Update 2: Here are 2 EFI folders from the comments. I haven’t tested these, all credits to the commenters. Thanks!

Update: The macOS Sierra 10.12.4 update breaks backlight brightness control. See below for fixes.

Just in time for April Fools’ day, got a new hackintosh working. And this one even looks like a MacBook Pro!

I present to you, the EliteBook “Pro” (9470m).

EliteBook “Pro” 9470m. Please excuse the messy desktop icons.

The EliteBook 9470m was, if I recall correctly, HP’s second Ultrabook, and their first true “Enterprise” Ultrabook – that is, one with docking capability and easy field repairability . You can find a full review over at NotebookCheck.net.  It was pretty popular with businesses who wanted to give their employees a more affordable and more IT-friendly “MacBook-like” device. Also, it was released back in late 2012, which is just over 4 years ago as of this writing. (Crazy! Time flies.) This means that they can be had relatively cheap in the off-lease market today, as the typical computer lease is between 3-5 years. My local computer store is selling them for under $400, which is a pretty good value in my opinion.

These days, installing macOS is relatively easy compared to 10-12 years ago when I first started messing with Hackintosh/OSx86, so I’ll just post my Clover “EFI” folder which should get you booted into macOS Sierra on the 1366×768 version of the 9470m. I did also swap out the Intel WiFi card for a Dell DW 1510 which works out-of-the-box.

Download my Clover EFI folder (zip 19MB): EFI 3  See below for 10.12.4 brightness fix

Working:

  • Internal graphics with full acceleration, brightness control using scroll lock/pause-break keys
  • Sound via VoodooHDA (built-in mic, speakers as well as TRRS headset jack. Volume and Mute fix in Info.plist necessary)
  • Touchpad with 2-finger scroll
  • Internal PS/2 keyboard
  • 3 USB 3.0 ports
  • Wired gigabit Ethernet
  • WiFi (replacement DW 1510 Broadcom card)
  • Built-in webcam

Not working:

  • Sleep (wakes up instantly)
  • Original Intel 6235 WiFi + Bluetooth
  • TrackPoint/Nub/Nipple mouse
  • Validity Fingerprint reader
  • WiFi on/off button

Not tested (yet):

  • Docking
  • VGA-out
  • DisplayPort-out
  • HDMI Audio
  • SD Card Reader

I will updated the lists as I test more things.

Main reference for this was RehabMan’s Elitebook guide.

10.12.4 Backlight Brightness control fix

Download updated EFI folder (zip 19MB): EFI 10.12.4

Fixes included:

  • Removed NullCPUPowerManagement.kext
  • Updated VoodooHDA.kext/Contents/Info.plist to include Mute Fix
  • Added SSDT-PNLF.aml in ACPI/patched as per guide
  • Edited config.plist to load SSDT-PNLF.aml
  • Fixed backlight control (using this guide)
    • Re-patched DSDT in MacIASL with the following fixes only from “RehabMan-Laptop”:
      • battery_HP-ProBook-4x0s-G1.txt
      • graphics_Rename-GFX0.txt
      • graphics_HD4K_low.txt
    • Added AppleBacklightInjector.kext

    Hey, thanks for the EFI directory. With vanilla 10.12 it works great!

    Was there anything else required to get brightness controls working? For one reason or another, using that EFI 10.12.4 directory doesn’t allow be to control brightness with the keyboard, and no brightness options are listed under System Preferences -> Display either.

    I made some modifications to address the following:

    Boot screen graphical corruption
    Audio
    Screen brightness
    Power management/Speedstep

    EFI Folder here

    I’m using an HP branded Bcm943225hmb which gives both wifi and bluetooth no issue

      Also, the OP’s issue with sleep and wifi button may be related to the card he’s using – sleep works perfectly for me, as does the wifi/bluetooth hardware button.

      I tried to get AppleALC working for a more native audio solution, but it would only playback through headphones instead of internal speakers. It also caused some weird shutdown issues for me.

      Sticking with VoodooHDA in EFI for now.

        Thanks for sharing, I’ll try out your fixes on my machine. Do you mind if I mirror your EFI folder in the post for the sake of completeness?

          Sure, go right ahead.

          I discovered after another clean install that screen brightness still doesn’t work…. I think it has something to do with the VoodooHDA installation. I’ll have to do some more testing on that

            Figured it out brightness!

            Here’s the steps I took after a fresh install:

            Mount EFI partition, copy over contents of downloaded EFI

            Install latest Clover EFI package with “Install only in ESP” and osxaptiofix2drv selected

            Run Kext Utility, wait till it finishes processing, reboot. Brightness adjustment should work after that.

            I suspect it’s repairing permissions or updating some of the cache files that makes the difference, but for me it’s just easier to run kext utility and have it do all of that for me.

            Note that no kexts are actually being installed in the last step, the utility just repairs some permissions/caches.

      Hi C.P, do you get problem while using bluetooth? When I connect speaker via bluetooth, the wifi is automatically turn off and no way to turn it on. After a reboot, wifi works again. I’m using same Bcm943225hmb card like you.

    Hi! I’ve already installed Sierra on my 9470m but I’m still missing the post installation process. Can I simply copy your EFI folder in to my hard drive? Thanks

      Yes ,
      1- install clover to be able to boot from your new mac (i mean without flash memory)
      2- mount the EFI Partition
      3- copy the EFI folder content to your mounted EFI Partition
      4- restart you new mac, enjoy .

            Hi, do you plan to update on High Sierra/Sierra? Is everything working for you so far? I wanna to hackintosh this laptop too, as I have Windows 10 here right now, using 1600×900 resolution too.

            In other words, what are your issues with this hackintosh build, so I will now if it’s even worth. Thank you!

            After replaced wifi card to a BCM943225HMB, I’m using El Capitan and Sierra perfectly. There’s a very small issue that I cannot turn off bluetooth, but it doesn’t matter. Everything works smoothly: wifi, external display (Display Port), sound, battery. I’m developing hybrid app for iOS and Android with no issue.
            Now I stay with Sierra, I’ll try to install High Sierra later.

            Okay, thank you. One more question, when I install macOS (high sierra probably), all I have to do to have all patches and fixes is to load your EFI which you linked above? Thanks.

            Oh…and is your wifi card with bluetooth 4.0?

            Yes, put my EFI folder into EFI partition. After a fresh install, you should rebuild cache using Kext Wizard. I don’t know if it works on High Sierra. It can be used for ElCapitan and Sierra.
            I’m not sure BCM943225HMB has Bluetooth 4.0. You can do some search.

        how do you create a usb high sierra from windows ?

        Could you help me?

          You should check here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/how-to-create-a-macos-high-sierra-public-beta-installation-usb.225520/

          In part “STEP 2: Prepare Bootable USB Drive”, you follow to step 12, stop at “13. Download the latest version of Clover”. You do follow steps instead:
          13. Download Clover Configurator
          14. Mount EFI partition of USB drive
          15. Replace EFI folder in EFI partition
          16. Reboot, type F9, choose booting from EFI file, navigate to EFI\Clover\CLOVERX64.ef
          17. Install High Sierra
          If you’re no luck installing on new APFS, try to use Mac OS Extended (Journaled)

    How much battery life are you getting?
    I’m getting mere 1 hour battery life.

    I am using EFI folder link of which you have posted in the article.

    I noticed the activity monitor crashes if you go to Energy tab and refuses to open unless you delete ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.ActivityMonitor.plist

    Does this mean there’s problem in power-management?

    I have Elitebook 9470m with 1366×786 resolution. CoconutBattery tells me my battery capacity is 2187mAH. Voltage is 16683 mV, putting my battery at 36.5 Whr but isn’t the battery supposed to be 52 Whr?

    Intel Power Gadget app tells me my CPU and GPU vary their frequency (GHz) depending on processing load, so CPU and GPU power management is somewhat right but why such low battery life? Can we modify something to get more battery life? How much battery life others are getting?

    Hey Matthieu,

    Thanks for the files.
    How did you get the webcam support working?
    I also followed RehabMans guide and got everything working except the webcam and mic.
    Did you also get the broadband module working?

      For microphone issue, try some options in System Preferences -> Sound -> Input.

      I did make my WWAN work once as follow this guide, but now it stops working, I don’t know why. https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/elitebook-bcm20702a0-wwan-gps-hspa-minipci-e-un2430-gobi300.186510/

        I see my microphone under Sound but it doesn’t work.
        I plugged in some microphone capable speakers but they also don’t work.
        My WWAN works when I boot from the Clover USB Stick I created but then everything else doesn’t…
        Camera still doesn’t work :/
        Bluetooth also doesn’t work with the Broadcom WiFi+Bluetooth Card but WiFi does.

    HP 9470M Ultrabook I7

    Like to thank the people on this site who posted their EFI and solutions for this model. I now have a High Sierra up and running after spending 2 weeks trying to get Graphics to Work – Had grey screen after booting and could only load OS using a FakeID. I now have 1600*900 thanks to Ngoc Trans ACPI settings.

    I have ordered a DW 1510 Broadcom for Wifi – so cannot verify it but all other items mention working in this post are working for me.

    Again thanks for the info

            Bought on Ebay From Cityeliter Model BCM94360HMB Azurewave AW-CB160H I looked and he is still listing them for sale and I highly recommend him.

            It has smaller wires than what is presently in the Laptop and requires 3 antennas. I had him ship me 1 Mhf4 Antenna and 2 of the connector ipex4 to Ipex 1.

            I connected the antennas in the computer to the outside terminals I think they were 3 and 5. I added the middle terminal to the new antenna.

            Connected to my network I am getting as high as 75 mb downloads which is impressive. Definitely an improvement from when the laptop was windows.

            I was suppose to receive it on April 8th but it arrived almost a month earlier.

            I had an issue after installing the WIFI because I changed my BIOS settings and then it required me to restore a backup to get it working again. What happened is I checked both Wireless Button State and LAN/WLAN Switching which caused my wifi to turn off and I could not turn it back on from either WIFI settings or using Terminal.

            This is what I am using in BIOS with no issues.

            Wireless Button State – Unchecked
            Embedded WLAN Device – Checked
            LAN/WLAN Switching – Unchecked

            Hi Brent,
            I just bought the BCM94360HMB Azurewave AW-CB160H from the same seller you mentioned but forgot to ask him to ship the Mhf4 Antenna, now it’s installed but doesn’t work. Can you snap a picture of the card with the Mhf4 antenna so I can order one on Amazon. Right now I can’t picture what it looks like. Thanks for your time.

      I noticed Ngoc Tran uses an i5 version. For those of us with an i7 do we need to follow rehabman’s instructions to generate an SSDT.aml?

      “If you have an older CPU (Sandy Bridge or Ivy Bridge), use the ssdtPRGen.sh script by Pike R. Alpha: https://github.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh

      Instructions for using it are provided in the README.

      The generated SSDT.aml should be placed on the EFI partition at /EFI/Clover/ACPI/patched/SSDT.aml.”

          to use HDMI Audio, try to open “Audio MIDI Setup”, change Digital-out (HDMI)’s format to “8 ch 16-bit Integer 48.0 kHz”. Hope this works.

    Has anyone setup a dual-boot configuration (Win 10/Sierra) using both the mSATA and a 2.5 SSD? If so, how would you recommend I go about doing this? Sorry I’m such a noob.

      I tried this but no luck because it only showed mSATA drive while booting when it was cold start. That mean you’re only able to choose booting from mSATA if you shutdown completely. Restart doesn’t work

        For dual boot windows with Mac:
        1. Setup Mac on your machine.
        2. Create a sperate partition using “Disk Utility”, make the partition MS-DOS (Fat)
        3. Get a flash memory and machine already working with windows
        4. Download Rufus it’s free
        5. Open Rufus and brows to your windows iso file
        6. In Rufus second dropdown menu from the top select the last choice which starting with “GPT”
        7. Click Start in Rufus
        8. Once Rufus finished, eject your USB and insert it in the Hackintosh machine
        9. Start your Hackintosh machine boot into windows flash disk
        10. Do you remember the created partition using “Disk Utility”, once you find it while you’re installing windows “DON’T DELETE IT”, but you can select format
        11. Then Install the windows in this partition
        12. after the windows installation finished
        13. Restart your machine and open Mac using clover
        14. Mount EFI partition, open EFI folder in it
        15. Backup the Microsoft folder in there, so if something happen to your EFI partition or your clover partition, you can reinstall Hackintosh and paste the Microsoft folder into the EFI folder that exist in the EFI partition after you finished, so you can log to installed Windows again.

        Thats It.

    Helpful tip, make sure CSM is disabled (Native UEFI) in the BIOS and in Clover Configurator set the proper screen resolution (under the Gui tab) to make the clover boot screen appear at the proper resolution.

    Thanks to Ngoc Tran for posting his EFI with the 1600×900 resolution file.

    1) Dual Boot on separate drives working:
    I have installed Sierra w/EFI partition on the 2.5 SSD and Win 10 on a 256GB mSATA SSD and it works perfectly, but you will need to have UEFI hybrid with CSM checked in your bios. (This also means that the proper screen resolution for the clover boot screen won’t work)

    2) Used an AzureWave Broadcom BCM94352HMB/BCM94352 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JY6X9HM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and Both wifi and BT 4.0LE work great if you follow this guide: https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/292542-airport-pcie-half-mini/?page=1

    I used it because it was cheaper than the BCM94360HMB/AzureWave AW-CB160H that works natively, but also has similar specs

    3) Battery life under OS X Sierra is 1hr versus the 3+ hours I get under windows 10…might this be the speedstep aml that needs to be generated for the I7?

    4) Disabling the requiring password after sleep makes me feel uneasy. Has anyone found a solution for this?

    5) iTunes movies (protected) won’t play…seems to be an issue with the Ivy Bridge processors

    I’m grateful to you providing us – the owners of 9470m – with EFI folder, I setup Sierra and updated the EFI folder with the one you uploaded, and every thing working excellent, except the intel HD 4000, the resolution is excellent and VRam is 1593, but it’s lagging I don’t know why?

    Good news for audiophile, I have patched an AppleHDA kext work on all Mac version so you don’t need VoodooHDA anymore, now you have better speaker and better mic, auto detect headphone and etc…, I only can say that it really native. Please install my DSDT in ACPI/Patched and DummyHDA, CodecCommander kext in Kexts/Others.
    Note that you must use my DSDT(I re-compiled from Matthieu’s DSDT to make AppleHDA work).
    This is the Clover folder work with 10.13.3 and you can upgrade to 10.13.4, please don’t try to install 10.13.4, I can’t make 10.13.4 installer work (you still try it). I also updated all kext and clover bootloader to lasted version.
    This is the screenshot show how AppleHDA work like a charm: https://goo.gl/PZr18G
    and this is CLOVER folder: https://goo.gl/1fFzyP
    Please report me all problem to http://facebook.com/hello.hieutran

    Hey
    i’ve been a this for a couple of days now. at first the installer would not boot for me. double and tripple checked BIOS settings. they are all good . problem i have now is. i was able to install it. but whenever i boot clover. it does not see any drives. not the install partition on the USB drive nor the installed sierra/high sierra (tried both several times) did anyone encounter this issue and came up with a solution? aout ready to pull my hair out and just revert back to windows.

      I was also frustrated with the missing “Install High Sierra” boot entry. I cracked it. Use Unibeast 8.3.2 to install high Sierra installer on usb stick. Use clover configuration to mount the efi on the sub stick. Clone ngoc latest efi from https://github.com/ngoctp/clover-uefi-hp-folio-9470m-1600×900.
      Replace /efi/clover/kexts on the stick with ngoc’s /efi/clover/kexts. Boot the stick and install high Sierra.

      Thanks to Matthieu for starting the ball rolling on 9470m hackintosh.

      Thanks to Ngoc n Osman for sharing your awesome efi so that hackintosh newbie like me can enjoy.

            If u r gonna install Mpjave then use this EFI.
            Mount the EFI partition with Colver Configurator then replace the EFI folder’s content with this

    For anyone having problems with the JMicron Card Reader, you have to install two KEXTS – JMB38X.kext and HSSDBlockStorage.kext.

    They both have to be installed in the /Library/Extensions/ folder. They DO NOT work when just installed in the clover boot EFI/Clover/kexts/other location.

    To install them to the /Library/Extensions/ folder:

    1. In terminal, change current directory to your boot EFI/Clover/kexts/Other folder.

    2. In Terminal, copy both kexts directories like:
    cp -a JMB38X.kext /Library/Extensions/
    cp -a HSSDBlockStorage.kext /Library/Extensions/

    3. Remove both kexts from EFI/Clover/kexts/Other boot partition using:
    rm -r JMB38X.kext
    rm -r HSSDBlockStorage.kext

    4. Set permissions and ownership with these two commands:
    sudo chmod -R 755 /Library/Extensions/*
    sudo chown -R root:wheel /Library/Extensions/*

    5. Re-Build Cache/Pre-linked Kernel with these two commands:
    sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel
    sudo kextcache -system-caches
    Ignore any errors about invalid signatures.

    6. Reboot.

    You will not see the card reader in the standard Apple Hardware list. However, when you insert an actual card, it should appear under devices in Finder.

    Hi guys,
    today I installed Mojave 10.14.2 on my 9470m / i5 / 1600×900.
    Thanks to all your hints it did run quite smoothly! WTG! Webcam working, card reader working, Bluetooth and Ethernet working.

    Open issues are:
    – no audio … tried ALC with layout 3 … still nothing
    – no brightness control – the 10.12 fix does not seem to work for 10.14
    – WiFI … which replacement card would you recommend for the 9470m and Mojave?

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,

          I did a fresh install of 10.14.2. Everything works including brightness. 😁

            Congrats Yahgoo!

            Would you mind sharing your Clover and /Library/Extensions folder?

            @Tomfodd,
            I would suggest to follow below steps:
            1. Download Mojave installer from App Store
            2. Use Unibeast 9.0 to burn installer into usb stick
            3. Wait for 30mins for UniBeast to complete
            4. Download Clover Configurator
            5. Use Optio.drv, remove aptio
            6. Boot to Clover
            7. Set boot arg to -v UseKernelCache=No
            8. Install Mojave

            Take a photo of last error message when the installation is stuck.
            What is your hardware? Apfs is the default file system on the boot disk for Mojave.
            Good luck 🙂

            Thanks yahgoo! Would you be so kind as to list the exact steps you performed?

            Fantastic Yahgoo!!!

            Thanks a lot, this fix also solved my brightness problem 🙂

            Great to have folks like you!

            I wanna take this opportunity to thank Matthieu n Ngoc Tran. I bought my 9470m after reading Matthieu’s blog. My High Sierra and Mojave hackintosh would not have been possible without Ngoc’s EFI.

            @JD, below are the simple steps to get you started:
            1. Download Mojave installer from App Store
            2. Use Unibeast 9.0 to burn installer into usb stick
            3. Wait for 30mins for UniBeast to complete
            4. Download Clover Configurator
            5. Use Optio.drv, remove aptio
            6. Boot to Clover
            7. Set boot arg to -v UseKernelCache=No
            8. Install Mojave

            I am still trying to figure out how to fix graphics and audio with the new methods of Lilu.kext, whatevergreen.kext and Intel FB’s patcher.

    Hi, Thanks guys for sharing and continuing to support this thread 🙂

    Can anyone confirm or deny that dual boot (win10 and macos) with two separate drives (msata and 2.5inch) is possible, please?

      Yes, it is possible but I wouldn’t recommend it if you are running APFS on the Mac drive
