570-macOS) and [[CN] LuletterSoul/Dell-XPS-15-9570-macOS-Mojave](https://github.com/LuletterSoul/Dell-XPS-15-9570-macOS-Mojave) for the installation guide and solutions to some common issues.

But note that please create an issue **in this repository** if you encounter any problem when **using this config** (Please don't disturb others). My writing in English is poooooor:(, but I can read :).

### Headphone

~~@qeeqez found layout-id 30 is good to drive headphone without PluginFix([Overall Audio State](https://github.com/daliansky/XiaoMi-Pro/issues/96)), and it also works for me.~~ 

After updating to 10.15, headphone will be distorted after a few minutes in battery mode. 

You have to install [ComboJack](https://github.com/hackintosh-stuff/ComboJack/tree/master/ComboJack_Installer):

1. remove CodecCommander.kext and uninstall ALCPlugFix
2. put VerbStub.kext in kext folder
3. set layout-id to 72 
4. run install.sh

### Sleep Wake

```shell
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 0
sudo pmset -a standby 0
sudo pmset -a proximitywake 0
sudo pmset -b tcpkeepalive 0 (optional)
```

> `-b` - Battery `-c` - AC Power `-a` - Both

Please uncheck all options (except `Prevent computer from sleeping...`, which is optional) in the `Energy Saver` panel.

### SN MLB SmUUID

Please use your own SN, MLB (use [MacInfoPkg](https://github.com/acidanthera/MacInfoPkg) or Clover Configurator or [Hackintool](https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/release-hackintool-v2-8-6.254559/)) and SmUUID.

```sh
python update.py --set sn=xxx mlb=yyy smuuid=zzz
python update.py --gen # generate and use new SN, MLB and SmUUID
```

As for SmUUID, **please use your Windows system UUID**: run  `wmic csproduct get UUID` in CMD, because OpenCore will use SystemUUID you set in OC/config.plist to boot Windows.

### FHD Display

If you are using FHD(1080p) display, you may want to enable font smoothing:

```
defaults write -g CGFontRenderingFontSmoothingDisabled -bool NO
```

If your laptop display is 1080p, you should set uiscale to :

```sh
python update.py --set uiscale=1
```

and change `dpcd-max-link-rate` value `FAAAAA==` to `CgAAAA==` in config.plist.

### DW1820a

You have to add following config to Device Properties:

```xml
<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1c,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)</key>
<dict>
    <key>pci-aspm-default</key>
    <integer>0</integer>
</dict>
```

See [THE Solution:Dell DW1820A](https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/the-solution-dell-dw1820a-broadcom-bcm94350zae-macos-15.288026/)

### CLOVER Theme

You can set theme to one of these [themes](https://sourceforge.net/p/cloverefiboot/themes/ci/master/tree/themes/).

```sh
python update.py --set theme=xxx # will download if not exist
```

### NTFS Writing

Add `UUID=xxx none ntfs rw,auto,nobrowse` to `/etc/fstab`, **xxx** is the UUID of your NTFS partition. 

If your NTFS partition has Windows installed, you need to run `powercfg -h off`  in powershell in Windows to disable hibernation.

### Touchpad and touchscreen

Touchpad can run in two modes:

1. GPIO mode with SSDT-TPDX.aml

   1\~4% kernel_task cpu usage when idle but cause 10\~30% cpu usage when in use

2. Polling mode without SSDT-TPDX.aml

   always 10~15% kernel_task cpu usage

WCOM touchscreen runs in polling mode by default and running in GPIO mode will stop to working after sleep. If you don't need touchscreen, you can use this [SSDT-TPDX.aml.zip](https://github.com/xxxzc/xps15-9570-macos/files/4169746/SSDT-TPDX.aml.zip) to disable touchscreen.

### Tap Delay

- Turn off `Enable dragging` or use `three finger drag` to avoid one-finger tap delay.
- Turn off `Smart zoom` to avoid two-finger tap delay.
