S400CA Asus - macOS Catalina BOOT! (WIP)

I managed to boot and install macOS Catalina on my S400CA laptop. I found very few resources related to this exact model, but with a lot of research, I was able to create an EFI that booted Catalina successfully.

MacOS Catalina Versão 10.15.7 - Hackintosh S400ca Asus

Hardware:

• Processor: i5 3317U - Ivy Bridge

• GPU: Integrated Intel 4000

• RAM: 10 GB DDR3 1600 MHz

• Laptop Model: Asus Vivobook S400CA i5 model

• Audio Codec: Realtek ALC270

• Ethernet Card: Realtek Gigabit Ethernet

• Wi-Fi/BT Card: Atheros AR5B97

• Touchscreen: Yes

• Touchpad: Yes

• BIOS Revision: BIOS Version 210

Guide: Dortania OpenCore, various forums, and YouTube videos

What works:

• Wi-Fi (I had to add some Kexts to get it working)

• Keyboard

• Trackpad 90%, some bugs (e.g., difficulty dragging icons, it ends up clicking unintentionally)

• USB Ports

• iCloud (I think, haven't tested)

• Battery and charge percentage

• Booting and restarting without issues

What doesn't work:

• Internal audio and 3.5mm output both don't work

• Screen brightness

• Integrated graphics card

• iMessage, etc. (Do I need an iPhone connected to the Apple ID?)

• Touchscreen

• Ethernet

• Keyboard - it doesn't recognize some keys like Control

• Touchpad

Problems:

• I can't adjust the brightness, the keys don't work either

• The integrated graphics card is an Intel 4000, but only 3 MB of video memory is allocated

• The screen resolution doesn't seem to be at its maximum

• Over time, the screen can become static, but a slight touch on the touchpad refreshes it, not a major issue

Extras:

• I had to make some adjustments in the config.plist to solve a problem I faced at the beginning of the Catalina installation. The screen was divided into 4 parts, showing the same image four times, making it impossible to read or see anything. After some research, I found the root of the problem and changed the config.plist, and the screen worked perfectly, but with the limitation of 3 MB of VRAM.

• I also had to find a compatible Kext for my Wi-Fi network card. After some research, I found one, and now it works perfectly.

What's still missing?

• Graphics Card: Need to increase the 3 MB

• Audio: Still haven't managed to get the audio working

• Boot from SSD without the USB drive
